*This test is based on a subset of Swiss-Prot, of which mutations can be processed by all these 5 tools, including totally 18660 damaging variants and 28863 neutral variants.

**Swiss-Prot trained EFIN is validated by 10 fold cross-validation, and all these statistical measures are average values. Standard deviation is described within brackets after each measure.
