Table 2.

Examples of how performance evaluation metrics were calculated

Example # Character GSM value # GSM values Extracted value # extracted values Rigid hit score Relaxed hit score
1 %G + C 55.2 │ mol% 1 55.2 │ mol% 1 1 1
2 Organic Compounds NOT Used or NOT Hydrolyzed esculin 1 Neither lactate nor pyruvate 1 0 0
3 Cell Shape short plump │ rods 1 plump │ rods # short 2 0.5 1
4 Motility not │ motile by gliding 1 not │ motile 1 0.5 0.5
5 Fermentation Substrates Used arbutin # salicin # D-raffinose # D-mannose # sucrose # melibiose 6 melibiose # sucrose # D-mannose # D-raffinose # salicin # Most strains ferment arbutin 6 5.5 6
Total 10 11 7.5 8.5
