Table II.

Simulation results for XCI escape gene analysis. Mean sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy are calculated across the 100 replications and defined with respect to identifying escape genes based upon PPjg > 0. Performance measures for discordant genes under the informative prior are based upon the subset of 10 genes with inaccurate prior definitions.
