The dSCC value between the input distance matrix and the representative model for chromosome 1 – 22 of the GM06990 cell line using convergence constant (epsilon): 1, 0.5, 0.1, 0.01, 0.0001, and 0.00001 respectively. The average dSCC values across the chromosomes show that the results are highly comparable. The epsilon = 0.0001 has the highest average dSCC score, hence, we set it as the default epsilon value for 3DMax. The bold text represents the highest dSCC value
