Evaluation of the asthma classifier on test sets of independent subjects with non-asthma respiratory conditions. Performance statistics of the classifier when applied to external microarray-generated data sets of nasal gene expression derived from case/control cohorts with non-asthma respiratory conditions. Performance is shown in terms of F-measure (A and C), a conservative mean of precision and sensitivity, as well as positive (B) and negative predictive values (D). The classifier had a low to zero rate of misclassifying other respiratory conditions as asthma, supporting that the classifier is specific to asthma and would not misclassify other respiratory conditions as asthma.
