Figure 3.

The four perturbation models (see Table 3 and Figure 2) were applied to five different ground truth networks, using a range of model parameters to adjust the number of reconstruction errors introduced. Each set of three bars in the above panels represents a single perturbation model and set of model parameters, applied to the five ground truth networks with results scored by three metrics. Bar height is the mean score of the five reconstructions for the specified metric and model parameter, with error bars extending from the lowest score to the highest score. In many cases the error range is very tight, owing to the similarity of the five ground truth networks and the uniform and consistent manner in which perturbation models introduce simulated reconstruction errors.
