Average sensitivities (Sn), Positive Predictive Value (PPV) and geometric accuracy (ACC g) are reported together with the false positive rate using scrambled sequences (FPR s). The best-performing tools, MCast and FIMO are highlighted in bold. Performance was evaluated using the 14 PWMs in the PAZAR-J dataset
