Factors




True Positive (TP):

It's the number of matchings in the reference structure, which are correctly predicted. This factor can be used for evaluating the homology degree for the two structures.

False Negative (FN):

It's the number of present matchings in the reference structure, which are not predicted.

False Positive (FP):

It's the number of present matchings in the predicted structure, which are not in the reference structure.

Epsilon (ε):

Defined by Gardner and Giegerich [BMC Bioinformatics, 2004].
