Use of a Novel Grammatical Inference Approach in Classification of Amyloidogenic Hexapeptides

Table 4

Performance of compared methods on Waltz, WALTZ-DB, and exPafig databases in terms of Sensitivity (Sen), Specificity (Spe), and Matthews Correlation Coefficient (MCC). The results are ordered by decreasing Average MCC (Ave MCC).
