While PROXIMAL distinguishes itself from other tools in its level of specificity and in its ranking system, the comparison of PROXIMAL with other methods was based on a small set of experimentally verified test cases.
Its internal consistency yields an alpha coefficient of 0.93, its sensitivity level 0.45 and its level of specificity 0.92.
Each list is associated with its level of confidence, coverage and specificity.
A significant property of the legume-rhizobial symbiosis is its high level of specificity [ 5, 18- 20].
Thus, depending on the level of specificity of classification, the contribution of features can be either early -subserving ultra-rapid but coarse categorisation as in the studies of Thorpe and Herrmann research groups- or late -subserving entry-level categorisation that was examined in this study.
Cases are further categorized as probable or confirmed, depending on the level of specificity associated with the laboratory testing.
Whereas in NetAffx the UniGene identifier is determined according to the probe set's representative sequence (i.e., the sequence used to design the probe set), we have independently mapped the probes and attributed a quality tag depending on the level of specificity [ 50].
The 43 innovations identified were categorized based on two criteria: level of specificity (general, recognizable, branded) and type of change (pedagogical, content, both, neither).
The model detected risk of abuse an average of 10-30 months in advance, depending on the chosen level of specificity.
As expected, the relatively low prevalence of the abuse diagnosis as a percentage of all patients in the dataset resulted in a low positive predictive value, depending on the chosen level of specificity.
Still, Turovsky is suspicious of the level of specificity in U.S. reporting on Russian hackers.
