AGEP performance in finding correct tissue of origin for a set of samples was benchmarked by using both nearest-neighbor and SVM, the latter being one of the most powerful classifying engines available [ 27- 29].
The performance of the RiboSEQ GBS real-time PCR test for the detection of GBS in clinical samples was benchmarked against the performance of the commercially available FDA-approved BD GeneOhm™ StrepB Assay which targets the CAMP factor B (cfb) gene.
Additionally three different combinations of descriptor sets also sampled individually were benchmarked.
Individual sample weights were benchmarked using the mid-year population estimates provided by Statistics South Africa for the respective survey years 2002, 2005 and 2008.
To assess the accuracy of 3' tag DGE, gene expression levels were benchmarked against MAQC sample TaqMan qPCR data [ 19].
Three datasets were benchmarked in Figure 6.
The sample characteristics will be benchmarked against existing data to assess the representativeness of key subgroups.
Results: cnvOffSeq was benchmarked on whole-exome sequencing samples from the 1000 Genomes Project.
The information collected is benchmarked against results previously obtained from a sample group.
