“…Then we computed precision and recall based on comparison of inferred GRNs to the ground truth GRNs ( Fig S4A-B ) against 13 other GRN inference methods (GENIE3 (Huynh-Thu et al ., 2010), GRNBoost2 (Moerman et al ., 2019), PPCOR (Kim, 2015), PyEpoch (E. Y. Su et al ., 2022), LEAP (Specht and Li, 2017), PIDC (Chan et al ., 2017), SCRIBE (Qiu et al ., 2020), SINCERITIES (Papili Gao et al ., 2018), SINGE (Deshpande et al ., 2022), SCODE (Matsumoto et al ., 2017), GRISLI (Aubin-Frankowski and Vert, 2020), GRNVBEM (Sanchez-Castillo et al ., 2018), IQCELL (Heydari et al ., 2021)). To be as fair as possible in this comparison, we selected edge weight thresholds that optimized F1 for those methods that produce edge weights (all methods except OneSC and IQCELL).The mean F1 score, which is the harmonic mean of precision and recall, of OneSC’s GRNs was 0.61 which was as good as or higher than other GRN inference methods applied to the same data ( Fig 2A ).…”
