Comparison of gold standard pairs recovered by PE and DPEA. Comparison between the sets of gold standard pairs recovered among the 3,005 pairs considered as high-confidence predictions of the DPEA method and among the 3,000 top scoring pairs selected by the PE method with pw-score cutoffs of 0.01 and 0.05. In red are the numbers of difficult gold standard pairs predicted. In the set of 185 gold standard interactions recovered among the 3,005 high-confidence domain pairs by the DPEA method, only 5 are in the difficult category. In comparison, among the 3,000 top scoring domain interactions reported by the PE method with a pw-score cutoff of 0.05, there are 46 difficult pairs (75 difficult pairs with cutoff 0.01).
