Classifier information

V6 classifiers (version v0)


Fecal signatures were characterized in 6 sources including: human (sewage), dog, cow, deer, pig and herbivore (created from cow and deer samples).

Attributes of the classifiers are summarized in the table below. Sequences included in the classifiers are listed here, and the individual predictions are detailed here.

Abbreviations: TP: true positive (sample correctly classified), FN: false negative (sample not classified as expected), TN: true negative (sample should not be classified, that is should be classified as “unknown”), FP: false positive (sample classified while it was not expected). Specificity is the number of TNs divided by the sum of TNs and FPs. Sensitivity is the number of TPs divided by the sum of TPs and FNs.






V4 classifiers (version v0)


Fecal signatures were characterized in 6 sources including: human (sewage), dog, cattle, pig, ruminant (created from cow and deer samples) and herbivore (created from cow, deer and horse samples).

Attributes of the classifiers are summarized in the table below. Sequences included in the classifiers are listed here, and the individual predictions are detailed here.
