Comments
on comparing CD-HIT and the UCLUST algorithm in USEARCH.
COSTELLO results
Fig
1. Execution time
Times in seconds on the Costello benchmark at selected
clustering thresholds. Yellow boxes give USEARCH speed
compared to CD-HIT-EST. CD-HIT-EST fails with clustering
thresholds below 80%.
Fig
2. Nucleotide clustering sensitivity
Sensitivity
is measured as the average cluster size (see
Methods). Yellow boxes give the relative sensitivity of
USEARCH compared to CD-HIT-EST.
CD-HIT-EST fails
with clustering thresholds below 80%.
