Overall performance of the method on a set of known trans-splicing regions (tenfold cross-validation of 214 EST mapped trans-splicing sites). Each test dataset had on average 21.5 known trans-splicing regions, of which on average 17 had predictions. Missing predictions indicate those sequences for which no high-confidence prediction was available or where the nearest prediction was more than 50 nucleotides away. The mean of all ten datasets is reported with the range of values in parentheses.
