Fig. 3From: INSaFLU-TELEVIR: an open web-based bioinformatics suite for viral metagenomic detection and routine genomic surveillanceSimplified illustration of the benchmark of the virus identification pipeline (TELEVIR) module components, which is described in detail in Additional file 1. A Tree representation of module combinations. From left to right, sections represent pipeline steps (exemplified for Illumina) as followed at runtime: (1) Quality Control, (2) Viral Enrichment, (3) Assembly, (4) Contig Classification, (5) Read Classification. Nodes represent software, parameters, or databases compared. Color gradient corresponds to the product of four assessment statistics: mapped reads proportion, horizontal coverage, true positive rate, and completeness (proportion of hits with both read and contig evidence). Statistics were standardized by their respective maxima. B Heatmap representation of software benchmarked for Illumina samples, parameters not discriminated, color code at the bottom. C Table of individual statistics for each node, standardized across samples as in A. For panels A and C, darker colors = lower values, lighter colors = higher valuesBack to article page
