View Full Version : How does the current scoring compare to RMSD?

How does the current scoring that's being done for the unknown proteins of CASP5 compare to RMSD scoring that used to be done for the system-testing proteins before? I cannot find the post by Howard that explained it a little. Anyone remember where he posted that? If so, could you give a link to it or cut and paste it into this thread? Also, I'm wondering how well we're doing. Seems like we're barely breaking the halfway mark on this new scoring system. Are we doing about as expected? Worse? Better?

The scoring of the current CASP protein as compared to our previous proteins is discussed here: http://bane.free-dc.org/forum/showthread.php3?s=&threadid=883

Hope this helps :p

Thanks, but I'm looking for the one by Howard that talks about how the current scoring is based on 100 (of something or other ... vaguely remember him saying something about counting pairs of something or other) and how the lower the score, the better. I looked through that thread you gave a link to twice and couldn't find Howard talking about that or any reference to the actual numbers of the scoring or such by anyone. I'm almost positive that Howard explained a bit about this in some thread. Been looking around through other threads too and cannot find it.

Doh! :rolleyes: I don't know why I missed that. It even had it in its title. Also, I've add a little question onto that thread.
