Comparison of classifier performance across two data sets.

The top table shows the average classifier performance for cross-validation on the 9-locus public STR data. The bottom table is the performance for the same test, but on a 9-locus subset of our ground-truth training data. While overall performance is lower than the 15-locus cross-validation test on our ground-truth data (Table 1), the two data sets perform similarly here, indicating that increasing the number of markers in the data set can significantly improve performance.
