Get focused on eucaryotic genes with augustus

Open StromTroopers opened this issue 4 years ago • 0 comments

Hello, I need to predict strict eucaryotic genes from my genome, for that I use Augustus with training parameters used before and I remove gene predicted when they do not have intron in their sequence (typical signature of non-eucaryote sequence).

But it appears that even by doing that Augustus still predicts gene sfrom non-eucaryotic origin ( even with intron in their sequences).

So my question is:

  1. 1- is there a way to be more stingent in order to only catch eucaryotic genes

  2. 2- is there a way to get statistical values giving the probability that a predicted gene is really from eucaryotic origin ?

I saw in the doc that there were two kind of statistics :

POSTERIOR PROBABILITIES

For this one I do not see the posterior probabilities affected to predicted genes , maybe there is a particular obtion to activate?

and

the MEA USING THE MAXIMUM EXPECTED ACCURACY APPROACH

with the option -mae

For this one I do not realy understand, what are we expecting to see in the output file ? Is there a metric wich tells us how much we can be confident about a predicted gene ?

Thank you for your help
