The sensitivity of the HBM is shown at 0.99 specificity and 0.95 specificity for all four of the datasets used in this study. All values were obtained using a value of 0.99 for the individual tool specificity parameter. The abbreviation "comm" refers to peptides derived from the community binding database, while "lit" refers to peptides gathered from the literature.
