AFproject is a free service for objective performance comparison of alignment-free sequence comparison tools on different datasets.
This community developed web-service aims at simplyfing and standardizing the benchmarking of alignment-free tools. And for the users, the benchmarks provide a way to identify the most effective methods for the problem at hand.
AFproject reports performance assessment of alignment-free methods across 12 reference data sets, which are divied into 5 research applications.
AFproject provides performance reports of alignment-free methods for every reference data set. Click on a bar to see the report.
Provide us your own pairwise distances for given data set. After uploading your predictions, you will be able to compare the quality of your predictions against other alignment-free methods.
