Critical Assessment of Function Annotation

<p>The Critical Assessment of Functional Annotation (CAFA) is an experiment designed to provide a large-scale assessment of computational methods dedicated to <a href="/facts/Protein_function_prediction/gWHSRSpr">predicting protein function</a>. Different <a href="/facts/Algorithms/fnl5NmRt">algorithms</a> are evaluated by their ability to predict the <a href="/facts/Gene_Ontology/Grmg6Q8k">Gene Ontology</a> (GO) terms in the categories of <a href="/facts/Gene_ontology/Grmg6Q8k">Molecular Function</a>, <a href="/facts/Gene_ontology/Grmg6Q8k">Biological Process</a>, and <a href="/facts/Gene_ontology/Grmg6Q8k">Cellular Component</a>.
</p><p>The experiment consists of two tracks: (i) the <a href="/facts/Eukaryotic/SkwyPLMA">eukaryotic</a> track, 
(ii) the <a href="/facts/Prokaryotic/oYyvaDDH">prokaryotic</a> track. In each track, a set of targets is provided by the organizers. Participants are expected to submit their predictions by the submission deadline, after which they are assessed according to a set of specific metrics.
