Correctly threaded matches

Structure prediction methods have to be validated using comprehensive and representative benchmark sets. A couple of benchmark sets have been proposed [188, 199, 270] consisting of a fold library and a list of structurally similar protein pairs without significant sequence similarity. Such a benchmark [335] involves using the method in question to thread one protein of each pair against the library and to count the number of successful recognitions of the structural match or the number of correct identifications of related protein pairs. A couple of methods have been evaluated this way.
