NAME

       gt-eval - Compare annotation files and show accuracy measures (prediction vs. reference).

SYNOPSIS

       gt eval reference_file prediction_file

DESCRIPTION

       -nuc [yes|no]
           evaluate nucleotide level (memory consumption is proportional to the input file sizes)
           (default: yes)

       -ltr [yes|no]
           evaluate a LTR retrotransposon prediction instead of a gene prediction (all
           LTR_retrotransposon elements are considered to have an undetermined strand) (default:
           no)

       -ltrdelta [value]
           set allowed delta for LTR borders to be considered equal (default: 20)

       -v [yes|no]
           be verbose (default: no)

       -o [filename]
           redirect output to specified file (default: undefined)

       -gzip [yes|no]
           write gzip compressed output file (default: no)

       -bzip2 [yes|no]
           write bzip2 compressed output file (default: no)

       -force [yes|no]
           force writing to output file (default: no)

       -help
           display help and exit

       -version
           display version information and exit

       The program shows sensitivity and specificity values for certain feature types (e.g.,
       gene, mRNA, and exon). For some feature types the number of missing and wrong features of
       that type is also shown. Thereby, “missing” means the number of features of that type from
       the “reference” without overlap to a feature of that type from the “prediction”. Vice
       versa, “wrong” denotes the number of features of that type from the “prediction” without
       overlap to a feature of that type from the “reference”.
