Figure 4.1: ROC curve for hNMa
Lower values of the first normal mode displacement (solid line) correspond to hinges, as
shown by an area under the curve significantly greater than 0.5. The same is not true of
the second (dashed line) and third (dotted line) normal modes, which have almost no
predictive power. The slope at the origin is not very steep, reflecting the fact that wide
regions of proteins often had small or zero displacement, leading to ambiguous
predictions. Regions of high displacement, however, were rather confidently excluded
from containing hinges.
