| | 5 | The purpose of a HotspotMeasure can be easily defined: it is to measure the quality of a given hotspot. That is, in particular, scoring the alignment contained. |
| | 6 | |
| | 7 | A few conditions have to hold in order to get a usable HotspotMeasure: |
| | 8 | 1. The value returned is non negative. |
| | 9 | 2. Higher values mean better hotspot quality. |
| | 10 | 3. Size does matter! That is, a perfectly aligned small hotspot must score less than a perfectly aligned bigger one. Size in this context meaning the number of classes in the hotspot. |
| | 11 | |
| | 12 | Additionally, the confidence of the alignment relations should be taken into account in some way. |
