Figure 8: Complete pathway discovery quality versus experimental cost.

From: An Evaluation of Active Learning Causal Discovery Methods for Reverse-Engineering Local Causal Pathways of Gene Regulation

Figure 8

Quality of complete pathway discovery is measured by the combined sensitivity/specificity (distance) metric, whereas experimental cost is measured by number of experiments over total number of genes. Algorithms located closer to the bottom left corner of the graph have better structural discovery performance in terms of both quality and cost.
