  1. For each dataset, we indicate the ProteoCast functionality evaluated, the number of data points, the comparison methods used, whether these methods are supervised, and whether the evaluation benchmark was used in the original method publications (indicating potential use during development). Main results are summarised with references to corresponding tables and figures.
  2. aThe methods were trained on other CAID versions or other binding datasets.
