  1. Accuracy indicates the percentage of correctly classified samples in the cross-validation study, sensitivity reflects accuracy in identifying the obese samples and specificity indicates the ability to detect control (lean) samples. The p-value is the relative amount of higher prediction accuracies found after 1000 permutations. The %increase values reflect how much the accuracy would increase if that dataset was included in the data fusion model when compared with a fusion model comprising only the two other datasets.
