The margin in performance is most pronounced when the sequence similarity between the training and test sets drops below 40%, wherein, at a relatively high-confidence threshold of above 50%, PHIStruct presents a 7% to 9% increase in class-averaged F1 over machine learning tools that do not directly incorporate structure information, as well as a 5% to 6% increase over BLASTp. +**Results:** Compared against recent tools, PHIStruct exhibits the best balance of precision and recall, with the highest and most stable F1 score across a wide range of confidence thresholds and sequence similarity settings.
