(A) For all algorithms we used as input the benchmark set, the PWMs of OCT4, SOX2, NANOG and one random PWM. NM: number of modules present in the output for those runs where the RR = 1 (average over runs where RR = 1). SRR (summation of recovery rate): number of runs for which the output contained a module corresponding to the valid modules (OCT4, SOX2, NANOG or combinations thereof). Sn: number of genes containing the valid module in the output (average of runs for which RR was 1). (B) Similar to (A) but using OCT4, SOX2, NANOG in combination with 7 randomly selected PWMs.
