How it works

How the evaluated method works

A marker-gene matching procedure and expectation–maximisation reduce false-positive taxonomic calls while retaining supported taxa. Magnet is a separate whole-genome verification tool.

legacy kinds
model
entity classification
review date: 2026-09-17; rationale: This source-scoped entry preserves the method/configuration actually named in an evaluation. It is neither a global family identity nor proof of an immutable checkpoint; the linked evaluation retains adaptation, fitting and scoring details.; source ids: lemur-magnet-2024; source locator: Abstract (paragraph 1); Methods/Competitive read alignment with Magnet (paragraph 1) | Abstract (paragraph 1); Introduction (paragraph 3); ambiguities: Configuration means the source-labelled evaluated identity. It does not establish missing checkpoint hashes, default settings or equivalence to same-named records in other papers.
