Story summary
- The process analyzes user genomes with vConTACT3 and clusters them into five protein cluster profiles based on varying identities.
- A distance matrix is created for each profile and converted into a genome-annotated network.
- The network is filtered and repaired to improve accuracy, then the guilt-by-genome-association (GBGA) assigner predicts virus realms.
- GBGA aggregates predictions into final realms, which are compared with reference sequences to compute performance metrics and generate user-friendly outputs.
