Comparison of STM to competing clustering methods for the yeast protein-protein interaction data set for clusters with 5 or more members. The Number column indicates the number of clusters identified by each method, the Size column indicates the average number of proteins in each cluster; the Discard% indicates the percentage of proteins not assigned to any cluster. The -log p values for biological function and cellular location are shown.
