Characteristics of Repeat Families Used in Calculation
| Name | Bases (L i ) | Segments (R i ) | Average percent similarity (1 − ɛ * i,family ) |
| ALU | 340 | 1 × 106 | 85 |
| LINE | 5,000 | 100,000 | 85 |
| LG1 | 10,000 | 1,000 | 90 |
| LG2 | 100,000 | 20 | 90 |
-
↵LG1 and LG2 are hypothetical families used to simulate long, low-copy repeats.
