- Median best DockQ among 1 and among 100 samples for AlphaFold3, Boltz-2, Boltz-1 and Chai-1 on 106 nanobody-antigen complexes
- rationale
- Shows how much sampling raises the best available nanobody-antigen model for four tools. Proxy evidence: the best sample is picked with the experimental structure, the set mixes training and held-out systems, and the source is a not yet peer reviewed.
- constraints
- Inspect every linked evaluation's source locator and preserved limitations before citing a result.; Do not combine this mapping's evaluations with any other protocol's results; complex sets, sampling and metrics differ.; Results for one complex class do not establish performance in another.; Structural accuracy and confidence are not evidence that an interaction exists, how strong it is or that an experiment will work.
- limitations
- Best-of-N DockQ needs the experimental structure to pick the best sample, so it is an upper bound on what a user could select.; Each sampling depth is a separate run with its own seed (seeds 1 to 5 for N = 1, 10, 25, 50 and 100), unlike the single 50-sample runs of the other protocols.; For Chai-1 the smallest depth is 5 samples (5 trunk samples x 1 diffusion sample), so its N = 1 value is the best of 5.; Boltz-1 appears only in this analysis.; Nanobody (VHH)-antigen complexes only; results do not transfer to conventional antibodies or other complex classes.; The set mixes systems inside and outside each tool's training data (AF3 30 of 106 in training, Chai-1 25, Boltz-2 64); the printed values are over all systems, so they are not post-cutoff results, and Boltz-2's are the most exposed.; Preprint, not peer reviewed. Supplementary tables were not read.; No uncertainty is printed for these values.; The dataset paragraph (P62) says post-October 2021 depositions were kept, 'corresponding to the earliest training cutoff among the evaluated tools (Boltz-2)'. The methods (P76) give Chai-1 about 12 January 2021, AF3 about 30 September 2021 and Boltz-2 about 1 June 2023, so Chai-1 is the earliest and Boltz-2 the latest, and the October 2021 date matches AF3. The per-tool train and test counts follow the methods, and no printed value depends on the mis-stated sentence.; Preprint, not peer reviewed.
