- 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: nabas-plus-2025; source locator: Materials and methods/Datasets and reference databases/CAMI samples (paragraph 3); Materials and methods/Running the classifiers (paragraph 2) | Introduction (paragraph 3); Materials and methods/Statistical comparison and visualization (paragraph 1); 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.
