Entries show the p-value indicating the significance of a difference in performence between two alignment methods as measured using a Friedman rank test. Values were calculated using Q (SP) scores on all alignments. (+) Method on the left had lower average rank (better performance); (−) Method on the left had higher average rank (worse performance); parentheses denote (nonsignificant) p-values >0.05.
