Figure 3From: Natural computation meta-heuristics for the in silico optimization of microbial strainsBoxplots with the results obtained by the SA and SEA. The eight graphs (one for each case study and algorithm SA or SEA) show a set of boxplots (one for each value of the k, the number of knockouts, and one for the variable size variant) with the following statistics: best value (maximum), quartiles, median and minimum value; the mean value is also shown as a blue dot (or a red dot in the case of the variable size). All values are calculated over the 30 runs for each scenario.Back to article page
