Diagram for the model creation and comparison of four receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. (A) Diagram describing the origin for the classifying features. (B) ROC curve for a model that relies on relative abundances and one sample per subject (as used in previous publications). (C–E) ROC curve for our new model at 1, 2 and 8 samples per subject. The grey lines represent the performance at each of the 100 iterations. The dotted black diagonal line represents the performance of a classifier that guesses the labels at random.
