Filtering of genomic repeats by different methods. Q1 is the fraction of masked words. Q2 is the fraction of words masked exclusively by the method. In case of RM and WM, a word was considered masked if all its bases were masked. The timing in each test was obtained using a single instance running on Intel Xeon 2.33 GHz/8 GB Linux box.
