Critical Assessment of Function Annotation (CAFA) is an evaluation initiative designed to assess the accuracy and effectiveness of computational methods for predicting the function of proteins. Established in 2010, CAFA serves as a benchmark for evaluating how well computational models can predict biological functions based on sequence or structural data. The main aspects of CAFA include: 1. **Data Input**: The initiative uses a large set of proteins with well-characterized functions.
