CAFASP (Critical Assessment of Fully Automated Structure Prediction) is a series of competitions designed to evaluate the performance of computational methods for predicting protein structures. It focuses on fully automated approaches, where participants submit their computational predictions of protein structures, which are then compared to experimentally determined structures. CAFASP aims to advance the field by providing a standardized way to assess the effectiveness of different algorithms and techniques in protein structure prediction. It helps researchers identify strengths, weaknesses, and areas for improvement in their methods.
