Mark, By 'coverage' I mean the 1 value in the dot product of the comparing eigenvectors sets (between 1 and 1, 2 and 2 and so on eigenvectors) ( that indicate that both eigenvector set are identical as I suppose). In that case I had 2 identical pdp ensembles from which in 1 case I obtained normal filter trajectory and in the second case- with broken geometry. In the picture below you can see the conformations of the protein calculated in that 2 instances ( left conformation is fine and its preserved in all filter trajectory but in the second case as you can see all seven-helixes bulge of the protein was shrunken). I've tried to re-make the cov.analysis ( changing number of structures in the pdb ensemble as well as reference conformation but result was always the same ).
