MAIDEN (Model quality Assessment for Intramembrane Domains using an ENergy criterion) is a statistical potential optimized on native alpha-helica and beta-sheet membrane protein structures. MAIDEN computes pseudo-energies for transmembrane domains of native or predicted protein structures, in order to evaluate their quality.
Reference:
The set of structures used for the calculation of MAIDEN contains 66 representative structures (41 alpha and 25 beta) from the PDBTM database (Tusnady, et al., 2005) determined by crystallography at <2.5 A resolution and with an R-factor <0.3 (see below):

To benchmark MAIDEN and others methods, we have generated 700 predicted structures (alpha and beta) by homology modelling and used the 15340 membrane protein models of EVfold_membrane (Hopf et al., 2012).
