The crossed (xx) cells show that the results could not be generated for the specific classifier because of the limitation of the framework or the data set. Hence, the evaluation of these classifiers’ results has been carried out manually to check if any better results could be gathered for comparison. The results in bold indicate the best results for different datasets.
