Classification accuracy on the simulated data sets. (a) Indication of which method yielded the highest classification accuracy (CA) for each data set (marked by the red box). (b) Box-plots (median and IQR with whiskers delimited by the maximum and minimum nonoutliers values) of classification accuracy provided by all the methods on all the data sets (). The statistically significant differences are indicated as the numbers above each box-plot, the box-plot being marked with “1” referring to the method with highest CA compared to all the others and the box-plot marked with “8” referred to the method with the lowest CA compared to all the others (Friedman’s test followed by Wilcoxon’s matched pair test, ).
