^#Criterion used to exclude some of the test compression members given in reference. ^@—Some of the test compression members of this reference are considered in test database, finally they were excluded based on very high ME or no match in calculated and experimental results. ^$—The data are taken from Mulligan [17] as the original reference is not available. The data are taken from Chou et al. [29] as the original reference is not available.
