aThe ANN input features of CP-MLR and GA sets, respectively, correspond to and given in Table 3. The ANN input features common sets are features common to CP-MLR and GA.
b : squared correlation coefficient; RMSEP: root-mean-square error of prediction; RSEP: relative standard error of prediction; MAE: mean absolute error.
