Table 3.

Numbers of wins–ties–losses (superior–equal–inferior AUC) between the eight methods (pairwise) on the 34 UCI datasets. For three numbers shown in each entry of the table, the first is the number of wins of corresponding method shown on the left column compared with the corresponding method shown on the top; middle is the number of ties between them and the third is the number of losses. (M1:SVM; M2:SVMROC; M3:RankBoost; M4:OPAUC; M5:SVMlin; M6:SSRankBoost; M7:SSLROC1; M8:SSLROC2).
