The last column is the mean precision-ranking across all the networks. Different methods are presented in increasing order of mean precision-ranking. The local methods are in standard character while the global methods are in italic. The name of the best local method and the name of the best global method in the first column are boldface. Corresponding, the mean precision-ranking value of the best local method and the mean precision-ranking value of the best global method in the last column also are boldface. Number in bracket closed to an method denotes the number of tuning parameters. The best result achieved by global methods and the best result achieved by local methods on each network are boldface. Methods with an asterisk like * denote methods based on inference and methods without an asterisk denote methods based on a paradigm (in the sense that are model-based).
