Table 1.

Results of statistical significance test of the difference in mean significant ranks. The results reported are those of the two-sample, one-tailed Mann-Whitney-Wilcoxon test of the mean significant ranks based on top-precision. For each entry, the upper triangle of the table reports the test p-values adjusted using the Benjamini, Hochberg, and Yekutieli method. Results significant at 95% confidence level are reported in boldface text. The lower triangular part reports, when significant at 95% confidence level, the comparison of the average significant rank with p=0.05 between the algorithm in the row and the one in the column.
