  1. All the models were tested with ten different train-and-test splits. Only the Top-1 accuracy is listed. The accuracies in bold are the results of the proposed method. The superscript “*” denotes a significant difference (P < 0.05) between the proposed method and the other models using one-way ANOVA.
