  1. Note: Each entry in row i and column j represents the percentage change in the objective function of algorithm j with respect to algorithm i, computed as \((F_i - F_j)/F_i \times 100\). The diagonal is zero. Upper-triangular entries (to the right of the diagonal) are positive when the column algorithm achieves a lower objective value (improvement) than the row algorithm; lower-triangular entries are the corresponding negatives.
