  1. Note: Columns follow the same order as the last five rows (ARO, AVOA, TSO, ZOA, NOA). Each entry in row i and column j is computed as \((F_i - F_j)/F_i \times 100\). The diagonal is 0.00. 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.
