Table 6 Performance evaluation of the proposed MCAM model in three randomized experiments on validation and testing sets. The best-achieved results for all sub-datasets are in bold, whereas the second-best results are underlined. “C” is the class that has “N” and “A,” which represent normal and abnormal labels, whereas GHS represents the complete GasHisSDB dataset. [Values in %].
