Table 3 Comparison of best metrics shown in related work compared to those generated from the proposed deep learning model in this paper. Since these are tile datasets, spatial awareness via pyramid tiles was not used for the proposed model. This variant of the proposed model is referred to as HCNN rather than SA-HCNN.
