  1. Chosen grid numbers refer to the number of grids chosen based on the CO/NOx (central 90% confidence interval) for a given industrial type inside CEMS; right grid numbers refer to the subset of the chosen grids that were correctly identified of the given industrial type according to EP; accuracy rate refer to the proportion of accurately identified grids to the total chosen grids; indentified proportion refer to the proportion of accurately identified grids of the given industrial type according to EP.
