• AUC results obtained by the LCMine miner [1] jointly with the CAEP classifier [2], using the pattern selection algorithms. ->

• CD diagrams with a statistical comparison of the classification results. ->
• Statistical results using Friedman's test (as a non-parametric test) and Shaffer static procedure (as a post-hoc procedure) [3]. The post hoc comparisons contain α = 0.05, α = 0.10, and adjusted p-values. ->
