Data Preprocessing Multivariate Analysis
Metrics comparative analysis
The utilization and statistical methods used for these metrics can vary significantly, leading to fails describing their capabilities [2]. In some cases, different studies may even reach contradicting conclusions regarding the effectiveness of certain metrics.
