Table 4. Z-score values obtained for data classified from training data with different noise proportions with respect to the original results.
![Figure 3. Effect of reducing training data on the mapping accuracy. RF and SVM show a similar behaviour with relation to the reduction of training data. However, the ANN and CT underwent a more noticeable decrease of mapping accuracy, especially for high reduction values. This may mean a higher need for training data of these algorithms.](/cms/asset/ff80d776-8cbd-49d0-bc30-b65a1b7cf578/tjde_a_748848_f0003_b.jpg)
