Compared with the average results of SAHA, the better results obtained by the hybrid algorithm BSTS are highlighted by bold. Less than 1% worse results are italicized, and this also shows that the BSTS algorithm can produce some comparable results. The bold and italicized values can display the advantage of the BSTS algorithm more clearly.
