The predictive performance of the proposed models is compared using learning curves, showing that all models converge to produce a similar classification error. The predictive ranking of the models is compared using Kendall's tau rank correlation coefficient and shows a difference despite similar classification error. The variation in predictions across subjects and the difference in ranking is investigated visually in the {AV} space and quantified using Kendall's tau." }
