The results for Ie et al were obtained from the supplementary website for the work [19], and represent the results obtained using the simple scaling model in their implementation. The results labeled "Scaling Model" correspond to the performance achieved by our two-level classifiers using the simple scaling model, whereas the results labeled "Best Model" correspond to the best performance achieved among the simple scaling, scaling & shift, and Cramer-Singer models. Both of these results were obtained from Table 2. All results were obtained by optimizing the balanced loss function. ZE and BE denote the zero-one error and balanced error percent rates respectively.
