How to improve this table?
I'm looking for ideas to improve the layout of the following table.
- Is there a better way to separate ABC Metrics and XYZ Metrics (other than using separate table for each metric)?
- Should I convert Algorithms row into a column?
- Should I convert Dataset row into a column?
I would appreciate any ideas, thanks.
