  1. VEL is the normalized velocity, AMP is the normalized peak to peak amplitude, DUR is the normalized duration and AUC is the normalized area under the curve. Under best classification the top number is the total number of correctly classified cases. The two numbers in parentheses below this are the specificity and sensitivity.
