  1. This table shows the results of three methods we used in the data analysis. Orders of the results are arranged according to the values of degree of variation from the smallest to largest. The first four lines are non-age-related group based on the k-means clustering results and the rest are age-related group. The bold value denotes the largest and smallest values in the non-age-related and age-related groups respectively
