  1. §“Training set size > N” represents a landmark set composed of all training sets with a landmark quantity greater than N in the training set
  2. U is short for “geolocation threshold”
  3. QCG is short for “quantity of the entities that can be geolocated”
  4. QCNG is short for “quantity of the entities that cannot be geolocated”
  5. MGE is short for “median geolocation error of the entities that can be geolocated”
