The author wishes to make the following corrections to this paper [1]:
Figure Correction
1. In Section 4.1 (Page. 18), Figure 4 is given by
Figure 4.
Visualization of three-class dataset of ODs using the UMAP algorithm. (n_neighbors = 15, min_dist = 0.1, random_state = 42, metric = ‘euclidean’).
This should be the following:

Text Correction
2. The last sentence of the Abstract, the sentence
“At the same time, the average values of the metric used to assess the quality of classifiers during cross-validation increased by 16.138% and 7.910%, respectively, compared to the average values of this metric in the case when the original dataset was used in the development of classifiers of the same name”
should be
“At the same time, the average values of the metric used to assess the quality of classifiers during cross-validation increased by 16.138% and 4.219%, respectively, compared to the average values of this metric in the case when the original dataset was used in the development of classifiers of the same name”.
3. In the first paragraph of the first bulleted list (Page 3) of the Introduction Section, the sentence
- “Approaches using various class balancing algorithms that implement oversampling technologies (for example, SMOTE algorithm (Synthetic Minority Oversampling Technique) [21–23], ADASYN algorithm (Adaptive Synthetic Sampling Approach) [24], undersampling (for example, Tomek Links algorithm) [23,25]) and their combinations;”

7. In the second paragraph of Section 4.6.1, the penultimate sentence
”In addition, the following information is presented in Figure 5 next to the names of the classifiers developed on the basis of datasets: the number of features that depend on the dimension h of the space into which the original 39-dimensional space is embedded, the dimensions h of the space allowing for building the best classifiers, the final dimension q of the space corresponding to the dataset used for development of classifier, and the best values of classifiers parameters are indicated.”
