The statistical analysis was separated into ranked and non-ranked categories. For the non-ranked category, all submissions (ranked and non-ranked) were considered, while in ranked category (for formal competition) only ranked submissions were considered. For datasets with optional systems, analysis was done with and without those guests, where the latter was denoted as "no optional" in the respective directories. All data, plots, and tables for ranked and non-ranked analysis subsets are available in the SAMPL8 GitHub repository ().
