In the publication of this article [1], there were two errors.
The error: Authors Ahmed Aljaaf1,3, Abir Hussain1, Thar Baker1, and Dhiya Al-Jumeily1 are affiliated with affiliation 1.
It should instead read: Ahmed Aljaaf2,3, Abir Hussain2, Thar Baker2, and Dhiya Al-Jumeily2 since the authors should instead be affiliated with affiliation 2: Computer science Department, Liverpool John Moores University, Liverpool, UK.
The error: the Acknowledgements section lacks additional acknowledgements.
It should instead read:
