# Technical Document Extraction: Line Chart Analysis
## Chart Overview
The image is a line chart comparing the Mean Error Rate (MER) Average across different sample sizes (N) for various statistical methods. The chart includes five data series with distinct line styles and colors.
---
## Axis Labels and Markers
- **X-axis**: Labeled "N" (sample size), with tick marks at 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600, and 700.
- **Y-axis**: Labeled "MER Average", with values ranging from 0.18 to 0.30 in increments of 0.02.
---
## Legend and Data Series
The legend is located in the **top-right corner** of the chart. Colors and markers are as follows:
1. **Blue (●)**: CUSUM
2. **Orange (▼)**: \( m^{(1)}, L=1 \)
3. **Green (◆)**: \( m^{(2)}, L=1 \)
4. **Red (■)**: \( m^{(1)}, L=5 \)
5. **Purple (✦)**: \( m^{(1)}, L=10 \)
All line colors and markers match the legend entries exactly.
