How can I make this table look prettier and more elegant than this and do you think it's better to make it fit into one or two columns? I am also opened to making it span over two columns if you think this is better.

Regarding the table being too wide for the column, you could play around with decreasing the font size and thetabcolsep. However, I doubt, that the table will fit into a single column without applying some more changes. More methods can be found here: My table doesn't fit; what are my options?

what is nice looking table is personal opinion. apparently (as follows from accepted answers on your previous question) you don't like professional looking tables.
Anyway, as i told you in comment, your table is to wide that can be fit into one column as it is. so, according to my taste i suggest you to write it over two columns as follows:

endtable*

or consider the second possibilities: interchange rows and columns in your table:

@user3406764 This is how professional, really nice tables look like. Classical, clean layout, no distracting clutter.

@Sveinung, thank you for nice words!
– Zarko
May 9 at 19:07
In my opinion, the first table (over two columns) is the best, It blends very well to the page layout, and placing at the bottom of the page is a good choice. you may consider removing the side bearing by placing @ in the beginning and end of the preamble.
– Sveinung
May 9 at 19:17
@Sveinung, you are right. in my first attempt i consider this, but letter i remove them, now don't know why. i will wait for while to op response and than correct table code as you suggest.

Here there is my simple proposal. With %<----adding you can see my changhes. The most important is the use the resizebox to decrease the size of the table.

Personally, I would not recommend usingresizeboxin order to resize tables as this method will lead to inconsistent font sizes throughtout the document.
– leandriis
May 9 at 15:06
@leandriis I agree with you. However, it depends on the number of tables that are inserted in the document. If there are two or three, it could be a solution. Surely mine is just a proposal, and it certainly won't be the best :-)

@Sebastiano, do you see wiert.me/2014/04/03/… ? on web can find more similar presentation about table settings. in answers of Mico, Bernard (to name only a few) you can see many nice designed tables. they are worth to red. (i nullify dovn-wote).

Don't attempt to use resizebox for tables, this a really bad advice to give to users because it will give very ugly results.
If you want to keep this layout (the clean layout from Zarko is much better) manually choose a smaller font size and reduce the inter column space:

what is nice looking table is personal opinion. apparently (as follows from accepted answers on your previous question) you don't like professional looking tables.
Anyway, as i told you in comment, your table is to wide that can be fit into one column as it is. so, according to my taste i suggest you to write it over two columns as follows:
documentclass[10pt,conference]IEEEtran
IEEEoverridecommandlockouts
usepackagetextcomp
usepackagebooktabs, makecell, multirow, tabularx
renewcommandtheadfontsmallbfseries
renewcommandtheadgape
usepackagestfloats

endtabular
endtable*

or consider the second possibilities: interchange rows and columns in your table:

In my opinion, the first table (over two columns) is the best, It blends very well to the page layout, and placing at the bottom of the page is a good choice. you may consider removing the side bearing by placing @ in the beginning and end of the preamble.

@Sveinung, you are right. in my first attempt i consider this, but letter i remove them, now don't know why. i will wait for while to op response and than correct table code as you suggest.

Personally, I would not recommend usingresizeboxin order to resize tables as this method will lead to inconsistent font sizes throughtout the document.
– leandriis
May 9 at 15:06
@leandriis I agree with you. However, it depends on the number of tables that are inserted in the document. If there are two or three, it could be a solution. Surely mine is just a proposal, and it certainly won't be the best :-)

@Sebastiano, do you see wiert.me/2014/04/03/… ? on web can find more similar presentation about table settings. in answers of Mico, Bernard (to name only a few) you can see many nice designed tables. they are worth to red. (i nullify dovn-wote).

Personally, I would not recommend usingresizeboxin order to resize tables as this method will lead to inconsistent font sizes throughtout the document.

@leandriis I agree with you. However, it depends on the number of tables that are inserted in the document. If there are two or three, it could be a solution. Surely mine is just a proposal, and it certainly won't be the best :-)

@Sebastiano, do you see wiert.me/2014/04/03/… ? on web can find more similar presentation about table settings. in answers of Mico, Bernard (to name only a few) you can see many nice designed tables. they are worth to red. (i nullify dovn-wote).

Don't attempt to use resizebox for tables, this a really bad advice to give to users because it will give very ugly results.
If you want to keep this layout (the clean layout from Zarko is much better) manually choose a smaller font size and reduce the inter column space:

Please make your code compilable by adding the documentclass and the relevant packages. Regarding "prettier", you might want to follow the suggestions by Mico (usage of less lines, usage of
booktabs) on your previous question.– leandriis

Common for beautiful(subjective) tables is that they have very few lines - certainly not vertical lines like that. tex.stackexchange.com/questions/112343/beautiful-table-samples

Regarding the table being too wide for the column, you could play around with decreasing the font size and the
tabcolsep. However, I doubt, that the table will fit into a single column without applying some more changes. More methods can be found here: My table doesn't fit; what are my options?– leandriis

yur table is far to wide to be fit in present form in one column. you have tow options: (i) set it over two columns (with ˙table*` float) or rewrite table on the way, that you interchange columns and rows.
