Table 3. Comparison of predictions between DDX generators.

Here we compare the most likely diagnosis of four well-known and freely available (at least for testing purposes) DDX generators with that provided by Rare Disease Discovery. 10 patients with different symptoms and/or diseases were randomly selected from the RAMEDIS dataset. All symptoms were used.
