The upper section corresponds to the performance of the IHC-decision tree algorithms. Lower section corresponds to equivalent combinations of antibodies, but with LDA classification, this includes the rest of combinations not reported by IHC-decision tree algorithms. Choi, VY3, and VY4 algorithms reached the most considerable accuracy, representing the most balanced options of sensibility and specificity, with similar performance metrics

Numeric tags 1 = CD10, 2 = BCL6, 3 = FOXP1, 4 = GCTE1, and 5 = MUM1

Acc: accuracy; Sens: sensitivity; Spec: specificity; PPV: positive predictive value; NPV: negative predictive values; LR+: likelihood ratio for positive test results; LR−: likelihood ratio for negative test result
