Table 4.

Comparison of the sample of AGN candidates selected via our RF5 classifier (1) and the samples of AGN candidates obtained via other selection techniques: the variability-based method from D19 (2); the X/O diagram for the VST-COSMOS sources in the X-ray sample (3); the diagram introduced in Donley et al. (2012) based on the use of MIR colors (4); and the color-magnitude cut used to obtain the catalog presented in Assef et al. (2018) (5).

RF5 D19 X Donley et al. (2012) Assef et al. (2018)
(1) (2) (3) (4) (5)
AGN candidates 302 (77+225) 271 607 226 64
Matched in this work 240 280 151 44
(RF5 sample plus LS) (56+184) (55+225) (16+135) (4+40)

Notes. The first line in the table reports the number of AGN candidates from each selection. The second line reports the number of AGN candidates with a match in the sample of AGN candidates in this work; specifically, in the third line we split this number into the number of matched sources in the sample of RF5 AGN candidates and the number of matched sources in the LS.
