Comparison of our classification scheme against two (semi-) independent reference catalogues: the FIRST radio component catalogue (White et al. 1997), and the Gaia-unWISE AGN candidate catalogue (GUA, Shu et al. 2019).

Notes. The low rate at which our classification logic classifies both radio sources and AGN candidates as secure Galactic or likely Galactic suggests that our classifications are robust.
