A '''GDT_TS value of ~90''' means that the prediction is as close to an [[empirical model]] as would be an independently obtained second empirical model. GDT_TS gives an overall average measure of how close each amino acid in the predicted model is to those in the empirical model, taking into account many different superpositions of the two models. It is less sensitive to outlier regions than is the root mean square deviation (RMSD)<ref name="rmsdwikipedia">[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Root-mean-square_deviation_of_atomic_positions Root mean square deviation] at Wikipedia.</ref>. "RMSD uses the actual distances between alpha carbons, where GDT works with the percentage of alpha carbons that are found within certain cutoff distances of each other."<ref name="gdtfoldit">[https://foldit.fandom.com/wiki/GDT GDT in the Foldit Wiki].</ref>
