Compared to a straightforward service like ancestry, which directly compares your genes to sample populations, what process do Gedmatch calculators use to determine Oracle results? Do they take into account unique genotypes for each population? Do they just look at admix combinations based on whatever sample populations each calculator has (which is why no one oracle result is exactly the same)?

There are a lot of calculator each of them have different components and expectedly different population references. Oracles are determining according to the reference points of calculator based on your genotype.
