The generalized Foldy-Wouthuysen (GFW) transformation was proposed as a generic form that unifies four types of transformations in relativistic two-component methods: unnormalized GFW(UN), and normalized form 1, form 2, and form 3 (GFW(N1), GFW(N2), and GFW(N3)). The GFW transformation covers a wide range of transformations beyond the simple unitary transformation of the Dirac Hamiltonian, allowing for the systematic classification of all existing two-component methods. New two-component methods were also systematically derived based on the GFW transformation. These various two-component methods were applied to hydrogen-like and helium-like ions. Numerical errors in energy were evaluated and classified into four types: the one-electron Hamiltonian approximation, the two-electron operator approximation, the newly defined "picture difference error (PDE)," and the error in determining the transformation, and errors in multi-electron systems were discussed based on this classification
