Recomputing p-values needs the paper’s full text.

Claims the paper makes

We couldn’t retrieve this paper’s full text, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Sybil attackers use forged identities to control or affect other normal nodes in a distributed network, resulting in network robustness losses.

    “Attackers use these forged identities to control or affect other normal nodes in a distributed network, resulting in network robustness losses (Douceur 2002;Singh and (2006) Eclipse attacks on overlay networks: Threats and defenses.In: Proceedings IEEE INFOCOM 2006;).”
  • By forming de facto coalitions that dominate voting rights or resource allocation, exploitative agents skew incentives, stall consensus, and ultimately erode the trust essential for robust, large-scale cooperation.

    “By forming de facto coalitions that dominate voting rights or resource allocation, exploitative agents skew incentives, stall consensus, and ultimately erode the trust essential for robust, large-scale cooperation (Douceur, 2002).”
  • The transaction throughput of PBFT is better than that of PoW.

    “The transaction throughput of PBFT is better compared to that of PoW [127].”
  • Such IIoT nodes commonly route their data through gateways by using non-P2P protocols like MQTT or by making use of a fog or edge computing infrastructure.

    “Due to this reason, such a kind of IIoT nodes commonly route their data through gateways by using non-P2P protocols like MQTT [30] or by making use of a fog [31] or edge computing infrastructure [32].”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
