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?

  • The method in [216] is only applicable to Isolation Forest.

    “Only applicable to Isolation Forest”

    From A Survey on Explainable Anomaly Detection (2024) · cites this paper as [216]

    The Conclusion (p. 14) says the paper’s attention losses are applicable to different network architectures, contrary to the claimed restriction to Isolation Forest. The Introduction (p. 2) identifies the proposed method as a convolutional adversarial variational autoencoder with guided attention, not an Isolation Forest method. (LLM, conf=0.90)

    Checked by a reasoning model — may be wrong.

    Experimental — accuracy not yet measured
  • The method in [216] has high explanation fidelity.

    “High explanation fidelity”

    From A Survey on Explainable Anomaly Detection (2024) · cites this paper as [216]

    The Method (p. 6) describes attention maps used to localize anomalies, and Experimental Results (p. 11) report localization IoU and AuROC. Those results support the maps’ localization performance, but the paper does not evaluate whether they faithfully explain the model’s decisions; high explanation fidelity is therefore not established. (LLM, conf=0.76)

    Experimental — accuracy not yet measured
  • Both CutPaste [31] and CAVGA [42] treat anomaly detection as a classification problem, while GradCAM is used for pixel-level anomaly localization.

    “Both CutPaste [31] and CAVGA [42] treat anomaly detection as a classification problem, while GradCAM is used for pixel-level anomaly localization.”

    From Deep Industrial Image Anomaly Detection: A Survey (2024) · cites this paper as [42]

  • Existing surveys on XAD contain no more than 40 relevant works each.

    “Specifically, each of the above surveys contains no more than 40 relevant works in the field.”

    From A Survey on Explainable Anomaly Detection (2024) · cites this paper as [216]

    The Related Works section (p. 4) compares anomaly-localization methods, but does not count works covered by XAD surveys. Searches for surveys, XAD, and the 40-work limit found no passage in our copy addressing the claim. (LLM, conf=0.76)

    Experimental — accuracy not yet measured

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.
