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?

  • Any simple structural metric that resolved the ambiguity on the basis of overall frequency bias will make errors in initial interpretation approximately 40% of the time.

    “Thus anysimple structural metric that resolved the ambiguityon the basis of overall frequencybias (e.g., Mitchell, Cuetos, Corley, & Brysbaert, 1995) will make errors in the initial interpretation of this ambiguityapproximately40% of the time.”

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.
