Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?
The source backs part of the claim, not all of it — or backs it for a different population, condition or comparison.
In the citing paper
“Niyogi, Smale, and Weinberger in [52] provide sufficient hypotheses which guarantee that this is possible for Riemannian manifolds.”

Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredThe cited source says what the claim attributes to it.
In the citing paper
“Niyogi, Smale and Weinberger (2008) give conditions which show that with high confidence, a construction based on ϵ balls around a finite sample from a submanifold of Euclidean space computes homology of the submanifold accurately.”

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.
