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

  • In process control, operators have a distinct preference for surface control rather than deep control of the system.

    “While this surface/deep control distinction is best thought of as a continuum, studies of process control environments have often indicated that operators have a distinct preference for surface control rather than deep control of the system (e.g., [81, 92]).”

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.
