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?

  • Diurnal mass gains of 5.3% in great tits have been shown to have no significant effect on escape flight performance.

    “Diurnal mass gains of 5.3% in great tits have also been shown to have no significant effect on escape flight performance (Macleod, 2006).”

  • Although added mass must affect induced power requirements, the size of that effect has little meaningful functional relevance given the high variability in individual take-off performance.

    “Together, these findings suggest that although added mass must affect the induced power requirements, the magnitude of the effect has little meaningful functional relevance (given the high variability in individual take-off performance per se; Table 2, Fig. 1A) (Macleod, 2006).”

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.
