Cognitive Neuroscience: Acting on Numbers
Open accessAbstract
The parietal cortex is a central part of the brain's system for representing numbers and magnitudes. Activity in the parietal cortex might reflect number representation or actions made in response to the numbers.

62% of the first sentences in WIKIBIO have additional information not stated in the corresponding infobox.
“Indeed, Dhingra et al. [45] points out that 62% of the first sentences in WIKIBIO have additional information not stated in the corresponding infobox.”

Traditional metrics have poor correlation with human judgment in terms of the hallucination problem.
“A similar phenomenon has been shown in other NLG tasks, where it has been discovered that traditional metrics have a poor correlation with human judgment in terms of the hallucination problem [45, 54, 101, 125].”

The indiscriminate treatment of numbers in hallucination metrics contradicts findings in cognitive neuroscience that numbers are represented differently from lexical words in a different part of the brain.
“This indiscriminate treatment contradicts findings in cognitive neuroscience, where numbers are known to be represented differently from lexical words in a different part of the brain [86].”

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.
