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?

  • The hesitant fuzzy AHP allows the superiority relationship between criteria to be determined more flexibly than traditional AHP.

    “For instance, while the traditional AHP requires selecting one of the exact numbers from the 1-9 scale to express the superiority relationship between criteria x and y, the hesitant fuzzy AHP allows this relationship to be determined more flexibly [22], [50].”
  • The hesitant fuzzy AHP technique has proven to be as valid as the traditional AHP technique.

    “This technique, which belongs to the group of methods extended with fuzzy numbers, has been frequently used in the literature and has proven to be as valid as the traditional AHP technique [17], [22], [23], [24], [48].”
  • Hesitant fuzzy numbers provide an effective solution in cases where experts are unable to determine the superiority of one option over another.

    “A key distinguishing feature of hesitant fuzzy numbers compared to other scales based on fuzzy numbers is that they provide an effective solution in cases where experts are unable to determine the superiority of one option over another [22], [49].”
  • The hesitant fuzzy AHP approach offers greater flexibility by accommodating expert hesitation in comparative evaluations and utilizing linguistic expressions instead of rigid numerical scales.

    “This approach offers greater flexibility by accommodating expert hesitation in comparative evaluations and utilizing linguistic expressions instead of rigid numerical scales [17], [22], [23], [24].”

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.
