Claims the paper makes

We couldn’t retrieve this paper’s full text, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

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?

  • Attack and vulnerability trees, which belong to PRA methods, usually concentrate on a specific type of attack and at best attempt to cover all known threats and vulnerabilities in an infrastructure, ignoring unknown threats.

    “Attack and vul-nerability trees, which belong to PRA methods, usually concentrate on a specific type of attack and at best attempt to cover “all known threats and vulnerabilities in an infrastruc-ture” (Patel et al., 2008, p. 484), ignoring unknown threats.”

  • Tree-based methods are similar in their logic and aim to define the probability of the top event or its reliability.

    “Tree-based methods are similar in their logic and aim to define the probability of the top event or its reliability (Patel et al., 2008).”

  • Among probabilistic tree-based methods for SCADA systems, inductive and deductive methods are distinguished.

    “In Cheminod et al. (2013), Patel et al. (2008), Ralston et al. (2007), Taylor et al. (2002), among proba-bilistic tree-based methods for SCADA systems inductive and deductive methods are distinguished.”

  • Most often, risk assessment methods in general are classified into qualitative and quantitative, with semi-quantitative methods being distinguished in some publications.

    “Most often, risk assessment methods in general are classi-fied into qualitative and quantitative (Campbell and Stamp, 2004; Karabacak and Sogukpinar, 2005; Patel et al., 2008), with semi-quantitative methods being distinguished in some pub-lications (Campbell and Stamp, 2004; Markovic-Petrovic and Stojanovic, 2014).”

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.
