Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?
The cited source says what the claim attributes to it.
In the citing paper
“The ability to generalise is closely related to compression [14,15], with more compressed representations yielding better accuracy [13] for the same reason that there is only one straight line interpolating any two points, but infinitely many polynomials of higher degree.”
From Compression, The Fermi Paradox and Artificial Super-Intelligence (2022) · cites this paper as [15]

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.
