Recomputing p-values needs the paper’s full text.

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?

  • Knowing only that S is somewhere before H would generate too many false positive coding or binding errors, such as detecting 'sh' in 'sahara'.

    “Knowing that S is somewhere before H (as in an open-bigram coding scheme) would generate too many false positive coding errors or binding errors (von der Malsburg, 1999), such as identifying the presence of the complex grapheme “sh” in the word “sahara.””

    From A Dual-Route Approach to Orthographic Processing (2011) · cites this paper as von der Malsburg, 1999

  • Bayesian belief propagation and particle filtering are the most successful computer vision algorithms to date.

    “Bayesian belief propagation 18 -20 and particle filtering 21,22 are the most successful computer vision algorithms to date.”

    From Hierarchical Bayesian inference in the visual cortex (2003) · cites this paper as [19]

  • Algorithms of this type, with separate sets of particles for bottom-up and top-down messages, constitute one of the most promising techniques for statistical inference in large, multilayered domains.

    “Algorithms of this type, although with separate sets of particles for bottom-up and top-down messages, are under active investigation in the computer vision community 19,20,22 and constitute one of the most promising techniques for statistical inference in such large, multilayered domains.”

    From Hierarchical Bayesian inference in the visual cortex (2003) · cites this paper as [19]

  • The authors suggest that these ideas could be formulated as a hierarchical Bayesian system and that Bayesian belief propagation and particle filtering are relevant to understanding interactive computations in the visual cortex.

    “Here we suggest that these ideas could be formulated in the form of a hierarchical Bayesian system and that ideas from Bayesian belief propagation 19 and particle filtering 21,23,25 are relevant to understanding these interactive computations in the visual cortex.”

  • Disparate sensory inputs are processed in different brain regions, at slightly different times, and yet are bound together into unified conscious content ('binding').

    “Disparate sensory inputs are processed in different brain regions, at slightly different times, and yet are bound together into unified conscious content ('binding' [20]).”

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.
