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 check wasn’t confident either way, so it gives no verdict — never disputed.
In the citing paper
“researchers increasingly report feeling overwhelmed by the amount of literature they must sift through as part of their regular workflow ( 49 )”
From scite: a smart citation index that displays the context of citations and classifies their intent using deep learning (2021) · cites this paper as [49]
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredIn the citing paper
“These issues are exacerbated by the exponential growth of scientific output (Landhuis, 2016).”
From FLAWS: A Benchmark for Error Identification and Localization in Scientific Papers (2025) · cites this paper as Landhuis, 2016
In the citing paper
“Given the rapid growth experienced by AI research communities in particular (Künzli et al., 2022), and by science as a whole (Landhuis, 2016), existing processes do not scale well.”

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.
