Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Gasification converts carbonaceous materials into combustible or synthetic gas by reacting air, oxygen, or vapor at over 500°C, preferably over 700°C, yielding gases such as H2, CO, and CH4.

    “Gasification converts carbonaceous materials into combustible or synthetic gas by reacting the air, oxygen, or vapor at a temperature of over 500°C, preferably over 700°C, yielding gases such as H2, CO, and CH4.64,65”
  • Pyrolysis can convert biomass into solid, liquid, or gaseous products by thermal decomposition at around 400°C-1,000°C in the absence of oxygen, producing components such as acids, esters, and alcohols.

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.
