Abstract

Deceived by the noble appearance of the Thane of Crawdor, and ironically about to be deceived again by the appearance of Macbeth, Shakespeare's King Duncan laments. ‘There is no art/To find the mind's construction in the face’1 In fact, just such an art did exist, an art codified by long tradition of at least two thousand years standing as Shakespeare wrote (and which remained cyclically current into the nineteenth century). Duncan was apparently just an unskilled practitioner.

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.
