  • Different studies of animal and human locomotion have highlighted gait as the main variable factor in energy expenditure in species and individuals of similar mass.

    “Different studies of animal and human locomotion (Alexander 1989(Alexander , 2002(Alexander , 2003;;Bertram 2015;Halsey and White 2012;Tucker 1970) have highlighted the importance of gait as the main variable factor in energy expenditure in species and individuals of similar mass (Elftman 1966; Ivanenko et al. 2007;Selinger et al. 2015;Snaterse et al. 2011;Srinivasan and Ruina 2006).”

  • Walking speed V can easily be estimated from studies on locomotion, and the average speed most often used is that obtained from Tobler's hiking function.

    “walking speed V can easily be estimated from the many studies on locomotion (Alexander 1989(Alexander , 2003;;Bertram 2015;Halsey and White 2012;Tucker 1970) and the average speed most often used is that obtained from Tobler's hiking function (Tobler 1993):”

  • The amount of energy expended in searching for resources is usually less than the contribution gained by consuming the resource, so the daily energy ratio remains positive.

    “The amount of energy expended in the search for these resources is usually less than the contribution gained by consuming the resource (Alexander 1989;Emken et al. 2007) so that the daily energy ratio remains positive”

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.
