Procedures for Reacting to a Change in Distribution
Open accessAbstract
A problem of optimal stopping is formulated and simple rules are proposed which are asymptotically optimal in an appropriate sense. The problem is of central importance in quality control and also has applications in reliability theory and other areas.

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.
