  • The paper used the Friedman test to reject the null hypothesis when comparing classifiers over multiple datasets.

    “As for comparing the classifiers over multiple datasets, we followed the recommendations in Demˇ sar (2006) and used the Friedman test (Friedman, 1940) to reject the null hypothesis.”

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.
