Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?
The cited source says what the claim attributes to it.
In the citing paper
“NLI measures have been used to measure faithfulness in summarization, where Maynez et al. (2020) use a textual entailment classifier trained on MNLI (Williams et al., 2018) to determine if a summary contradicts a context or not.”

The cited source says what the claim attributes to it.
In the citing paper
“InferSent (Conneau et al., 2017) uses labeled data of the Stanford Natural Language Inference dataset (Bowman et al., 2015) and the MultiGenre NLI dataset (Williams et al., 2018) to train a siamese BiLSTM network with max-pooling over the output.”
From Sentence-BERT: Sentence Embeddings using Siamese BERT-Networks (2019) · cites this paper as Williams et al., 2018
The cited source says what the claim attributes to it.
In the citing paper
“Most prior entailment datasets have been human-authored (Bowman et al., 2015;Williams et al., 2018), which is known to introduce artifacts (Gururangan et al., 2018), or collected in the wild (Kamoi et al., 2023), which is challenging to scale.”
From MiniCheck: Efficient Fact-Checking of LLMs on Grounding Documents (2024) · cites this paper as Williams et al., 2018
The cited source says what the claim attributes to it.
In the citing paper
“This released mixture uses SNLI, MNLI, FEVER, SciTail, PAWS, and VitaminC (Bowman et al., 2015;Williams et al., 2018;Thorne et al., 2018;Khot et al., 2018;Zhang et al., 2019;Schuster et al., 2021), rather than the original TRUE paper's ANLI recipe.”

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.
