A Review of Hierarchical Classification
Abstract
SUMMARY A review is presented of methods of summarizing the relationships within a set of objects by a set of hierarchically-nested classes of similar objects, representable by a rooted tree diagram. Material covered includes algorithms for obtaining tree diagrams, comments on the selection of appropriate methods of analysis and the validation of classifications, distributions of different types of tree, and consensus trees.

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.
