Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • In hydrocarbon solvents, anionic polymerization proceeds very slowly, so the sequence in which reagents are added to the solvent is not necessarily critical.

    “The kinetics of polymerization in hydrocarbon media are very slow, and this means that the order of incorporation of reagents into the solvent is not necessarily crucial.”

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.
