Data Verification Status Taxonomy
To maintain rigorous scientific standards, Sci-database differentiates between automated signals and human audit:
Value located and extracted from the full-text PDF by the Kateeb engine.
An independent second model produced a compatible value during automated second-pass review.
A named researcher audited the value against the visual page coordinates.
Performance evaluated against a standardized, published evaluation protocol.
An independent external research group reproduced the extraction and experimental result.
