Subclaims¶
Reading the evidence codes
q is the design tier, i the impact, n the sample, and the kind with its r
the rigour judged within that kind: what each code means.
This claim: no standardized effect is recorded in observations/ for it yet, so no benchmark reading is possible.
q2 i? In a paired student bootstrap, the MLP showed a PR-AUC difference of 0.082 over gradient boosting (95% interval [0.009, 0.132]). → Shihao Wang 2026
