RESEARCH

Field notes with evidence you can inspect

A useful result states its method, its scope and what it does not establish. Our first field note starts with a small arithmetic question.

Research standard

We publish a method and the relevant test cases with each result. Fixture tests are labeled as fixture tests. We do not convert a small arithmetic demonstration into claims about fraud rates, vendor performance or real-world document detection.

New research must add a distinct measurement or reproducible result before publication. A topic name alone is not a research finding.
