Comment on AI beats human sleuth at finding problematic images in research papers

In Image classification. Neural-network-based ML methods can have greater accuracy than alternative options in image classification

For classification, sure. But based on the article that’s not what they were doing here. This was just comparing an image to a bunch of other images to see if it was the same.

To see if they are similar. They are not interested to see if the image is the same but to understand if the message is the same, to the level that it is a fraud, not simple citation. They are flagging frauds…
I have no idea how they do it, and I strongly believe it is an overkill given that the credibility of published research is low due to the mafia-like academic system, not because of few frauds.
