From existence checking to semantic auditing: citation verifiability in the age of AI
1T. G. Masaryk Water Research Institute, Podbabská, Prague, Czechia.
Abstract:
This paper reflects on the current crisis of academic integrity caused by the phenomenon of fabricated and semantically incorrect citations. In the era of 'fast science' and permanent citation inflation, human reviewers face extreme cognitive overload and time pressure, making it impossible to consistently verify literature sources. As a key solution, this paper proposes the deployment of autonomous AI agents (Agentic AI) designed for the deep semantic auditing of manuscripts. This technological shift is complemented by an innovative proposal to introduce mandatory authorial 'citation reports' that operationalize the concepts of citation classification. The resulting synergy between human expertise and machine precision relieves reviewers of their mechanical burden and can help strengthen the rigor, transparency, and credibility of peer review.

Types of Errors: Detection and Minimization
Absolute error in a measurement is the numerical difference from the true or central value. Relative error is the ratio between absolute error and the true or central value, expressed as a percentage.
Errors can be classified by source, magnitude, and sign. There are three types of errors: systematic, random, and gross.
Systematic or...
