Abstract

A machine learning approach for evaluating the replicability of research receives a scholarly paper or publication about a research effort, and applies learning models and natural language processing (NLP) to identify replicability of the asserted results. Rule based and machine learning approaches employ models based on preexisting research papers having defined replicability, and compares language features, research parameters and factual assertions extracted from a research paper for evaluation. A pipeline of evaluations and feature extraction analyzes the content of the research paper and renders a prediction value that the described research can be repeated with similar results.
