How to verify a knowledge graph edge against its cited source span: a 2026 acceptance test with seven adversarial cases, four verdicts, support-rate arithmetic with Wilson intervals, and the literature behind each step.

Semantic Entropy Hallucination Detection: An Evidence Audit
Evidence audit of semantic entropy hallucination detection in 2026: what Nature, EACL and 2026 preprint results measure, why single-cluster answers escape, and a paired source-support audit design.

AI Tool Output Verification: Did It Establish a Fact?
A 2026 guide to AI tool output verification: distinguish successful calls from supported facts, classify incomplete observations, and evaluate claims with independent fixtures and provenance.

JSON Evidence Binding Test: Right Value, Right Record?
A 2026 protocol for a JSON evidence binding test: frozen manifest, per-record ledger, RFC 6901 pointer fixtures, matched order and path conditions, and when deterministic assembly beats LLM nesting.

Scientific Claim Verification With Figures: A Visual Audit
How to test scientific claim verification with figures and tables: SciFact, SciVer and SciClaimEval compared, a paired synthetic fixture, Wilson intervals and a 2026 evidence ledger.

Agent Memory Admission Control: Can It Trust Its Own Guess?
A 2026 admission test for agent memory: matched fixtures, false-admission and valid-admission rates, and HaluMem's paper-reported false memory resistance (44.94% to 80.78% on Medium).
