How statement and proof provenance work
The first chip identifies the source of the statement or construction; the second identifies the source of its local proof or verification.
- Literature-sourced: the exact statement appears in a cited source; only wording and notation differ.
- AI-adapted: a semantically identical restatement of literature-sourced material, modulo indexing, notation, and boundary cases adopted by the library.
- AI-generated: a genuinely novel statement formulated by AI, with no source for the claim itself.
These labels describe origin, not correctness: citations and verification chips remain separate evidence.
Simultaneous coverage for dependent interval sets
Example
Take the location experiment with and sample space : under parameter , equals with probability for each . For both coordinates set and report the interval , . Each interval has marginal coverage . The two coverage events are identical, so their simultaneous coverage is also . With and , Bonferroni guarantees at least ; the bound is conservative here because of perfect dependence.
Facts & Assumptions
Given: The location experiment and two confidence-set procedures in the Example, together with the confidence-set definition and simultaneous-coverage theorem below.
Statistical experiments: an experiment is a measurable sample space, parameter set, and family of probability measures on that sample space.
Confidence sets and coverage: a confidence-set procedure has a measurable membership section for each candidate parameter, and its coverage is the probability that it contains the true parameter.
Bonferroni simultaneous coverage: if marginal confidence sets have coverage at least and , their joint coverage is at least without an independence assumption.
The sample space is . For each , places mass at each of the ten distinct points , ; and .
Verification
Given: The family of ten-point laws, targets, and interval procedures in the Example.
For each candidate , the membership section of either interval procedure is , a Borel set, so [F2] applies. Under , the true value is included exactly for ; hence each marginal coverage is .
The two interval procedures are equal for every observation, so their membership events coincide and joint coverage is . Since , [F3] gives the general lower bound , which this example satisfies. The equality of the two events shows that independence is not assumed.

Dependency tree · two levels
10 results within two dependency steps of this one, each drawn at its shortest distance from it. An arrow runs from a result to what uses it, so the chart reads left to right and ends at this result, which carries a heavier outline. Every node is a link to that result.
