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.

Rank deficiency gives singular information and nonunique weighted least squares

Example

Use the Bernoulli-logit model with β=(0,0)T, design rows x1T=(1,1) and x2T=(2,2), and responses (y1,y2)=(0,1). The weights are positive, but the design columns are dependent.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: The two-row design and responses in the Example, the Bernoulli-logit family, current β=0, and a(ϕ)=1.

[F1]

General-link score and Fisher information: I=XTdiag⁡(wi)X and U=XT(μ˙i(yi−μi)/(aVi))i.

[F2]

One minimum-norm IRLS step: IRLS minimizes the weighted least-squares objective and applies the Moore-Penrose minimum-norm convention if minimizers are not unique.

[F3]

Each Bernoulli-logit response has the counting-measure mass f(y;η)=exp⁡{yη−log⁡(1+eη)} on {0,1}. It is normalized, has fixed support and finite moments, and its first two η derivatives are locally bounded on this finite support. (Bernoulli random variables and binomial random variables as sums of independent Bernoulli trials, The exponential function is smooth and (exp⁡)′=exp⁡, The natural logarithm has derivative 1/x and equals the integral from 1 to x of 1/t)

Verification

At β=0, both predictors are 0, both means are 1/2, and both logit derivatives are 1/4. Thus w1=w2=1/4 by [F1]. Direct multiplication gives I=XTWX=54(1111), which has rank one; the score is U=(1/2,1/2)T.

The working responses are z1=−2 and z2=2. For γ=(γ1,γ2)T, put s=γ1+γ2; the weighted objective is J(s)=14{(−2−s)2+(2−2s)2}. Differentiation gives J′(s)=(5s−2)/2, so every γ with s=2/5 is a minimizer. These minimizers form a line, while ∥γ∥22=s2/2+(γ1−γ2)2/2 shows the Moore-Penrose convention selects (1/5,1/5). The information inverse is undefined because I is singular.
