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.
Threshold rates can vary despite balanced mean scores
Example
Let group 1 have two feature types , each of proportion , with outcome probabilities and . Let group 2 have three feature types with proportions and outcome probabilities , , and . Each feature type is assigned deterministically to its own bin, whose score equals that type's outcome probability; this is one common feature-based assignment for both groups, with . Both groups have base rate , and the assignment is calibrated in each group with positive- and negative-outcome mean scores and , respectively. At threshold , the group 1 true-positive and false-positive rates are and , while the group 2 rates are and . At threshold , group 1's two rates are and group 2's are . Thus the threshold rates change with the threshold even though both class-conditioned mean-score criteria hold.

Verification
In both groups the weighted score mean is . For group 1, . For group 2, . Each bin contains one feature type and its score equals that type's , so its positive mass is its score times its assigned mass; hence calibration holds. The common positive mass/base rate is .
By calibration, and . Dividing by the positive and negative masses gives and for both groups, so both balances hold. By [F3], the two groups' TPR areas agree and their FPR areas agree.
At , group 1 has positive mass and negative mass at scores at least , so its rates are and . Group 2 has positive mass and negative mass at scores at least , so its rates are and .
At , group 1 has no score at least , so both rates are zero. Group 2's only qualifying score is , contributing positive mass and negative mass ; dividing each by gives rates and . These computations show threshold dependence despite the mean balances.
