A new story in @nature.com investigates an AI tool developed by #AusHSI Prof @aidybarnett.bsky.social and colleagues to scan and flag cancer research publications that are likely to be fake, a similar process to filtering spam e-mails.
An AI tool that scans manuscript titles and abstracts has flagged more than 250,000 cancer studies that bear textual similarities to articles that are known to have been produced by paper mills

Low quality papers are flooding the cancer literature — can this AI tool help to catch them?

A new #Nature story investigates a preprint by #AusHSI Prof @aidybarnett.bsky.social, which has found that peer reviewers are more likely to approve articles that cite their own work. When the reasons for citing are hard to justify, this can make the peer-review process transactional. #peerreview
