arXiv:2605.27394v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Determining whether published scientific findings can successfully be replicated is a long-standing challenge in the empirical sciences. Existing approaches for replicability assessment typically rely either on human judgment, i.e., creative assembly of human experts, or on machine learning models trained on paper content metadata. While both approaches have demonstrated value, each also has important limitations. Human forecasts can be influenced by cognitive biases and narrow exposure to the research literature, while automated assessments of
The increasing volume and complexity of scientific research, combined with advancements in AI capabilities, is driving the need for more efficient and robust replicability assessments.
Ensuring the replicability of scientific findings is crucial for the integrity of research, the efficient allocation of resources, and the reliability of evidence-based decision-making in various fields.
The proposed human-AI collaboration model offers a more sophisticated and less-biased method for evaluating scientific replicability, potentially accelerating research validation and improving scholarly trust.
