How a score is worked out › ledger-default@0.3.0
ledger-default@0.3.0
The everyday model. It scores every claim type that can be scored at all, including causal and interpretive claims, and marks those two as model-dependent so a reader knows another model may disagree.
This is the model this node answers with when a link names none.
Version 0.3.0. A claim may name the edition of a source it is about. A reading of a different version of that source no longer counts against it, which matters for any claim about what a living web page said on a particular day.

A released model never changes. Those two hashes are recorded in every score it produced, so any
number it has ever given can be reproduced exactly, by this node or by anyone else.

What it scores, and what it declines to
Scored: observational, quantitative, historical, textual, comparative, definitional, attributed belief, causal, and interpretive.
Every other claim type gets not applicable from this model and no probability at all —
a refusal to score, not a score of nought.
It marks causal and interpretive as
model-dependent, which says on the page that another model may reasonably disagree.
Every number it declares
What each of these means, and why it is there, is on
how a score is worked out.
