Exoplaneteers Keep Overestimating Sigma Significances

Leave a Comment / arXiv, Model Drift / Preprint Watch

URL https://arxiv.org/pdf/2506.05392.pdf Stage Model Drift Paradigm framing Frequentist and Bayesian statistics in exoplanetary atmospheric studies. Highlights The preprint identifies a drift within the current paradigm of exoplanetary atmospheric characterization. Specifically, it addresses the misapplication of a statistical conversion (Sellke et al. 2001) by exoplaneteers. The authors argue that while the conversion itself is valid, its

The Influenza-like Evolutionary Path of Respiratory RNA Viruses

Leave a Comment / Model Drift, Research Square / Preprint Watch

URL https://www.researchsquare.com/article/rs-6707035/v1.pdf Stage Model Drift Paradigm framing The preprint operates predominantly within the established epidemiological paradigm of infectious disease modeling, exemplified by the SIR (Susceptible-Infected-Recovered) model. However, it introduces modifications that challenge certain assumptions of this paradigm, suggesting a state of Model Drift. Highlights This preprint introduces the SIRS-G model, an extension of the SIRS

Dust Budget Crisis in Little Red Dots

Leave a Comment / arXiv, Model Crisis, Model Drift / Preprint Watch

URL https://arxiv.org/pdf/2505.22600.pdf Stage Model Drift / Model Crisis Paradigm framing The preprint challenges the prevailing paradigm that Little Red Dots (LRDs) are heavily dust-reddened Active Galactic Nuclei (AGNs). The current paradigm, based on their red spectra, suggests high extinction levels (Av ~ 3). Highlights The authors present evidence suggesting a “dust budget crisis,” where the
