How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Autoencoders are evaluated as a means of constructing compact and informative vector representations for classification tasks involving high-dimensional tabular data.The methodology addresses the limitations of traditional models that rely on manual feature engineering and taskspecific training.Emphasis is placed on building a generalized look-alike model for targeted advertising, using embeddings derived from subscriber-related entities.The approach is assessed on a real-world telecommunications dataset comprising subscriber demographics, devices, tariffs, and network characteristics.Experimental results demonstrate that embeddings produced by
