Selected bibliography checks
Editorial research, 30 October 2026. These notes supplement the internal citation notes. They preserve the thesis bibliography and do not claim that all 48 entries have been externally validated.
| Original entry | Publisher evidence | Editorial proposal |
|---|---|---|
| [23] names “Kolodner, Jane” for the 1993 book Case-Based Reasoning. | The publisher’s catalogue identifies Janet Kolodner, 1993, Morgan Kaufmann, ISBN 9781558602373. Publisher catalogue | Use Janet when creating a new citation to this book. The thesis’s printed given name remains unchanged. This check does not independently verify the cited chapter’s page span. |
| [26] gives 1991 and “Spring-Verlag” for Case-Based Reasoning Technology: From Foundations to Applications. | Springer lists the edited volume with print publication in 1998 and editors Mario Lenz, Hans-Dieter Burkhard, Brigitte Bartsch-Spörl and Stefan Wess. The electronic edition date is separate. Publisher record | A new citation to this volume should use the publisher’s editor roles, name and relevant edition date. Retain the thesis entry as historical source text. |
| [25] gives pp. 204–219 for Leake and Sooriamurthi’s Automatically Selecting Strategies for Multi-Case-Base Reasoning. | The ECCBR 2002 publisher contents list 204–218. Proceedings contents | Proposed page-span correction for a new bibliographic record: 204–218. |
| [30] prints pp. “234.248” for Montaner, López and de la Rosa’s Improving Case Representation and Case Base Maintenance in Recommender Agents. | The publisher contents list 234–248 for that title and author group. Proceedings contents | Interpret the span as 234–248 in a new citation; keep the original punctuation in the preserved bibliography. |
| [32] gives Quinlan, “ID3 Algorithm,” Machine Learning 1(1), 1975. | Springer’s record for Quinlan’s “Induction of decision trees” is Machine Learning 1, 81–106, 1986; its abstract explicitly discusses ID3. Publisher record | This is a strong candidate for the intended ID3 reference, but the supplied thesis alone does not establish that identity. Mark it as a proposed match, not a silent replacement. |
These checks improve a reader’s ability to find the cited literature. They do not resolve the separate missing or mismatched in-text references identified by the internal review, and they do not change the historical thesis’s findings. Confirmed bibliographic metadata and a proposed match to an author’s intended source are different conclusions.
