About This Project
Tortured phrases, characterized by complex and ambiguous language, obscure authors' real meanings and pose a growing threat to scholarly credibility. For instance, "counterfeit neural organizations" instead of "Artificial Neural Networks" and "portrayal learning" instead of "representation learning." To counter this issue, we will analyze 15,000 articles, investigating how tortured phrases correlate with article retractions, author ethics, and their impact on publishers and institutions.
