Primes¶
- Clustering Illusion
- Genomics — motif-finding and association scans confront the illusion at scale, where thousands of candidate hits are spurious without multiple-testing correction. AI and ML interpretation — saliency-map artifacts and spurious feature-importance peaks are clustering-illusion-prone, with permutation tests as the corrective. Astronomy — false-pattern detection in noisy data, from canals of Mars to face-on-Mars features, met by computing the detector's false-alarm rate.
This sourceRecounts the Martian 'canals' episode (Schiaparelli, Lowell) as a false-pattern detection later explained as chance alignments of disconnected surface features at the limit of telescopic resolution.
