A machine-readable knowledge base of statistical and computational methods. Each entry is a Method Card: what a method can do, under what conditions, and how. Verified cards become available to the statLens Agent, and their authors are cited whenever they are used.
Everything you enter becomes a structured Method Card. The fields marked selection-critical are what allow statLens to decide whether your method fits a researcher’s study — they matter more than prose. Read the contributor guide.
* Required to submit. Everything else is optional, and you can save a draft at any time.
Selection-critical. Example questions are embedded and matched against researcher questions.
statLens convention: omics tables have rows = samples, columns = features; metadata has rows = samples, columns = study variables.
Selection-critical. These become hard filters — a method is excluded outright when a characteristic of the user's data is unsupported.
Selection-critical. Designs for which the method is appropriate.
Selection-critical. The formulation is rendered on your Method Card and checked against the software you name in section 10.
Typed relationships to existing Method Cards. These edges let statLens reason about sequences of methods, not only single choices.
Map your result table onto the statLens standard statistical result wherever possible. Unmapped fields are kept as method-specific columns.
Stored so it can be exported as CodeMeta and CITATION.cff.
The paper that introduces or describes the method. Users of your method are asked to cite it.
Verification requires at least one reproducible example. Simulated data is acceptable.
Your card is reviewed before it becomes available to the statLens Agent. Submitted cards are not edited in place.
