Summary: Introduces a support metric to quantify how cherry-picked temporal trendlines and their associated claims are. Develops efficient algorithms for scoring and discovering maximally supported statements, with theoretical guarantees and empirical validation. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
