“Once judgmental biases are identified, researchers start trying to eliminate them using one of two strategies. The first accepts the existence of the bias and concentrates on devising schemes, such as training programs, that will reduce it. The second claims that the bias is not very robust and important and concentrates on devising experimental situations in which it will not appear. Together, these strategies circumscribe the universe of debiasing procedures.”

“[These] ... may then be used to generate type fractions that are unbiased with respect to galaxy luminosity, size and redshift. The thresholding approach may also be based on these debiased likelihoods, .... The performance of our debiasing procedure may be judged from the thick lines in Fig. 2.”

“We also used CORBITS to geometrically debias the period ratio and mutual Hill sphere distributions of Kepler's multi-transiting planet candidates, which results in shifting these distributions towards slightly larger values.”
