No record in the supplied corpus attributes any paper to an author named "W. Bloch." The corpus spans Bayesian particle tracking in microscopy (IEEE TPAMI 2013) , neural-field theory of neuronal loss , phononic FDTD postprocessing , topology optimization for nano-photonics , quantum optimal control , metamaterial negative refraction , DNA thermal/electrical transport , quasiperiodic LC dispersion , nanofiber atom arrays , knot-theoretic Bloch-sphere extensions , dye-laser self-pulsing, slow guided waves, WTAO bonding analysis , Pt(110) surface transitions, porous-scaffold acoustics, and the pharmacogenetics meta-analysis above.
What would be needed: an ORCID iD, affiliation history, or a bibliographic seed list for "W. Bloch." Ambiguity risks are concrete: (1) the pharmacogenetics record names K. Bloch, a different initial; (2) several records discuss Bloch equations, Bloch waves, or the Bloch sphere as physics concepts, not authors β conflating topic with person is the most likely failure mode of automated author search; (3) no record reports conflict-of-interest or affiliation data for any W. Bloch, so conflict-of-interest screening is impossible from this corpus. Running the agent below on the full corpus metadata could attempt fuzzy author matching, but it cannot conjure a verified identity without external bibliographic databases.
Note: the bar chart reports corpus-level extraction quality scores for the 12 fully-scored records; it is not an author score for W. Bloch, whose identity is unverified. If W. Bloch authored none of these works, all inherited assessments would be invalid β this is the falsification condition for any verdict built here.
