It was tried to get useful information feedback on cross section and covariance by application of extended bias factor method with experimental benchmarks’ C/E, sensitivity coefficient and covariance data. As a result, it was succeeded to distinguish “the case unrecommended by specialists” as outlier case. And it was succeeded to get the hints that there is room for improvement in cross section or covariance of some nuclides by investigating outlier cases judged as recommended case by specialists.
