1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

With the increasing availability of low-cost, commercially available unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), visual tracking using UAVs has become more and more important due to its many new applications, including automatic navigation, obstacle avoidance, traffic monitoring, search and rescue, etc. However, real-world aerial tracking poses many challenges due to platform motion and image instability, such as aspect ratio change, viewpoint change, fast motion, scale variation and so on. In this paper, an efficient object tracking method for UAV videos is proposed to tackle these challenges. We construct the fused features to capture the gradient information and color characteristics simultaneously. Furthermore, cellular automata is introduced to update the appearance template of target accurately and sparsely. In particular, a high confidence model updating strategy is developed according to the stability function. Systematic comparative evaluations performed on the popular UAV123 dataset show the efficiency of the proposed approach.
