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

Traditional supervised learning classifier needs a lot of labeled samples to achieve good performance, however in many biological datasets there is only a small size of labeled samples and the remaining samples are unlabeled. Labeling these unlabeled samples manually is difficult or expensive. Technologies such as active learning and semi-supervised learning have been proposed to utilize the unlabeled samples for improving the model performance. However in active learning the model suffers from being short-sighted or biased and some manual workload is still needed. The semi-supervised learning methods are easy to be affected by the noisy samples. In this paper we propose a novel logistic regression model based on complementarity of active learning and semi-supervised learning, for utilizing the unlabeled samples with least cost to improve the disease classification accuracy. In addition to that, an update pseudo-labeled samples mechanism is designed to reduce the false pseudo-labeled samples. The experiment results show that this new model can achieve better performances compared the widely used semi-supervised learning and active learning methods in disease classification and gene selection.
