An ideal quantized mask to increase intelligibility and quality of speech in noise.
Article in The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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.
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
Time-frequency (T-F) masks represent powerful tools to increase the intelligibility of speech in background noise. Translational relevance is provided by their accurate estimation based only on the signal-plus-noise mixture, using deep learning or other machine-learning techniques. In the current study, a technique is designed to capture the benefits of existing techniques. In the ideal quantized mask (IQM), speech and noise are partitioned into T-F units, and each unit receives one of
