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

The three-dimensional (3D) geometric evaluation of large thermal forging parts online is critical to quality control and energy conservation. However, this online 3D measurement task is extremely challenging for commercially available 3D sensors because of the enormous amount of heat radiation and complexity of the online environment. To this end, an automatic and accurate 3D shape measurement system integrated with a fringe projection-based 3D scanner and an industrial robot is presented. To resist thermal radiation, a double filter set and an intelligent temperature control loop are employed in the system. In addition, a time-division-multiplexing trigger is implemented in the system to accelerate pattern projection and capture, and an improved multi-frequency phase-shifting method is proposed to reduce the number of patterns required for 3D reconstruction. Thus, the 3D measurement efficiency is drastically improved and the exposure to the thermal environment is reduced. To perform data alignment in a complex online environment, a view integration method is used in the system to align non-overlapping 3D data from different views based on the repeatability of the robot motion. Meanwhile, a robust 3D registration algorithm is used to align 3D data accurately in the presence of irrelevant background data. These components and algorithms were evaluated by experiments. The system was deployed in a forging factory on a production line and performed a stable online 3D quality inspection for thermal axles.
