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

Energy and failure are separately managed in scheduling problems despite the commonalities between these optimization problems. In this paper, an energy- and failure-aware continuous production scheduling problem (EFACPS) at the unit process level is investigated, starting from the construction of a centralized combinatorial optimization model combining energy saving and failure reduction. Traditional deterministic scheduling methods are difficult to rapidly acquire an optimal or near-optimal schedule in the face of frequent machine failures. An improved genetic algorithm (IGA) using a customized microbial genetic evolution strategy is proposed to solve the EFACPS problem. The IGA is integrated with three features: Memory search, problem-based randomization, and result evaluation. Based on real production cases from Soubry N.V., a large pasta manufacturer in Belgium, Monte Carlo simulations (MCS) are carried out to compare the performance of IGA with a conventional genetic algorithm (CGA) and a baseline random choice algorithm (RCA). Simulation results demonstrate a good performance of IGA and the feasibility to apply it to EFACPS problems. Large-scale experiments are further conducted to validate the effectiveness of IGA.
