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

In this paper, a robust non-rigid feature matching approach for image registration with geometry constraints is proposed. The non-rigid feature matching approach is formulated as a maximum likelihood (ML) estimation problem. The feature points of one image are represented by Gaussian mixture model (GMM) centroids, and are fitted to the feature points of the other image by moving coherently to encode the global structure. To preserve the local geometry of these feature points, two local structure descriptors of the connectivity matrix and Laplacian coordinate are constructed. The expectation maximization (EM) algorithm is applied to solve this ML problem. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed approach has better performance than current state-of-the-art methods.
