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

Obstacle avoidance is an important subject in the control of robot manipulators, but is remains challenging for robots with redundant degrees of freedom, especially when there exist complex physical constraints. In this paper, we propose a novel controller based on deep recurrent neural networks. By abstracting robots and obstacles into critical point sets respectively, the distance between the robot and obstacles can be described in a simpler way, then the obstacle avoidance strategy is established in form of inequality constraints by general class-K functions. Using minimal-velocity-norm (MVN) scheme, the control problem is formulated as a quadratic-programming case under multiple constraints. Then a deep recurrent neural network considering system models is established to solve the QP problem online. Theoretical conduction and numerical simulations show that the controller is capable of avoiding static or dynamic obstacles, while tracking the predefined trajectories under physical constraints.
