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

Portable box volume measurement has always been a popular issue in the intelligent logistic industry. This work presents a portable system for box volume measurement that is based on line-structured light vision and deep learning. This system consists of a novel 2 × 2 laser line grid projector, a sensor, and software modules, with which only two laser-modulated images of boxes are required for volume measurement. For laser-modulated images, a novel end-to-end deep learning model is proposed by using an improved holistically nested edge detection network to extract edges. Furthermore, an automatic one-step calibration method for the line-structured light projector is designed for fast calibration. The experimental results show that the measuring range of our proposed system is 100-1800 mm, with errors less than ±5.0 mm. Theoretical analysis indicates that within the measuring range of the system, the measurement uncertainty of the measuring device is ±0.52 mm to ±4.0 mm, which is consistent with the experimental results. The device size is 140 mm × 35 mm × 35 mm and the weight is 110 g, thus the system is suitable for portable automatic box volume measurement.
