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, we present a new procedure to solve the global localization of mobile robots called Environmental Stimulus Localization (ESL). We propose that the presence of common facts on the environment around the robot can be considered as stimuli for the procedure. The robust performance of our approach is supported by two concurrent particle filters. A primary particle filter estimates and tracks the robot position, while a secondary filter is fired by environmental stimuli, helps to reduce the influence of measurement errors and allows an earlier recovery from localization failures. We have successfully used this method in a 5000 m 2 real indoor environment using as inputs the available environment information from a Geographical Information System (GIS) map, the robot's odometry and the output of an algorithm for the perception of facts from the environment. We present a case study and the result of different tests, showing the performance of our method under the influence of errors in real applications.
