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

Scab, frogeye spot, and cedar rust are three common types of apple leaf diseases, and the rapid diagnosis and accurate identification of them play an important role in the development of apple production. In this work, an improved model based on VGG16 is proposed to identify apple leaf diseases, in which the global average poling layer is used to replace the fully connected layer to reduce the parameters and a batch normalization layer is added to improve the convergence speed. A transfer learning strategy is used to avoid a long training time. The experimental results show that the overall accuracy of apple leaf classification based on the proposed model can reach 99.01%. Compared with the classical VGG16, the model parameters are reduced by 89%, the recognition accuracy is improved by 6.3%, and the training time is reduced to 0.56% of that of the original model. Therefore, the deep convolutional neural network model proposed in this work provides a better solution for the identification of apple leaf diseases with higher accuracy and a faster convergence speed.
