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 work, a new unsupervised classification approach is proposed for the biomedical image segmentation. The proposed method will be known as Fuzzy Electromagnetism Optimization (FEMO). As the name suggests, the proposed approach is based on the electromagnetism-like optimization (EMO) method. The EMO method is extended, modified, and combined with the modified type 2 fuzzy C-Means algorithm to improve its efficiency especially for biomedical image segmentation. The proposed FEMO method uses fuzzy membership and the electromagnetism-like optimization method to locate the optimal positions for the cluster centers. The proposed FEMO approach does not have any dependency on the initial selection of the cluster centers. Moreover, this method is suitable for the biomedical images of different modalities. This method is compared with some standard metaheuristics and evolutionary methods (e.g. Genetic Algorithm (GA), Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), Electromagnetism-like optimization (EMO), Ant Colony Optimization (ACO), etc.) based image segmentation approaches.
