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

Inferring missing links based on the currently observed network is known as link prediction, which has tremendous real-world applications in biomedicine, e-commerce, social media, and criminal intelligence. Numerous methods have been proposed to solve the link prediction problem. Yet, many of these methods are designed for undirected networks only and based on domain-specific heuristics. Here we developed a new link prediction method based on deep generative models, which does not rely on any domain-specific heuristic and works for general undirected or directed complex networks. Our key idea is to represent the adjacency matrix of a network as an image and then learn hierarchical feature representations of the image by training a deep generative model. Those features correspond to structural patterns in the network at different scales, from small subgraphs to mesoscopic communities. When applied to various real-world networks from different domains, our method shows overall superior performance against existing methods.
