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 recent years, maintenance work on public transport routes has drastically decreased in many countries due to difficult economic situations. The various studies that have been conducted by groups of drivers and groups related to road safety concluded that accidents are increasing due to the poor conditions of road surfaces, even affecting the condition of vehicles through costly breakdowns. Currently, the processes of detecting any type of damage to a road are carried out manually or are based on the use of a road vehicle, which incurs a high labor cost. To solve this problem, many research centers are investigating image processing techniques to identify poor-condition road areas using deep learning algorithms. The main objective of this work is to design of a distributed platform that allows the detection of damage to transport routes using drones and to provide the results of the most important classifiers. A case study is presented using a multi-agent system based on PANGEA that coordinates the different parts of the architecture using techniques based on ubiquitous computing. The results obtained by means of the customization of the You Only Look Once (YOLO) v4 classifier are promising, reaching an accuracy of more than 95%. The images used have been published in a dataset for use by the scientific community.
