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

Context recognition using wearable devices is a mature research area, but one of the biggest issues it faces is the high energy consumption of the device that is sensing and processing the data. In this work we propose three different methods for optimizing its energy use. We also show how to combine all three methods to further increase the energy savings. The methods work by adapting system settings (sensors used, sampling frequency, duty cycling, etc.) to both the detected context and directly to the sensor data. This is done by mathematically modeling the influence of different system settings and using multiobjective optimization to find the best ones. The proposed methodology is tested on four different context-recognition tasks where we show that it can generate accurate energy-efficient solutions-in one case reducing energy consumption by 95% in exchange for only four percentage points of accuracy. We also show that the method is general, requires next to no expert knowledge about the domain being optimized, and that it outperforms two approaches from the related work.
