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

Path planning is an essential technology for lunar rover to achieve safe and efficient autonomous exploration mission, this paper proposes a learning-based end-to-end path planning algorithm for lunar rovers with safety constraints. Firstly, a training environment integrating real lunar surface terrain data was built using the Gazebo simulation environment and a lunar rover simulator was created in it to simulate the real lunar surface environment and the lunar rover system. Then an end-to-end path planning algorithm based on deep reinforcement learning method is designed, including state space, action space, network structure, reward function considering slip behavior, and training method based on proximal policy optimization. In addition, to improve the generalization ability to different lunar surface topography and different scale environments, a variety of training scenarios were set up to train the network model using the idea of curriculum learning. The simulation results show that the proposed planning algorithm can successfully achieve the end-to-end path planning of the lunar rover, and the path generated by the proposed algorithm has a higher safety guarantee compared with the classical path planning algorithm.
