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

Measuring the mass flow of sugarcane in real-time is essential for harvester automation and crop monitoring. Data integration from multiple sensors should be an alternative to receive more reliable, accurate, and valuable predictions than data delivered by a single sensor. In this sense, the objective was to evaluate if the fusion of different sensors installed in a sugarcane harvester improves the mass flow prediction accuracy. A harvester was experimentally instrumented, and neural network models integrated sensor data along the harvester to perform the self-calibration of these sensors and estimate the mass flow. Nonlinear autoregressive networks with exogenous input (NARX) and multiple linear regression (MLR) models were compared to predict the mass flow. The prediction with the NARX showed a significant superiority over MLR. MLR decreases the estimated mass flow variability in the harvester. NARX with multi-sensor data has an RMSE of 0.3 kg s
