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

Recently, the working scenes of the robot have been emerging as diversity and complexity with gradually mature of robotic control technology. The challenge of robot adaptability emerges, especially in complicated and unknown environments. Among the numerous researches on improving the adaptability of robots, aiming at avoiding collision between robot and external environment, obstacle avoidance has drawn much attention. Compared to the global circumvention requiring the environmental information that is known, the local obstacle avoidance is a promising method due to the environment is possibly dynamic and unknown. This study is aimed at making a review of research progress about local obstacle avoidance methods for wheeled mobile robots (WMRs) under complex unknown environment in the last 20 years. Sensor-based obstacle perception and identification is first introduced. Then, obstacle avoidance methods related to WMRs' motion control are reviewed, mainly including artificial potential field (APF)-based, population-involved meta heuristic-based, artificial neural network (ANN)-based, fuzzy logic (FL)-based and quadratic optimization-based, etc. Next, the relevant research on Unmanned Ground Vehicles (UGVs) is surveyed. Finally, conclusion and prospection are given. Appropriate obstacle avoidance methods should be chosen based on the specific requirements or criterion. For the moment, effective fusion of multiple obstacle avoidance methods is becoming a promising method.
