Neural Reduction of Image Data in Order to Determine the Quality of Malting Barley.
Article in Sensors (Basel, Switzerland), 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
Image analysis using neural modeling is one of the most dynamically developing methods employing artificial intelligence. The feature that caused such widespread use of this technique is mostly the ability of automatic generalization of scientific knowledge as well as the possibility of parallel analysis of the empirical data. A properly conducted learning process of artificial neural network (ANN) allows the classification of new, unknown data, which helps to increase the efficiency of the generated models in practice. Neural image analysis is a method that allows extracting information carried in the form of digital images. The paper focuses on the determination of imperfections such as contaminations and damages in the malting barley grains on the basis of information encoded in the graphic form represented by the digital photographs of kernels. This choice was dictated by the current state of knowledge regarding the classification of contamination that uses undesirable features of kernels to exclude them from use in the malting industry. Currently, a qualitative assessment of kernels is carried by malthouse-certified employees acting as experts. Contaminants are separated from a sample of malting barley manually, and the percentages of previously defined groups of contaminations are calculated. The analysis of the problem indicates a lack of effective methods of identifying the quality of barley kernels, such as the use of information technology. There are new possibilities of using modern methods of artificial intelligence (such as neural image analysis) for the determination of impurities in malting barley. However, there is the problem of effective compression of graphic data to a form acceptable for ANN simulators. The aim of the work is to develop an effective procedure of graphical data compression supporting the qualitative assessment of malting barley with the use of modern information technologies. Image analysis can be implemented into dedicated software.
