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

In this paper, an innovative optimal information fusion methodology based on adaptive and robust unscented Kalman filter (UKF) for multi-sensor nonlinear stochastic systems is proposed. Based on the linear minimum variance criterion, this multi-sensor information fusion method has a two-layer architecture: at the first layer, a new adaptive UKF scheme for the time-varying noise covariance is developed and serves as a local filter to improve the adaptability together with the estimated measurement noise covariance by applying the redundant measurement noise covariance estimation, which is isolated from the state estimation; the second layer is the fusion structure to calculate the optimal matrix weights and gives the final optimal state estimations. Based on the hypothesis testing theory with the Mahalanobis distance, the new adaptive UKF scheme utilizes both the innovation and the residual sequences to adapt the process noise covariance timely. The results of the target tracking simulations indicate that the proposed method is effective under the condition of time-varying process-error and measurement noise covariance.
