Gradient Decomposition Methods for Training Neural Networks With Non-ideal Synaptic Devices.
Article in Frontiers in neuroscience, 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
While promising for high-capacity machine learning accelerators, memristor devices have non-idealities that prevent software-equivalent accuracies when used for online training. This work uses a combination of Mini-Batch Gradient Descent (MBGD) to average gradients, stochastic rounding to avoid vanishing weight updates, and decomposition methods to keep the memory overhead low during mini-batch training. Since the weight update has to be transferred to the memristor matrices efficiently, we also investigate the impact of reconstructing the gradient matrixes both internally (
