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

The automated measurement of crop phenotypic parameters is of great significance to the quantitative study of crop growth. The segmentation and classification of crop point cloud help to realize the automation of crop phenotypic parameter measurement. At present, crop spike-shaped point cloud segmentation has problems such as fewer samples, uneven distribution of point clouds, occlusion of stem and spike, disorderly arrangement of point clouds, and lack of targeted network models. The traditional clustering method can realize the segmentation of the plant organ point cloud with relatively independent spatial location, but the accuracy is not acceptable. This paper first builds a desktop-level point cloud scanning apparatus based on a structured-light projection module to facilitate the point cloud acquisition process. Then, the rice ear point cloud was collected, and the rice ear point cloud data set was made. In addition, data argumentation is used to improve sample utilization efficiency and training accuracy. Finally, a 3D point cloud convolutional neural network model called Panicle-3D was designed to achieve better segmentation accuracy. Specifically, the design of Panicle-3D is aimed at the multiscale characteristics of plant organs, combined with the structure of PointConv and long and short jumps, which accelerates the convergence speed of the network and reduces the loss of features in the process of point cloud downsampling. After comparison experiments, the segmentation accuracy of Panicle-3D reaches 93.4%, which is higher than PointNet. Panicle-3D is suitable for other similar crop point cloud segmentation tasks.
