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

Indoor localization is an important issue for indoor location-based services. As opposed to the other indoor localization approaches, the radio frequency (RF) based approaches are low-energy solutions with simple implementation. The kernel learning has been used for the RF-based indoor localization in 2D environment. However, the kernel learning has not been used in 3D environment. Hence, this paper proposes a multi-kernel learning scheme for 3D indoor localization. Based on the signals collected in the area of interest, the WiFi signals with better quality and closer to the user are selected so as to reduce the multipath effect and the external interference. Through the construction of multi-kernel, the localization accuracy can be improved as opposed to the localization based on the single kernel. We build multiple kernels to get the user's location by collecting wireless received signal strengths (RSS) and signal-to-noise ratios (SNR). The kernel learning maps data to high dimension space and uses the optimization process to find the surface where the data are mapped. By multi-kernel training, the surface is fine-tuned and eventually converges to form the location database during the mapping process. The proposed localization scheme is verified by the real RSS and SNR collected from multiple wireless access points (AP) in a building. The experimental results verify that the proposed multi-kernel learning scheme performs better than the multi-DNN scheme and the existing kernel-based localization schemes in terms of localization accuracy and error in 3D indoor environment.
