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

Internet of Things (IoT) involves a set of devices that aids in achieving a smart environment. Healthcare systems, which are IoT-oriented, provide monitoring services of patients' data and help take immediate steps in an emergency. Currently, machine learning-based techniques are adopted to ensure security and other non-functional requirements in smart health care systems. However, no attention is given to classifying the non-functional requirements from requirement documents. The manual process of classifying the non-functional requirements from documents is erroneous and laborious. Missing non-functional requirements in the Requirement Engineering (RE) phase results in IoT oriented healthcare system with compromised security and performance. In this research, an experiment is performed where non-functional requirements are classified from the IoT-oriented healthcare system's requirement document. The machine learning algorithms considered for classification are Logistic Regression (LR), Support Vector Machine (SVM), Multinomial Naive Bayes (MNB), K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN), ensemble, Random Forest (RF), and hybrid KNN rule-based machine learning (ML) algorithms. The results show that our novel hybrid KNN rule-based machine learning algorithm outperforms others by showing an average classification accuracy of 75.9% in classifying non-functional requirements from IoT-oriented healthcare requirement documents. This research is not only novel in its concept of using a machine learning approach for classification of non-functional requirements from IoT-oriented healthcare system requirement documents, but it also proposes a novel hybrid KNN-rule based machine learning algorithm for classification with better accuracy. A new dataset is also created for classification purposes, comprising requirements related to IoT-oriented healthcare systems. However, since this dataset is small and consists of only 104 requirements, this might affect the generalizability of the results of this research.
