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 quantification of behaviors of interest from video data is commonly used to study brain function, the effects of pharmacological interventions, and genetic alterations. Existing approaches lack the capability to analyze the behavior of groups of animals in complex environments. We present a novel deep learning architecture for classifying individual and social animal behavior, even in complex environments directly from raw video frames, while requiring no intervention after initial human supervision. Our behavioral classifier is embedded in a pipeline (SIPEC) that performs segmentation, identification, pose-estimation, and classification of complex behavior, outperforming the state of the art. SIPEC successfully recognizes multiple behaviors of freely moving individual mice as well as socially interacting non-human primates in 3D, using data only from simple mono-vision cameras in home-cage setups.
