A Wi-Fi Indoor Positioning Method Based on an Integration of EMDT and WKNN.
Article in Sensors (Basel, Switzerland), 2022. 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
In indoor positioning, signal fluctuation is one of the main factors affecting positioning accuracy. To solve this problem, a new method based on an integration of the empirical mode decomposition threshold smoothing method (EMDT) and improved weighted K nearest neighbor (WKNN), named EMDT-WKNN, is proposed in this paper. First, the nonlinear and non-stationary received signal strength indication (RSSI) sequences are constructed. Secondly, intrinsic mode functions (IMF) selection criteria based on energy analysis method and fluctuation coefficients is proposed. Thirdly, the EMDT method is employed to smooth the RSSI fluctuation. Finally, to further avoid the influence of RSSI fluctuation on the positioning accuracy, the deviated matching points are removed, and more precise combined weights are constructed by combining the geometric distance of the matching points and the Euclidean distance of fingerprints in the positioning method-WKNN. The experimental results show that, on an underground parking dataset, the positioning accuracy based on EMDT-WKNN can reach 1.73 m in the 75th percentile positioning error, which is 27.6% better than 2.39 m of the original RSSI positioning method.
