Method for Determining Treated Metal Surface Quality Using Computer Vision Technology.
Review 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
Computer vision and image processing techniques have been extensively used in various fields and a wide range of applications, as well as recently in surface treatment to determine the quality of metal processing. Accordingly, digital image evaluation and processing are carried out to perform image segmentation, identification, and classification to ensure the quality of metal surfaces. In this work, a novel method is developed to effectively determine the quality of metal surface processing using computer vision techniques in real time, according to the average size of irregularities and caverns of captured metal surface images. The presented literature review focuses on classifying images into treated and untreated areas. The high computation burden to process a given image frame makes it unsuitable for real-time system applications. In addition, the considered current methods do not provide a quantitative assessment of the properties of the treated surfaces. The markup, processed, and untreated surfaces are explored based on the entropy criterion of information showing the randomness disorder of an already treated surface. However, the absence of an explicit indication of the magnitude of the irregularities carries a dependence on the lighting conditions, not allowing to explicitly specify such characteristics in the system. Moreover, due to the requirement of the mandatory use of specific area data, regarding the size of the cavities, the work is challenging in evaluating the average frequency of these cavities. Therefore, an algorithm is developed for finding the period of determining the quality of metal surface treatment, taking into account the porous matrix, and the complexities of calculating the surface tensor. Experimentally, the results of this work make it possible to effectively evaluate the quality of the treated surface, according to the criterion of the size of the resulting irregularities, with a frame processing time of 20 ms, closely meeting the real-time requirements.
