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

To enrich the diversity of artificial neurons, a type of quadratic neurons was proposed previously, where the inner product of inputs and weights is replaced by a quadratic operation. In this paper, we demonstrate the superiority of such quadratic neurons over conventional counterparts. For this purpose, we train such quadratic neural networks using an adapted backpropagation algorithm and perform a systematic comparison between quadratic and conventional neural networks for classificaiton of Gaussian mixture data, which is one of the most important machine learning tasks. Our results show that quadratic neural networks enjoy remarkably better efficacy and efficiency than conventional neural networks in this context, and potentially extendable to other relevant applications.
