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

Spiking neural networks (SNNs) using time-to-first-spike (TTFS) codes, in which neurons fire at most once, are appealing for rapid and low power processing. In this theoretical paper, we focus on information coding and decoding in those networks, and introduce a new unifying mathematical framework that allows the comparison of various coding schemes. In an early proposal, called rank-order coding (ROC), neurons are maximally activated when inputs arrive in the order of their synaptic weights, thanks to a shunting inhibition mechanism that progressively desensitizes the neurons as spikes arrive. In another proposal, called NoM coding, only the first
