Fusion of Heterogenous Sensor Data in Border Surveillance.
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 3 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
Wide area surveillance has become of critical importance, particularly for border control between countries where vast forested land border areas are to be monitored. In this paper, we address the problem of the automatic detection of activity in forbidden areas, namely forested land border areas. In order to avoid false detections, often triggered in dense vegetation with single sensors such as radar, we present a multi sensor fusion and tracking system using passive infrared detectors in combination with automatic person detection from thermal and visual video camera images. The approach combines weighted maps with a rule engine that associates data from multiple weighted maps. The proposed approach is tested on real data collected by the EU FOLDOUT project in a location representative of a range of forested EU borders. The results show that the proposed approach can eliminate single sensor false detections and enhance accuracy by up to 50%.
