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

In order to remedy the defects of single sensor in robustness, accuracy, and redundancy of target detection, this paper proposed a method for detecting obstacles in farmland based on the information fusion of a millimeter wave (mmWave) radar and a camera. Combining the advantages of the mmWave radar in range and speed measurement and the camera in type identification and lateral localization, a decision-level fusion algorithm was designed for the mmWave radar and camera information, and the global nearest neighbor method was used for data association. Then, the effective target sequences of the mmWave radar and the camera with successful data association were weighted to output, and the output included more accurate target orientation, longitudinal speed, and category. For the unassociated sequences, they were tracked as new targets by using the extended Kalman filter algorithm and were processed and output during the effective life cycle. Lastly, an experimental platform based on a tractor was built to verify the effectiveness of the proposed association detection method. The obstacle detection test was conducted under the ROS environment after solving the external parameters of the mmWave radar and the internal and external parameters of the camera. The test results show that the correct detection rate of obstacles reaches 86.18%, which is higher than that of a single camera with 62.47%. Furthermore, through the contrast experiment of the sensor fusion algorithms, the detection accuracy of the decision level fusion algorithm was 95.19%, which was higher than 4.38% and 6.63% compared with feature level and data level fusion, respectively.
