A Critical Review on Artificial Intelligence-Based Microplastics Imaging Technology: Recent Advances, Hot-Spots and Challenges.
Review in International journal of environmental research and public health, 2023. 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
Due to the rapid artificial intelligence technology progress and innovation in various fields, this research aims to use science mapping tools to comprehensively and objectively analyze recent advances, hot-spots, and challenges in artificial intelligence-based microplastic-imaging field from the Web of Science (2019-2022). By text mining and visualization in the scientific literature we emphasized some opportunities to bring forward further explication and analysis by (i) exploring efficient and low-cost automatic quantification methods in the appearance properties of microplastics, such as shape, size, volume, and topology, (ii) investigating microplastics water-soluble synthetic polymers and interaction with other soil and water ecology environments via artificial intelligence technologies, (iii) advancing efficient artificial intelligence algorithms and models, even including intelligent robot technology, (iv) seeking to create and share robust data sets, such as spectral libraries and toxicity database and co-operation mechanism, (v) optimizing the existing deep learning models based on the readily available data set to balance the related algorithm performance and interpretability, (vi) facilitating Unmanned Aerial Vehicle technology coupled with artificial intelligence technologies and data sets in the mass quantities of microplastics. Our major findings were that the research of artificial intelligence methods to revolutionize environmental science was progressing toward multiple cross-cutting areas, dramatically increasing aspects of the ecology of plastisphere, microplastics toxicity, rapid identification, and volume assessment of microplastics. The above findings can not only determine the characteristics and track of scientific development, but also help to find suitable research opportunities to carry out more in-depth research with many problems remaining.
