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

Primates can recognize features in virtually all types of images, an ability that still requires a comprehensive computational explanation. One hypothesis is that visual cortex neurons learn patterns from scenes, objects, and textures, and use these patterns to interpolate incoming visual information. We have used machine learning algorithms to instantiate visual patterns stored by neurons-we call these highly activating images prototypes. Prototypes from inferotemporal (IT) neurons often resemble parts of real-world objects, such as monkey faces and body parts, a similarity established via pretrained neural networks [C. R. Ponce
