From animal collective behaviors to swarm robotic cooperation.
Review in National science review, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
The collective behaviors of animals, from schooling fish to packing wolves and flocking birds, display plenty of fascinating phenomena that result from simple interaction rules among individuals. The emergent intelligent properties of the animal collective behaviors, such as self-organization, robustness, adaptability and expansibility, have inspired the design of autonomous unmanned swarm systems. This article reviews several typical natural collective behaviors, introduces the origin and connotation of swarm intelligence, and gives the application case of animal collective behaviors. On this basis, the article focuses on the forefront of progress and bionic achievements of aerial, ground and marine robotics swarms, illustrating the mapping relationship from biological cooperative mechanisms to cooperative unmanned cluster systems. Finally, considering the significance of the coexisting-cooperative-cognitive human-machine system, the key technologies to be solved are given as the reference directions for the subsequent exploration.
