Machine Learning Imagery Dataset for Maize Crop: A Case of Tanzania.
Article in Data in brief, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Maize is one of the most important staple food and cash crops that are largely produced by majority of smallholder farmers throughout the humid and sub-humid tropic of Africa. Despite its significance in the household food security and income, diseases, especially Maize Lethal Necrosis and Maize Streak, have been significantly affecting production of this crop. This paper offers a dataset of well curated images of maize crop for both healthy and diseased leaves captured using smartphone camera in Tanzania. The dataset is the largest publicly accessible dataset for maize leaves with a total of 18,148 images, which can be used to develop machine learning models for the early detection of diseases affecting maize. Moreover, the dataset can be used to support computer vision applications such as image segmentation, object detection and classification. The goal of generating this dataset is to assist the development of comprehensive tools that will help farmers in the diagnosis of diseases and the enhancement of maize yields thus eradicating the problem of fod security in Tanzania and other parts in Africa.
