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

Multi-scale feature fusion techniques and covariance pooling have been shown to have positive implications for completing computer vision tasks, including fine-grained image classification. However, existing algorithms that use multi-scale feature fusion techniques for fine-grained classification tend to consider only the first-order information of the features, failing to capture more discriminative features. Likewise, existing fine-grained classification algorithms using covariance pooling tend to focus only on the correlation between feature channels without considering how to better capture the global and local features of the image. Therefore, this paper proposes a multi-scale covariance pooling network (MSCPN) that can capture and better fuse features at different scales to generate more representative features. Experimental results on the CUB200 and MIT indoor67 datasets achieve state-of-the-art performance (CUB200: 94.31% and MIT indoor67: 92.11%).
