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

Speech imagery recognition from electroencephalograms (EEGs) could potentially become a strong contender among non-invasive brain-computer interfaces (BCIs). In this report, first we extract language representations as the difference of line-spectra of phones by statistically analyzing many EEG signals from the Broca area. Then we extract vowels by using iterative search from hand-labeled short-syllable data. The iterative search process consists of principal component analysis (PCA) that visualizes linguistic representation of vowels through eigen-vectors φ(m), and subspace method (SM) that searches an optimum line-spectrum for redesigning φ(m). The extracted linguistic representation of Japanese vowels /i/ /e/ /a/ /o/ /u/ shows 2 distinguished spectral peaks (P1, P2) in the upper frequency range. The 5 vowels are aligned on the P1-P2 chart. A 5-vowel recognition experiment using a data set of 5 subjects and a convolutional neural network (CNN) classifier gave a mean accuracy rate of 72.6%.
