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

backgroundStudying the relationships between rapeseed seed yield (SY) and its yield-related traits can assist rapeseed breeders in the efficient indirect selection of high-yielding varieties. However, since the conventional and linear methods cannot interpret the complicated relations between SY and other traits, employing advanced machine learning algorithms is inevitable. Our main goal was to find the best combination of machine learning algorithms and feature selection methods to maximize the efficiency of indirect selection for rapeseed SY.

resultsTo achieve that, twenty-five regression-based machine learning algorithms and six feature selection methods were employed. SY and yield-related data from twenty rapeseed genotypes were collected from field experiments over a period of 2 years (2019-2021). Root mean square error (RMSE), mean absolute error (MAE), and determination coefficient (R

conclusionThe results of this study showed that MLPNN-Identity along with stepwise and backward selection methods can provide a robust combination to accurately predict the SY using fewer traits and therefore help optimize and accelerate SY breeding programs of rapeseed.
