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

We propose a new method for bipartite link prediction using matrix factorization with negative sample selection. Bipartite link prediction is a problem that aims to predict the missing links or relations in a bipartite network. One of the most popular solutions to the problem is via matrix factorization (MF), which performs well but requires reliable information on both absent and present network links as training samples. This, however, is sometimes unavailable since there is no ground truth for absent links. To solve the problem, we propose a technique called negative sample selection, which selects reliable negative training samples using formal concept analysis (FCA) of a given bipartite network in advance of the preceding MF process. We conduct experiments on two hypothetical application scenarios to prove that our joint method outperforms the raw MF-based link prediction method as well as all other previously-proposed unsupervised link prediction methods.
