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

Many feature selection methods have been evaluated in functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS)-related studies. The local interpretable model-agnostic explanation (LIME) algorithm is a feature selection method for fNIRS datasets that has not yet been validated; the demand for its validation is increasing. To this end, we assessed the feature selection performance of LIME for fNIRS datasets in terms of classification accuracy. A comparative analysis was conducted for the benchmark (classification accuracy obtained without applying any feature selection method), LIME, two filter-based methods (minimum-redundancy maximum-relevance and t-test), and one wrapper-based method (sequential forward selection). To ensure the fairness and reliability of the performance evaluation, several open-access fNIRS datasets were used. The analysis revealed that LIME greatly outperformed the other feature selection methods in most cases and could achieve a statistically significantly better classification accuracy than that of the benchmark methods. These findings implied the effectiveness of LIME as a feature selection approach for fNIRS datasets.
