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

Biodiversity is being lost at an unprecedented rate on Earth. As a first step to more effectively combat this process we need efficient methods to monitor biodiversity changes. Recent technological advance can provide powerful tools (e.g. camera traps, digital acoustic recorders, satellite imagery, social media records) that can speed up the collection of biological data. Nevertheless, the processing steps of the raw data served by these tools are still painstakingly slow. A new computer technology, deep learning based artificial intelligence, might, however, help. In this short and subjective review I oversee recent technological advances used in conservation biology, highlight problems of processing their data, shortly describe deep learning technology and show case studies of its use in conservation biology. Some of the limitations of the technology are also highlighted.
