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

This paper describes a data collection experiment and the resulting dataset based on Bluetooth beacon messages collected in an indoor museum. The goal of this dataset is to study algorithms and techniques for proximity detection between people and points of interest (POI). To this purpose, we release the data we collected during 32 museum's visits, in which we vary the adopted smartphones and the visiting paths. The smartphone is used to collect Bluetooth beacons emitted by Bluetooth tags positioned nearby each POI. The visiting layout defines the order of visit of 10 artworks. The combination of different smartphones, the visiting paths and features of the indoor museum allow experiencing with realistic environmental conditions. The dataset comprises RSS (Received Signal Strength) values, timestamp and artwork identifiers, as long as a detailed ground truth, reporting the starting and ending time of each artwork's visit. The dataset is addressed to researchers and industrial players interested in further investigating how to automatically detect the location or the proximity between people and specific points of interest, by exploiting commercial technologies available with smartphone. The dataset is designed to speed up the prototyping process, by releasing an accurate ground truth annotation and details concerning the adopted hardware.
