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

The flying foxes optimization (FFO) algorithm stimulated by the strategy used by flying foxes for subsistence in heat wave environments has shown good performance in the single-objective domain. Aiming to explore the effectiveness and benefits of the subsistence strategy used by flying foxes in solving optimization challenges involving multiple objectives, this research proposes a decomposition-based multi-objective flying foxes optimization algorithm (MOEA/D-FFO). It exhibits a great population management strategy, which mainly includes the following features. (1) In order to improve the exploration effectiveness of the flying fox population, a new offspring generation mechanism is introduced to improve the efficiency of exploration of peripheral space by flying fox populations. (2) A new population updating approach is proposed to adjust the neighbor matrices to the corresponding flying fox individuals using the new offspring, with the aim of enhancing the rate of convergence in the population. Through comparison experiments with classical algorithms (MOEA/D, NSGA-II, IBEA) and cutting-edge algorithms (MOEA/D-DYTS, MOEA/D-UR), MOEA/D-FFO achieves more than 11 best results. In addition, the experimental results under different population sizes show that the proposed algorithm is highly adaptable and has good application prospects in optimization problems for engineering applications.
