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

Considering that the existing path planning algorithms for mobile robots under rugged terrain do not consider the ground flatness and the lack of optimality, which leads to the instability of the center of mass of the mobile robot, this paper proposes an improved A* algorithm for mobile robots under rugged terrain based on the ground accessibility model and the ground ruggedness model. Firstly, the ground accessibility and ruggedness models are established based on the elevation map, expressing the ground flatness. Secondly, the elevation cost function that can obtain the optimal path is designed based on the two types of models combined with the characteristics of the A* algorithm, and the continuous cost function is established by connecting with the original distance cost function, which avoids the center-of-mass instability caused by the non-optimal path. Finally, the effectiveness of the improved algorithm is verified by simulation and experiment. The results show that compared with the existing commonly used path planning algorithms under rugged terrain, the enhanced algorithm improves the smoothness of paths and the optimization degree of paths in the path planning process under rough terrain.
