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 focuses on inferring a general class of hidden Markov models (HMMs) using data acquired from experts. Expert-acquired data contain decisions/actions made by humans/users for various objectives, such as navigation data reflecting drivers' behavior, cybersecurity data carrying defender decisions, and biological data containing the biologist's actions (e.g., interventions and experiments). Conventional inference methods rely on temporal changes in data without accounting for expert knowledge. This paper incorporates expert knowledge into the inference of HMMs by modeling expert behavior as an imperfect reinforcement learning agent. The proposed method optimally quantifies experts' perceptions about the system model, which, alongside the temporal changes in data, contributes to the inference process. The proposed inference method is derived through a combination of dynamic programming and optimal recursive Bayesian estimation. The applicability of this method is demonstrated to a wide range of inference criteria, such as maximum likelihood and maximum a posteriori. The performance of the proposed method is investigated through a comprehensive numerical experiment using a benchmark problem and biological networks.
