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

Traditional trajectory compression algorithms, such as the siliding window (SW) algorithm and the Douglas-Peucker (DP) algorithm, typically use static thresholds based on fixed parameters like ship dimensions or predetermined distances, which limits their adaptive capabilities. In this paper, the adaptive core threshold difference-DP (ACTD-DP) algorithm is proposed based on traditional DP algorithm. Firstly, according to the course value of automatic identification system (AIS) data, the original trajectory data is preprocessed and some redundant points are discarded. Then the number of compressed trajectory points corresponding to different thresholds is quantified. The function relationship between them is established by curve fitting method. The characteristics of the function curve are analyzed, and the core threshold and core threshold difference are solved. Finally, the compression factor is introduced to determine the optimal core threshold difference, which is the key parameter to control the accuracy and efficiency of the algorithm. Five different algorithms are used to compress the all ship trajectories in the experimental water area. The average compression ratio (ACR) of the ACTD-DP algorithm is 87.53%, the average length loss ratio (ALLR) is 23.20%, the AMSED (mean synchronous Euclidean distance of all trajectories) is 68.9747 mx, and the TIME is 25.6869 s. Compared with the other four algorithms, the ACTD-DP algorithm shows that the algorithm can not only achieve high compression ratio, but also maintain the integrity of trajectory shape. At the same time, the compression results of four different trajectories show that ACTD-DP algorithm has good robustness and applicability. Therefore, ACTD-DP algorithm has the best compression effect.
