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

At present, tomato transplanting in facility agriculture is mainly manual operation. In an attempt to resolve the problems of high labor intensity and low efficiency of manual operation, this paper designs a clip stem automatic transplanting and seedling picking device based on the yolov5 algorithm. First of all, through the study of the characteristics of tomato seedlings of different seedling ages, the age of tomato seedlings suitable for transplanting was obtained. Secondly, the improved yolov5 algorithm was used to determine the position and shape of tomato seedlings. By adding a lightweight upsampling operator (CARAFE) and an improved loss function, the feature extraction ability and detection speed of tomato seedling stems were improved. The accuracy of the improved yolov5 algorithm reached 92.6%, and mAP_0.5 reached 95.4%. Finally, the seedling verification test was carried out with tomato seedlings of about 40 days old. The test results show that the damage rate of the device is 7.2%, and the success rate is not less than 90.3%. This study can provide a reference for research into automatic transplanting machines.
