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

Learning global structures, i.e. topological properties, inherent in complex data is an essential yet challenging task that spans across various scientific and engineering disciplines. A fundamental approach is to extract local data representations and use them to assemble the global structure. This conjunction of local and global operations catalyzes the integration of tools from algebraic and computational topology with machine learning. In this article, we propose a hierarchical simplicial manifold learning algorithm, constituted by nested clustering and topological reduction, for constructing simplicial complexes and decoding their topological properties. We show that the learned complex possesses the same topology as the original embedding manifold from which the data were sampled. We demonstrate applicability, convergence, and computational efficiency of the algorithm on both synthetic and real-world data.
