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

Tomato, as the vegetable queen, is cultivated worldwide due to its rich nutrient content and unique flavor. Nondestructive technology provides efficient and noninvasive solutions for the quality assessment of tomatoes. However, processing the substantial datasets to achieve a robust model and enhance detection performance for nondestructive technology is a great challenge until deep learning is developed. The aim of this paper is to provide a systematical overview of the principles and application for three categories of nondestructive detection techniques based on mechanical characterization, electromagnetic characterization, as well as electrochemical sensors. Tomato quality assessment is analyzed, and the characteristics of different nondestructive techniques are compared. Various data analysis methods based on deep learning are explored and the applications in tomato assessment using nondestructive techniques with deep learning are also summarized. Limitations and future expectations for the quality assessment of the tomato industry by nondestructive techniques along with deep learning are discussed. The ongoing advancements in optical equipment and deep learning methods lead to a promising outlook for the application in the tomato industry and agricultural engineering.
