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

The calibration of mobile manipulators requires accurate estimation of both the transformations provided by the localization system and the transformations between sensors and the motion coordinate system. Current works offer limited flexibility when dealing with mobile robotic systems with many different sensor modalities. In this work, we propose a calibration approach that simultaneously estimates these transformations, enabling precise calibration even when the localization system is imprecise. This approach is integrated into Atomic Transformations Optimization Method (ATOM), a versatile calibration framework designed for multi-sensor, multi-modal robotic systems. By formulating calibration as an extended optimization problem, ATOM estimates both sensor poses and calibration pattern positions. The proposed methodology is validated through simulations and real-world case studies, demonstrating its effectiveness in improving calibration accuracy for mobile manipulators equipped with diverse sensor modalities.
