Snake-inspired mobile robot positioning with hybrid learning.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
Mobile robots are used in various fields, from deliveries to search and rescue applications. Different types of sensors are mounted on the robot to provide accurate navigation and, thus, allow successful completion of its task. In real-world scenarios, due to environmental constraints, the robot frequently relies only on its inertial sensors. Therefore, due to noises and other error terms associated with the inertial readings, the navigation solution drifts in time. To mitigate the inertial solution drift, we propose the MoRPINet framework consisting of a neural network to regress the robot's travelled distance. To this end, we require the mobile robot to maneuver in a snake-like slithering motion to encourage nonlinear behavior. MoRPINet was evaluated using a dataset of 290 minutes of inertial recordings during field experiments and showed an improvement of 33% in the positioning error over other state-of-the-art methods for pure inertial navigation.
