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

Conventional vision-based sensors face limitations such as low update rates, restricted applicability, and insufficient robustness in dynamic environments with complex object motions. Single-pixel tracking systems offer high efficiency and minimal data redundancy by directly acquiring target positions without full-image reconstruction. This paper proposes a single-pixel detection system for adaptive multi-target tracking based on the geometric moment and the exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA). The proposed system leverages geometric moments for high-speed target localization, requiring merely 3N measurements to resolve centroids for N targets. Furthermore, the output values of the system are used to continuously update the weight parameters, enabling adaptation to varying motion patterns and ensuring consistent tracking stability. Experimental validation using a digital micromirror device (DMD) operating at 17.857 kHz demonstrates a theoretical tracking update rate of 1984 Hz for three objects. Quantitative evaluations under 1920 × 1080 pixel resolution reveal a normalized root mean square error (NRMSE) of 0.00785, confirming the method's capability for robust multi-target tracking in practical applications.
