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 von Neumann bottleneck has led to a substantial rise in energy consumption of computing hardware and memory systems, particularly for data-intensive tasks like signal processing. Memristor-based in-memory computing offers an efficient alternative by performing computations within analog memory. Here, we demonstrate real-time signal processing using a fused network that combines the real-time discrete Fourier transform (DFT) and convolutional neural network (CNN) on a memristor-based analog system on a chip (SoC). A 128-by-128 memristor crossbar array performs the DFT on audio signals with a peak signal-to-noise ratio of 33.49 dB, while the following CNN classifies the resulting spectrograms with 94.72% accuracy on the AudioMNIST dataset. In addition, convolution-based edge detection is applied to real-time video frames. The SoC offers substantial energy efficiency improvement over traditional digital systems in signal processing tasks. This work highlights the potential of memristor-based SoCs for efficient real-time signal processing.
