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 aim of this review was to present selected machine learning (ML) algorithms used in dairy cattle farming in recent years (2020-2024). A description of ML methods (linear and logistic regression, classification and regression trees, chi-squared automatic interaction detection, random forest, AdaBoost, support vector machines, k-nearest neighbors, naive Bayes classifier, multivariate adaptive regression splines, artificial neural networks, including deep neural networks and convolutional neural networks, as well as Gaussian mixture models and cluster analysis), with some examples of their application in various aspects of dairy cattle breeding and husbandry, is provided. In addition, the stages of model construction and implementation, as well as the performance indicators for regression and classification models, are described. Finally, time trends in the popularity of ML methods in dairy cattle farming are briefly discussed.
