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

Recent advances in networked control systems have resulted in linear time-invariant (LTI) networks of increasing scale and complexity, thereby presenting significant challenges for controllability optimization. This study proposes a novel optimization framework to enhance control efficiency and reduce network complexity in large-scale complex networks, leveraging exact controllability theory and matrix similarity transformations for both directed and undirected topologies. Firstly, a method is introduced for identifying node correspondences before and after similarity transformations of the network's adjacency matrix. Subsequently, a minimal-edge connection framework is proposed to link Jordan blocks associated with distinct eigenvalues in the Jordan canonical form. Finally, building upon this method and framework, a specific optimization strategy is developed to minimize the number of inter-node connections while preserving network controllability. The proposed approach effectively simplifies the network structure and improves control efficiency.
