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

This study developed a Python-based framework to predict the ultimate bearing capacity of shallow foundations on cohesionless soil, employing machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) techniques. Utilizing a comprehensive dataset of 116 footing experiments, Eleven ML models (Gaussian Process Regression (GPR), Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost), Gradient Boosting Machine (GBM), Random Forest (RF), Categorical Boosting (CatBoost) etc.) and five DL models (Artificial Neural Network (ANN), Deep Neural Network (DNN), etc.) trained and compared against traditional methods. Input parameters included foundation dimensions and soil properties. Results demonstrated that ML and DL models significantly outperformed traditional equations, achieving higher accuracy. Ensemble methods like GPR, XGBoost, GBM, RF, and CatBoost exhibited superior performance, with a Coefficient of Determination (R
