Evaluating the swimming technique analysis: a multi-criteria decision approach using hesitant bipolar fuzzy with a GRA approach.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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
Modern technology has played a significant role in improving the analysis and training of swimming, providing more accurate results. Also, finding the best swimming technique is still complicated because there are conflicting standards and uncertainty among experts. This study builds a decision framework using hesitant bipolar fuzzy sets (HBFS) and the grey relational analysis (GRA) method to deal with expert hesitations and bipolar opinions. Freestyle, breaststroke, butterfly, backstroke, and sidestroke are tested against what they accomplish in terms of speed, energy they use, how smooth they look during execution, and the efficiency of their breathing. Based on the HBFS-GRA approach, the experts considered the butterfly stroke the most suitable technique. The new process increases objectivity and makes decisions in sports science less vague. This study also recognizes some challenges, including using experts' subjective opinions, missing data, and the need to regularly update the analysis due to the quick development of sports technologies. In the future, the system could be enhanced by including data from wearable devices and discussion with artificial intelligence, as well as by adapting it to cover different sports disciplines. This research promotes using data and well-structured models to assess athlete performance.
