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

Real-time detection of fresh corn ear height can provide a basis for dynamic adjustment of harvester header parameters, reducing mechanical damage and improving harvest quality. This study proposes a corn ear height detection model (CEHD). A YOLO-HAMDF network is developed for ear recognition, in which the core modules-TBDA, GLSA, and AQE-respectively suppress background interference, enhance contextual perception, and optimize bounding-box scoring. Depth information is incorporated to filter non-target regions and improve system robustness. In addition, a DI-DeepSORT module is designed for ear tracking, where DBC-Net and IDA-Kalman, respectively, enhance the discriminability of ReID features and enable independent-dimension adaptive noise modeling with smoothed positional updates. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed CEHD model achieves a mean absolute error (MAE) of only 3.21 ± 0.05 cm under field conditions, indicating strong stability and practical applicability. In summary, this study presents a stable and reliable corn ear height detection system, achieves real-time monitoring of ear height, and provides data support for the dynamic adjustment of header parameters in fresh corn harvesters.
