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

We numerically demonstrate that introducing XY-spin dynamics enabled by phase-insensitive optical parametric gain enhances the performance of coherent Ising machines (CIMs). Whereas conventional CIMs based on phase-sensitive optical parametric gain confine spins to two discrete Ising states, nondegenerate optical parametric oscillators with phase-insensitive gain support continuous-phase XY spins, facilitating spin flips that enable the system to escape local minima. Benchmarking on Wishart-planted problem instances shows that gradually transitioning from XY to Ising spins reduces the time-to-solution by roughly an order of magnitude relative to purely Ising-based dynamics. Furthermore, tailoring the transitions between XY-like and Ising-like regimes yields additional improvements beyond a simple unidirectional XY-to-Ising transition. Our results establish a new framework for engineering CIM dynamics in full phase-quadrature space and point toward fully optical architectures for efficient combinatorial optimization.
