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 advancements in Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), combined with the growing adoption of farm-applicable Internet of Things (IoT) devices, have expanded the application of precision agriculture in mango orchards. The Smart Mango Orchard can play a crucial role in ensuring mango trees thrive and produce high-quality fruit. However, state-of-the-art (SOTA) CNNs are built on numerous layers and many parameters; therefore, they are challenging to deploy in IoT devices. However, the lightweight CNN is a possible solution. This study developed a lightweight CNN, mangoNet, to deploy in an innovative mango orchard environment. The mangoNet is expected to monitor the mango leaf images and report them to farmers via a mobile app using the IoT system. The study was conducted using the primary dataset collected from the mango gardens in Rajshahi, Bangladesh. The mangoNet benchmark was evaluated using six SOTA CNNs. The mangoNet, with only 3,987,400 Parameters, outperforms SOTA CNNs' accuracy (99.61%). In addition, this study employed SHAP, LIME, and Grad-CAM visualizations to identify and depict the image regions that contribute to mangoNet's decision-making process. The mangoNet is integrated into a Streamlit web application and an Android mobile app, as researchers suggest for the practical use of CNNs. The novelty of mangoNet lies in its balanced sequential architecture, with a careful selection of kernels and progressive filter expansion, enabling early layers to capture low-level features and deeper layers to extract high-level features. As a result, the proposed mangoNet achieved high accuracy while requiring fewer computational resources and reduced training time. In addition, the mangoNet-powered website and mobile application empower both farmers and farming stakeholders by making real-time disease detection. In the future, the prototype is expected to be commercialized as Bangladesh is the 8
