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 proposes an optimization strategy for a tail-sitter unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) landing on an autonomous surface vessel (ASV), aiming for minimal risk, shortest time, and lowest energy consumption. Sliding mode control ensures system stability under nonlinear and dynamic conditions. A two-player game model between the UAV and ASV is established, achieving Nash equilibrium to minimize risk and energy. Pareto optimal theory provides a trade-off among multiple objectives, while Karush-Kuhn-Tucker conditions verify the optimality of the solution. An Actor-Critic network generates and evaluates landing strategies through adaptive online learning based on temporal difference errors. Results show that the UAV can dynamically adjust to ship motion, achieving precise, energy-efficient, and low-risk landings. This approach offers practical technical support and theoretical foundations for cooperative operations between UAVs and unmanned ships in diverse environments.
