A Rapid Method to Rank Sound Sources in a Reverberant Environment.
Article in Sensors (Basel, Switzerland), 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Sound generated by an engine is one of the major contributors to an automobile's overall sound pressure level (SPL). During its development, the engine's SPL is monitored frequently for compliance. If the SPL is found to be exceeded, sources are identified for modification. As the timeline is critical, a rapid methodology is required to reduce it. The proposed methodology employs dynamic mode decomposition (DMD), a data-driven approach for source ranking. DMD detects changes in a variable between two successive time intervals and quantifies its rate of change. Based on the physics involved, a new interpretation for DMD's decay factor is introduced to capture the sound signal's nature. DMD and Short-Time Fourier Transform (STFT) are compared in this study. The STFT-based systems employ a large array of microphones to rank the sources. In this study, a single microphone and DMD are used to rank the sources. DMD utilizes far less data than the conventional STFT for source identification and ranking. Though DMD requires more memory and time than STFT, the overall time to complete the ranking of sources is very short. The results are compared with calculated values and show a negligible discrepancy between them.
