Resource‐Aware Contrastive Scattering Meta‐Learning for Efficient Few‐Shot Acoustic Anomaly Detection

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This paper introduces a resource‐aware Contrastive Scattering Meta‐Learning (CSML) framework for acoustic anomaly detection. By leveraging training‐free wavelet scattering and metric‐based meta‐learning, the model achieves competitive performance with only 50 K learnable parameters—a 98% reduction compared to state‐of‐the‐art frameworks—enabling ...

Redistributive land reforms, agricultural productivity, and structural change: New cross‐national evidence

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Large‐scale land reforms constitute a substantial redistribution of wealth and reallocation of agricultural land, which is a major form of asset and production input in developing countries. While land redistribution (from the rich to the poor) remains a highly controversial issue, extensive evidence on its effect is limited.

The Homozygous p.(Arg215Ter) Variant in XRCC2 Is Associated With Atypical Fanconi Anemia Without Major Hematological Abnormalities in Childhood

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fanconi Anemia (FA) is the most frequent inherited bone marrow failure syndrome. A role for the XRCC2 gene in FA was suspected in 2012 and confirmed in 2016, but only two affected individuals have been described thus far, and no long‐term follow‐up is available.
