ESO: An evolutionary algorithm for efficient model reduction via automated frequency band selection in passive acoustic monitoring

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) is an important tool for wildlife monitoring. Deep learning, particularly convolutional neural networks (CNNs), has become the standard approach for developing bioacoustic classifiers. However, real‐time classification remains challenging due to the high computational complexity of these models and the need ...

Genomic Assessment of Reintroduced African Wild Dogs Informs Conservation Translocations

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
Few reintroduction and translocation programs incorporate genomic assessments into management planning, despite ongoing debate over how founder individuals should be selected. Here, we assess the genomic composition of reintroduced African wild dog (Lycaon pictus) populations in private reserves in South Africa, comparing them with a free‐roaming ...

Discrepancies between self‐reported alcohol use and breathalyzer results and factors associated with blood alcohol concentration positivity among road traffic injury patients in Cameroon

Addiction, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and aims In low‐resource settings such as Cameroon, blood alcohol concentration (BAC) testing is rarely available for road traffic injury (RTI) patients, necessitating confidence in self‐reported alcohol use for screening purposes. While Western settings often rely on objective measures like BAC for identifying alcohol‐related RTIs,

Rural land rental markets in developing countries: Can survey design innovations improve land market participation statistics?

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract A longstanding puzzle in the African land rental market literature is the often‐observed discrepancy between the number of tenants (renters‐in) and the much smaller number of landlords (renters‐out) in survey data. If this discrepancy derives from systematic biases in survey data responses on rental market participation, then the existing body

Seeing like a citizen: Experimental evidence on how empowerment affects engagement with the state

American Journal of Political Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Building a strong and effective state requires revenue. Yet, in many low‐income countries, citizens do not make formal payments to the state or forego engaging with the state altogether due to vulnerability to opportunistic demands by state agents. We study two randomized interventions in Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of the Congo, designed to
