Integrated Feature-Temporal GAN for Imbalanced Transaction Fraud Detection by Yicen Zheng, Yu Xie, Jiamin Yao

“…IFT-GAN introduces two key innovations: 1) A Feature-Aware Sample Selection (FASS) module that employs Fisher score-based feature ranking and weighted k-means clustering to create a balanced subset enriched with discriminative fraud signatures; and 2) A Temporal Dependency GAN (TD-GAN) architecture employing a novel Time-aware Gated Recurrent Unit (TaGRU) in both the generator and discriminator, explicitly modeling the temporal intervals between transactions through adaptive temporal gating. …”

Using confidence, decision time, and confidence entropy to predict accuracy for online and real eyewitnesses by Adele Quigley-McBride, Rachel Leigh Greenspan

“…Confidence was measured in three ways: human-coded verbal statements, AI-classified verbal statements, and numeric ratings. We compared the correspondence between these confidence metrics, how multiple reflector variables relate to accuracy, and whether these patterns differ across two datasets. …”

Perceptions of canned wine drinkers in outdoor leisure settings: a vignette study with swiss residents by Nicolas Depetris Chauvin, Antoine Pinède, Heber Rodrigues

“…Our findings reveal that, overall, canned wine drinkers are judged negatively, particularly in the beach resort scenario, where traits like “health consciousness” and “environmental friendliness” are rated lower. Demographic factors, including age, gender, and education, as well as cultural background, significantly influence these judgements. …”

From Margin to Mainstream: Informal Street Vendors and Local Politics in Kolkata, India by Tathagata Chatterji, Souvanic Roy

“…A new, fragmented spatial structure has started emerging, with the middle classes and the globalizing segments of the economy, moving away to gated enclaves at the urban fringe. These changes are not isolated phenomenon, but rather symptomatic with the larger process of urban transformation and entwined with the political-economic change in the state level.…”

“…To enable a better understanding of contextual factors towards increasing uptake, we piloted a Decentralized Immunization Monitoring (DIM) approach in the Kumbotso local government area (LGA) of Kano state, Nigeria, to identify wards with low vaccination rates and understand why this is happening. The findings were used to improve routine immunization (RI) programs and reduce the number of unvaccinated children and children yet to receive their first dose of diphtheria–pertussis–tetanus (DPT) vaccine, referred to as Zero-Dose children (ZD). …”
