Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract More than 10 million people living in India face health risks from arsenic-contaminated groundwater. Arsenic originated naturally in the earth's crust in the Himalayan region and was deposited in aquifers for thousands of years. Arsenic exposure is taking place due to intensive use of groundwater in irrigation and household use (drinking and cooking). Although a better understanding of the problem has been arrived at, and a vast knowledge database is available, there has been no systematic effort to address the wider problem or to adopt truly equitable solutions. The author conducted the study in some arsenic-affected villages in West Bengal, the most severely affected state in India, and analyzed the existing research and policy documents in order to examine the extent of the suffering of the people and to explore the possible sustainable solutions appropriate in the local context. The study has established the role of socioeconomic disparities, governance, policy, and their complex relationships in the incidence, magnitude and consequences of chronic arsenicosis.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
