Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This chapter analyses overall efforts made thus far to estimate food loss in Canada and identifies the data availability and accessibility issues that surround the measurement and reporting of food loss in the country. It also examines Canada’s efforts and initiatives in establishing scientifically acceptable methods for measuring food loss at different levels. In Canada, private efforts to estimate the magnitude of Food Loss and Waste (FLW) began in 2010 when Value Chain Management International published a report titled “Food Waste in Canada: Opportunities to Increase the Competitiveness of Canada’s Agri-food Sector, While Simultaneously Improving the Environment.” Statistics Canada produces some data sources and works on maintaining some resources that can be used for FLW analysis. Statistics Canada produces the “Food Available in Canada” data series using a variety of sources such as surveys, questionnaires, and other statistical information to estimate food availability per person and food availability per person adjusted for losses on an annual basis.

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.
