TL;DR: Landmines pose a persistent threat and hinder development in over 70 war-affected countries. Humanitarian demining aims to clear contaminated areas, but progress is slow: at the current pace, it will take 1,100 years to fully demine the planet. In close collaboration with the UN and local NGOs, we co-develop an interpretable predictive tool for landmine contamination to identify hazardous clusters under geographic and budget constraints, experimentally reducing false alarms and clearance time by half. The system is being tested…
