Ecoefficiency Analysis and Regression in Data Conversion for Spiking Neural Network Training
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.The environmental footprint of spiking neural networks is quantified during dataset encoding and training for autonomous driving regression across three benchmarks. Temporal depth emerges as the dominant driver of energy consumption and CO2 emissions, while the accuracy–energy trade‐off proves dataset‐dependent. On conventional hardware, spiking models

Income sharing for common pool resources with uncertain productivity
American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.Abstract We address the interconnected issues of externalities in the use of a natural common‐pool resource system and adverse effects of environmental uncertainty on risk‐averse resource users. We set up a simple analytical model and derive conditions such that insurance by means of an income sharing mechanism mitigates externalities and hence ...
