Can neural networks learn to select an alternative based on a systematic aggregation of conflicting individual preferences (i.e. a 'voting rule')? And if so, which voting rule best describes their behavior? We show that a prominent neural network can be trained to respect two fundamental...

The adoption of wind energy has grown significantly in recent years. New, cost-effective technologies have been developed, led by customer awareness of green technologies and a legal framework proposed at the European Union level. The stochastic nature of wind speed is transferred to wind...

Building on an economic model of rational Bitcoin mining, we measured the carbon footprint of Bitcoin mining power consumption using feed-forward neural networks. We found associated carbon footprints of 2.77, 16.08 and 14.99 MtCO2e for 2017, 2018 and 2019 based on a novel bottom-up approach,...
