Native Binary-Weight Training Outperforms Zero-Shot Sign Projection in MNIST Diffusion

Does severe failure after projecting a diffusion model to one-bit weights show that its binary representation is unusable? We test that implication, rather than propose a new quantizer, in a small MNIST residual U-Net. We compare floating-point training, zero-shot per-channel sig...

Nutrient Recovery from Food Waste–Derived Anaerobic Digestate Using Dual-Chamber Microbial Fuel Cell: A Technoeconomic Assessment

Abstract Anaerobic digestate obtained from a digester operated on food waste was further treated in a dual-chamber microbial fuel cell (D-MFC) for nutrient recovery. Digestate was fed to the D-MFC at different dilutions [chemical oxygen demand (COD): 1,000–5,000 mg/L] in fed-batc...
