Research in machine learning, mobile robotics, and autonomous driving is accelerated by the availability of high quality annotated data. To this end, we release Audi Autonomous Driving Dataset (A2D2). Our dataset consists simultaneously recorded images 3D point clouds, together with bounding boxes, semantic segmentation, instance data extracted from automotive bus. sensor suite six cameras five LiDAR units, providing full 360 degree coverage. The time synchronized mutually registered....
Abstract There is reason to believe that environmental policy convergence resulting from diffusion influenced not only by functional imperatives of the world market, but also a collective behaviour national governments, where pioneer countries function as (intellectual) leaders under conditions uncertainty. Their solutions for general problems are adopted other countries. As rule, there one single solution preferred large group or majority This regulatory ‘conformism’ makes roles highly...
The article discusses the role of nation state in stimulating lead markets for green innovations. It is often feared that loses its capacity action because economic and political globalization. This rejects this hypothesis. argues empirical research on actual environmental policies reveals it most states pioneer new approaches, push advances policy, serve as regional starting points ‘green’ technologies. innovation diffusion technologies their support through national bear potential a...
Abstract Multi‐level global governance was introduced at the United Nations summit in Rio 1992 as a new model to achieve broad mobilization of different actors sustainable development. This has been extended climate governance. It become system with its own inherent logic, dynamics and stabilization mechanisms. article deals systemic dimension (the architecture) multi‐level across levels sectors. refers practical implementation levels. The text poses four hypotheses: (1) can be regarded...
Green technologies display unusually strong growth and are well on the way to establishing a 'mega-trend' in technology development. To exploit associated economic opportunities, many industrialised countries have started follow an innovation-oriented approach environmental policy. Against this background, ways examined which policy can effectively 'govern' technological change secure improvements. What is needed clear focus prioritising ecological effectiveness of innovations, devising...
Abstract This article explains the relatively successful performance of European Union (EU) in climate and energy governance by two factors: (1) multi‐level reinforcement (2) mobilization economic interests at different levels through low‐carbon industrial policy. The adds to literature further developing existing arguments on We stress point that co‐benefits protection have been successfully mobilized all governance, including sub‐national level, recent times. is illustrated examples from...
The important role that climate leaders and leadership play at different levels of the European Union (EU) multilevel governance system is exemplified. Initially, leader states set pace with ambitious policy measures were adopted largely on an ad hoc basis. Since mid-1980s, EU has developed a facilitated lesson-drawing all including local level. become global by example although it had been up as 'leaderless Europe'. resulting 'leadership without leader' paradox cannot be sufficiently...
While the first part of article focuses on possible advantages strategic and integrative planning in environmental policy, second looks at existing national approaches OECD countries, underlining important differences similarities, attempting a preliminary evaluation three policy plans. On this empirical basis represents an attempt to systematise draft model stages planning.
