Abstract: An example computer-implemented method includes receiving agricultural data records comprising a first set of yield properties for a first set of seeds grown in a first set of environments, and receiving genetic feature data related to a second set of seeds. The method further includes generating a second set of yield properties for the second set of seeds associated with a second set of environments by applying a model using the genetic feature data and the agricultural data records. In addition, the method includes determining predicted yield performance for a third set of seeds associated with one or more target environments by applying the second set of yield properties, and generating seed recommendations for the one or more target environments based on the predicted yield performance for the third set of seeds. In the present example, the method also includes causing display of the seed recommendations.

Abstract: Systems and methods for utilizing a spatial statistical model to maximize efficacy in performing trials on agronomic fields are disclosed herein. In an embodiment, a system receives first yield data for a first portion of an agronomic field, the first portion of the agronomic field having received a first treatment, and second yield data, for a second portion of the agronomic field, the second portion of the agronomic field having received a second treatment that is different than the first treatment. The system uses a spatial statistical model and the first yield data to compute a yield value for the second portion of the agronomic field, the yield value indicating an agronomic yield for the second portion of the agronomic field if the second portion of the agronomic field had received the first treatment instead of the second treatment. Based on the computed yield value and the second yield data, the system selects the second treatment.

Abstract: Data networking may include forwarding, via a client device, data across a first communication network to a virtual private network (VPN) server, wherein the data is destined for a remote server, forwarding a request sent outside the VPN server, via the client device, to access a second communication network detected by the client device, receiving, via the client device, a captive portal requiring authentication information, forwarding, via the client device, the authentication information to an authentication server to obtain access to the second communication network, wherein the authentication information is not forwarded to the VPN server, and forwarding and receiving additional data, via the client device, to the VPN server concurrently across the first communication network and the second communication network.

Abstract: A VPN is established between a client and a remote server. Data is partitioned into a plurality of packets. The packets are encrypted and scheduled for transmission over a cellular and a Wi-Fi connection. Scheduling of the packets is dynamically adjusted. Addresses of the encrypted packets are translated to match network addresses of respective physical interfaces. Packets are transmitted from the client to the server based on the scheduling. A packet that is transmitted on one of the connections and is subsequently lost is subsequently transmitted on the other connection.
