  • Publication number: 20240074349
    Abstract: A system for an agricultural harvester can include one or more processors and one or more non-transitory computer-readable media. The one or more non-transitory computer-readable media collectively store a machine-learned model configured to receive data associated with one or more harvest-related conditions for an agricultural harvester and process the data to determine a first harvest-related parameter associated with an infeed volume of harvest material for the agricultural harvester and instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, configure the computing system to perform operations. The operations can include obtaining the data associated with one or more harvest-related conditions, inputting the data into the machine-learned model, and receiving a first value for the harvest-related parameter as a first output of the machine-learned model.

  • Publication number: 20240065157
    Abstract: A system for an agricultural harvester includes a chopper assembly configured to separate a harvested material into debris and stalk. A primary extractor is configured to remove debris from the harvester. A sensor system is configured to capture data associated with harvested material conditions downstream of the primary extractor. A computing system includes one or more processors and one or more non-transitory computer-readable media that collectively store instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, configure the computing system to perform operations. The operations include obtaining the data associated with the associated harvested material conditions downstream of the primary extractor, determining a current foliage ratio based on the data, determining an error between the current foliage ratio to a desired foliage ratio, and generating a harvest-related parameter of the primary extractor based at least in part on the error.

  • Publication number: 20230385552
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media for responding to a query using a neural network and natural language processing. If necessary, the system can request disambiguation, then parse the query using a trained machine-learning classifier, resulting in at least one of an identified subject or an identified domain of the text query. The system can determine if the user is authorized to retrieve answers to the query and, if so, retrieve factual data associated with the query. The system can then retrieve a response template, and fill in the template with the retrieved facts. The system can then determine, by executing a machine comprehension model on the filled response template, a probable readability token, portion of text, of at least a portion of the filled response template and, upon identifying that the probable readability is above a threshold, reply to the text query with the at least a portion of the filled response template.
