Abstract: Some embodiments relate to a control system sending for display a first user interface requesting user priority values for treatment metrics. The control system receives, as input from a user interacting with the first user interface, user priority values. The control system operates the farming machine according to the user priority values. Based on sensor data generated as the farming machine operates in the field, the control system determines actual values of the treatment metrics. The control system sends for display on the client device a second user interface including the actual values for the treatment metrics. The control system receives updated user priority values from the client device for the treatment metrics. The updated user priority values are received as input from the user interacting with the second user interface. The control system updates operation of the farming machine according to the updated user priority values.

Abstract: Embodiments relate to training a plant treatment model. A control system may provide images of plants for display to a user. The control system may receive one or more plant treatment action preferences of the user. The one or more plant treatment action preferences include labels for the images that identify plants in the images and treatment actions to be applied to the identified plants. The control system may train the plant treatment model based on the one or more plant treatment action preferences. The trained plant treatment model is configured to, when applied to an image of plants in a field, determine treatment actions to be applied to the plants in accordance with the one or more plant treatment action preferences of the user. The control system may configure a farming machine to operate based on the trained plant treatment model.

Abstract: Embodiments relate to selecting and utilizing a plant treatment model. A control system may provide images of plants of different dimensions and types for display to a user. The control system may generate one or more plant treatment action preferences of the user based on user interactions with the provided images of plants. The control system may apply trained plant treatment models to the images of plants, each plant treatment model identifying one or more plants in the images and one or more corresponding plant treatment actions. The control system may select a plant treatment model based on a comparison of (1) plants and corresponding plant treatment actions identified by the plant treatment models in the images and (2) the one or more plant treatment action preferences of the user. The control system may configure a farming machine to operate based on the selected plant treatment model.

Abstract: In a method of producing a layered composite, wherein at least one layer including cubic boron nitride is deposited on a substrate and, during the deposition, 3 to 15 at % oxygen is added for assuming the nitrogen locations of the cubic boron-nitride grating or intermediate grating locations, thereby providing for cubic boron nitride layers with a thickness of at least 2 ?m without the formation of cracks.
