Abstract: Implementations are described herein for leveraging an agricultural knowledge graph to generate messages automatically. In various implementations, an agricultural event may trigger proactive performance of one or more of the following operations. Nodes of the agricultural knowledge graph may be identified as related to the agricultural event, including field node(s) representing subject agricultural field(s) to which the agricultural event is relevant and other node(s) connected to one or more of the field nodes by edge(s).

Data relevant to the subject agricultural field(s) may be retrieved from data source(s) controlled by an agricultural entity and processed based on the machine learning model(s) to generate inference(s) about the subject agricultural field(s).

Abstract: Implementations are disclosed for selectively operating edge-based sensors and/or computational resources under circumstances dictated by observation of targeted plant trait(s) to generate targeted agricultural inferences. In various implementations, triage data may be acquired at a first level of detail from a sensor of an edge computing node carried through an agricultural field. The triage data may be locally processed at the edge using machine learning model(s) to detect targeted plant trait(s) exhibited by plant(s) in the field. Based on the detected plant trait(s), a region of interest (ROI) may be established in the field. Targeted inference data may be acquired at a second, greater level of detail from the sensor while the sensor is carried through the ROI. The targeted inference data may be locally processed at the edge using one or more of the machine learning models to make a targeted inference about plants within the ROI.

Abstract: Implementations relate to crop yield prediction at the field- and pixel-level. In various implementations, a first temporal sequence of high-elevation digital images may be obtained that capture a first geographic area and are acquired over a first predetermined time interval while the first geographic area includes a particular crop. A first plurality of other data points may also be obtained that influence a ground truth crop yield of the first geographic area after the first predetermined time interval. The first plurality of other data points may be grouped into temporal chunks corresponding temporally with respective images of the first temporal sequence. The first temporal sequence and the temporal chunks of the first plurality of other data points may be applied, e.g., iteratively, as input across a machine learning model to estimate a crop yield of the first geographic area at the end of the first predetermined time interval.

Abstract: Implementations are described herein for auditing performance of large-scale tasks. In various implementations, one or more ground-level vision sensors may capture a first set of one or more images that depict an agricultural plot prior to an agricultural task being performed in the agricultural plot, and a second set of one or more images that depict the agricultural plot subsequent to the agricultural task being performed in the agricultural plot. The first and second sets of images may be processed in situ using edge computing device(s) based on a machine learning model to generate respective pluralities of pre-task and post-task inferences about the agricultural plot. Performance of the agricultural task may include comparing the pre-task inferences to the post-task inferences to generate operational metric(s) about the performance of the agricultural task in the agricultural plot. The operational metric(s) may be presented at one or more output devices.

Abstract: Implementations relate to diagnosis of crop yield predictions and/or crop yields at the field- and pixel-level. In various implementations, a first temporal sequence of high-elevation digital images may be obtained that captures a geographic area over a given time interval through a crop cycle of a first type of crop.

Based on these data, a ground truth-based crop yield prediction may be generated for the first geographic area at the crop cycle's end. Recommended operational change(s) may be identified based on distinct hypothetical crop yield prediction(s) for the first geographic area. Each distinct hypothetical crop yield prediction may be generated based on hypothetical operational data that includes altered data point(s) of the ground truth operational data.

Image data may be processed using the candidate MT-DP architecture(s) to determine performance metrics. These performance metrics may be used to jointly train the MT-DP architecture(s) and/or the NAS.

Based on the estimated distance, the count of visible plant-parts-of-interest may be normalized with another count of visible plant-parts-of-interest determined from one or more digital images capturing a second plant.

Abstract: Implementations set forth herein relate to utilizing S2 cell values to characterize arbitrary portions of land parcels and storing the S2 cell values in association with a non-fungible token (NFT) that is stored on a blockchain network, or other peer-to-peer (P2P) network. The S2 cell values can be generated by iteratively using bounding shapes that are selected to extend over at least a portion of a respective parcel of land, and each bounding shape can be represented by one or more single dimensional values. When a generated bounding shape extends outside of a boundary of a parcel of land, subcells of the bounding shape can be generated to define further bounding shapes. A land NFT for the list of cell values for the bounding shapes can be stored at a blockchain address for an authenticated owner of the parcel of land.

Using one or more phenotypic machine learning models, phenotypic prediction(s) may be generated about the agricultural plot based on the one or more semantic embeddings and additional structured data about the agricultural plot. Output may be provided at one or more computing devices that is based on one or more of the phenotypic predictions.
