BREEDS benchmarks assess model robustness to subpopulation shifts.
A neural collaborative filtering method predicts corn hybrid yield performance.
In plant and animal breeding studies a distinction is made between the genetic value (additive + epistatic genetic effects) and the breeding value (additive genetic effects) of an individual since it is expected that some of the epistatic genetic effects will be lost due to recombination. In this paper, we argue that t…

New algorithm improves plant breeding by clustering soybean genotypes more accurately and efficiently.
New PCA method for derivatives problems.
As the amount and complexity of genetic information increases it is necessary that we explore some efficient ways of handling these data. This study takes the "divide and conquer" approach for analyzing high dimensional genomic data. Our aims include reducing the dimensionality of the problem that has to be dealt one a…
Interpretation of a machine learning induced models is critical for feature engineering, debugging, and, arguably, compliance. Yet, best of breed machine learning models tend to be very complex. This paper presents a method for model interpretation which has the main benefit that the simple interpretations it provides …
We consider a Nash equilibrium between two high-frequency traders in a simple market impact model with transient price impact and additional quadratic transaction costs. Extending a result by Schöneborn (2008), we prove existence and uniqueness of the Nash equilibrium and show that for small transaction costs the high-…
Bayesian framework improves variance component estimation in MET data.

A method to control results of gradient descent unsupervised learning in a deep neural network by using evolutionary algorithm is proposed. To process crossover of unsupervisedly trained models, the algorithm evaluates pointwise fitness of individual nodes in neural network. Labeled training data is randomly sampled an…
ACL improves DRL by adapting task difficulty to agent's capabilities.
Deep learning predicts crop prices with improved accuracy.
There is a growing interest in learning data representations that work well for many different types of problems and data. In this paper, we look in particular at the task of learning a single visual representation that can be successfully utilized in the analysis of very different types of images, from dog breeds to s…
A looming question that must be solved before robotic plant phenotyping capabilities can have significant impact to crop improvement programs is scalability. High Throughput Phenotyping (HTP) uses robotic technologies to analyze crops in order to determine species with favorable traits, however, the current practices r…
Reweighting training data to better represent new tasks.
A genetic algorithm improves multivariate kernel density estimation.
Rewards are sparse in the real world and most of today's reinforcement learning algorithms struggle with such sparsity. One solution to this problem is to allow the agent to create rewards for itself - thus making rewards dense and more suitable for learning. In particular, inspired by curious behaviour in animals, obs…
In dialogues, an utterance is a chain of consecutive sentences produced by one speaker which ranges from a short sentence to a thousand-word post. When studying dialogues at the utterance level, it is not uncommon that an utterance would serve multiple functions. For instance, "Thank you. It works great." expresses bot…
FDPs generalize diffusion models to function spaces, enabling efficient image generation.
A grand challenge in machine learning is the development of computational algorithms that match or outperform humans in perceptual inference tasks that are complicated by nuisance variation. For instance, visual object recognition involves the unknown object position, orientation, and scale in object recognition while …
Combining self-training and contrastive learning improves performance under distribution shift.
Prior work finds a diversity paradox: diversity breeds innovation, and yet, underrepresented groups that diversify organizations have less successful careers within them. Does the diversity paradox hold for scientists as well? We study this by utilizing a near-population of ~1.2 million US doctoral recipients from 1977…
Understanding the adaptation process of plants to drought stress is essential in improving management practices, breeding strategies as well as engineering viable crops for a sustainable agriculture in the coming decades. Hyper-spectral imaging provides a particularly promising approach to gain such understanding since…

DeepInversion generates images from trained networks without additional data.
With the advent of large labelled datasets and high-capacity models, the performance of machine vision systems has been improving rapidly. However, the technology has still major limitations, starting from the fact that different vision problems are still solved by different models, trained from scratch or fine-tuned o…

ATC predicts target domain accuracy using only labeled and unlabeled data.
First European crop map created using satellite data.
Failing to distinguish between a sheepdog and a skyscraper should be worse and penalized more than failing to distinguish between a sheepdog and a poodle; after all, sheepdogs and poodles are both breeds of dogs. However, existing metrics of failure (so-called "loss" or "win") used in textual or visual classification/r…
