    Abstract: Implementations relate to detecting/replacing transient obstructions from high-elevation digital images. A digital image of a geographic area includes pixels that align spatially with respective geographic units of the geographic area. Analysis of the digital image may uncover obscured pixel(s) that align spatially with geographic unit(s) of the geographic area that are obscured by transient obstruction(s). Domain fingerprint(s) of the obscured geographic unit(s) may be determined across pixels of a corpus of digital images that align spatially with the one or more obscured geographic units. Unobscured pixel(s) of the same/different digital image may be identified that align spatially with unobscured geographic unit(s) of the geographic area. The unobscured geographic unit(s) also may have domain fingerprint(s) that match the domain fingerprint(s) of the obscured geographic unit(s). Replacement pixel data may be calculated based on the unobscured pixels and used to generate a transient-obstruction-free version of the digital image.

    Abstract: Some implementations herein relate to a graphical user interface (GUI) that facilitates dynamically partitioning agricultural fields into clusters on an individual agricultural field-basis using agricultural features. A map of a geographic area containing a plurality of agricultural fields may be rendered as part of a GUI. The agricultural fields may be partitioned into a first set of clusters based on a first granularity value and agricultural features of individual agricultural fields. The individual agricultural fields may be visually annotated in the GUI to convey the first set of clusters of similar agricultural fields. Upon receipt of a second granularity value different from the first granularity value, the agricultural fields may be partitioned into a second set of clusters of similar agricultural fields. The map of the geographic area may be updated so that individual agricultural fields are visually annotated to convey the second set of clusters.

    Abstract: Implementations are described herein for colorizing an X-ray image and predicting one or more phenotypic traits about a plant based on the colorized X-ray image. In various implementations, an X-ray image that depicts a plant with a canopy of the plant partially occluding a part-of-interest is obtained, where the part-of-interest is visible through the canopy in the X-ray image. The X-ray images is colorized to predict one or more phenotypic traits of the part-of-interest. The colorization includes processing the X-ray image based on a machine learning model to generate a colorized version of the X-ray image, and predicting the one or more phenotypic traits based on one or more visual features of the colorized version of the X-ray image.

    Abstract: Implementations are disclosed for automatic commissioning, configuring, calibrating, and/or coordinating sensor-equipped modular edge computing devices that are mountable on agricultural vehicles. In various implementations, neighbor modular edge computing device(s) that are mounted on a vehicle nearest a given modular edge computing device may be detected based on sensor signal(s) generated by contactless sensor(s) of the given modular edge computing device. Based on the detected neighbor modular edge computing device(s), an ordinal position of the given modular edge computing device may be determined relative to a plurality of modular edge computing devices mounted on the agricultural vehicle. Based on the sensor signal(s), distance(s) to the neighbor modular edge computing device(s) may be determined. Extrinsic parameters of the given modular edge computing device may be determined based on the ordinal position of the given modular edge computing device and the distance(s).

    Abstract: Implementations are described herein for automatically generating labeled synthetic images that are usable as training data for training machine learning models to make an agricultural prediction based on digital images. A method includes: generating a plurality of simulated images, each simulated image depicting one or more simulated instances of a plant; for each of the plurality of simulated images, labeling the simulated image with at least one ground truth label that identifies an attribute of the one or more simulated instances of the plant depicted in the simulated image, the attribute describing both a visible portion and an occluded portion of the one or more simulated instances of the plant depicted in the simulated image; and training a machine learning model to make an agricultural prediction using the labeled plurality of simulated images.

    Abstract: Implementations are described herein for coordinating semi-autonomous robots to perform agricultural tasks on a plurality of plants with minimal human intervention. In various implementations, a plurality of robots may be deployed to perform a respective plurality of agricultural tasks. Each agricultural task may be associated with a respective plant of a plurality of plants, and each plant may have been previously designated as a target for one of the agricultural tasks. It may be determined that a given robot has reached an individual plant associated with the respective agricultural task that was assigned to the given robot. Based at least in part on that determination, a manual control interface may be provided at output component(s) of a computing device in network communication with the given robot. The manual control interface may be operable to manually control the given robot to perform the respective agricultural task.
