<!-- <h5 class="text-center text-muted mt-2">This workshop is supported by NSF (U.S.A), USDA-NIFA (U.S.A), and JST (Japan)</h5> -->
<p class="mt-2">Today, efficient, cost-effective sensors as well as high performance computing technologies
are looking to transform traditional plant-based agriculture into an efficient cyber-physical system. The
easy availability of cheap, deployable, connected sensor technology has created an enormous opportunity to
collect vast amounts of data at varying spatial and temporal scales at both experimental and production
agriculture levels. Therefore, both offline and real-time agricultural analytics that assimilates such
heterogeneous data and provides automated, actionable information is a critical need for sustainable and
profitable agriculture.</p>
<p class="mb-3">Data analytics and decision-making for Agriculture has been a long-standing application area.
The application of advanced Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) methods to this critical
societal need can be viewed as a transformative extension for the agriculture community. In this workshop,
we intend to bring together academic and industrial researchers and practitioners in the fields of machine
learning, data science and engineering, plant sciences and agriculture, in the collaborative effort of
identifying and discussing major technical challenges and recent results related to machine learning-based
approaches. It will feature invited talks, oral/poster presentations of accepted papers, and an Ag-ML
competition. </p>

<h5 class="mt-4">Target Participants</h5>
<p class="mt-2">The theme of MLCAS 2024 will be "User-centric AI applications in Agriculture" to highlight
and discuss real life deployments of AI and ML-enabled tools for a variety of agricultural decision
support applications relevant for diverse stakeholders including farmers, plant breeders and plant
scientists. We invite extended 2-page-abstract for oral and/or poster presentations on topics Including
but not limited to machine learning applications to field-scale plant phenotyping (e.g., trait extraction),
plant pathology (e.g., disease, pest, and weed scouting), plant breeding (e.g., yield prediction) and
enabling smart farm management practices. We particularly encourage applications of recent AI advances
such as multi-modal generative models, large language models (LLM), 3D geometric deep learning,
scientific machine learning, deep reinforcement learning, robotic perception and learning-enabled control,
uncertainty quantification and robust machine learning, in enabling and accelerating research in plant
science and agriculture. We also encourage work that results in creating annotated benchmark datasets
for ML in agriculture.

<h6 class="mt-4">Note</h6>
<p class="mt-2">In addition to the awards listed above, an additional prize of $1000 may be awarded to the top team comprising only undergraduate or high school students that is not among the top 3 teams overall. </p>
<p class="mt-2">At least one member from a winning team is expected to attend MLCAS 2024 in-person to present their work and participate in the award ceremony. In addition to the cash prizes listed above, one member from each winning team will receive a free registration for MLCAS 2024. If no team member is able to attend in-person due to VISA or other travel issues, the team is encouraged to contact the MLCAS 2024 organizers to discuss their eligibility to win a prize.</p>
<h5 class="mt-4">Disclaimer</h5>
<p class="mt-2">Paricipant teams must finalize their team members before the composition deadline on August 4.
teams joining after August 4 cannot change their team member composition during the competition phase. Prizes will be awarded to the winning teams. Funds will be paid in the most efficient manner,
typically a check to winners living in the US with payment to each team member (up to 5 participants maximum).
The team contact can suggest the distribution for the team members.
If a team has more than five participants, five or fewer participants need to be identified to receive the prize money.
For teams outside the US, prize money will be wired to a single individual representing the team. We will need full wire instructions in an appropriate format.
Please note that there will be a wire fee on the receiving end of the transaction based on the recipient's bank/financial institution.
At this time, we are unable to send wires to Iran, Cuba, North Korea, or Syria, therefore no prizes will be awarded there.
Please note that prizes are tax reportable in the United States. Tax forms are required for payment recipients.
US Citizens or permanent US residents: Form W9 including social security number and Foreign individuals: Form W-8BEN.</p>
