Machine Learning in agriculture
Sensors in Agriculture

Techniques Sebastien Lacube Uses:

I am extremely good at formalizing the problematics, defining the key problems that will have to be dealt with, and producing the first proof-of-concept.

My research background gives me a really good capacity to search and explore the literature (scientific or applied) and write a comprehensive and exhaustive review of key solutions, or key locks that have to be dealt with.

My entrepreneurial background (building my own company from scratch) makes me a good choice to relate technological advances or Litterature exploration to real-world application.

Sebastien Lacube's Problem Solving Experience:

  1. I developed a company proposing consulting in agriculture modeling. And the development of affordable solutions for plant science, using open-source technologies (ie: available for everyone, and thus, lower development costs).

    I participated in the development of the most important crop model in the world (APSIM) and had a Ph.D. in collaboration with Graeme Hammer (the lead researcher behind the project)

    I worked in collaboration with experts of the IPCC to assess the impact of climate change on European Agriculture (France, Belgium, Wheat & Maize).

    I worked in collaboration with big companies to develop models for plant yield prediction based on several techniques, including machine learning, historical crop modeling (APSIM/WOFOST), and data assimilation from field sensors.
