Mission:

Agriculture is an integral part of life, civilization, and economy, with applications ranging from food to medicine. Current estimates put thrusts like precision agriculture at 4 billion USD (by 2018) with an estimated compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 13%. This initiative seeks to foster innovation in (g1) sensors and platforms, (g2) eXplainable artificial intelligence (XAI) for data-2-information, and (g3) data translation for implementation in agriculture. These goals address the spectrum of sensing to visualization to decisions and actions, with an emphasis on trustworthy and transparent human-in- and human-over-the-loop solutions.

The DDAg Initiative aims to increase MU cross- and inter-disciplinary activities in (g1)-(g3) by funding internal seed projects, connecting faculty, educating students, exploring curriculum options, and resources to increase external visibility and funding.

Members:

MU research groups interested in big data and agriculture, collaborative, interdisciplinary research and problem solving.
