Detecting of multi-modality in probabilistic regression models
Polar, Andrew, Poluektov, Michael
This paper focuses on building of models of stochastic systems with aleatoric uncertainty. The nature of the considered systems is such that the identical inputs can result in different outputs, i.e. the output is a random variable. The suggested in this paper algorithm targets an identification of multi-modal properties of the output distributions, even when they depend on the inputs and vary significantly throughout the dataset. This ability of the suggested method to recognise complex and not only bell-shaped distributions follows from its construction and is backed up by provided experimental results. In general, the suggested method belongs to the category of boosted ensemble learning techniques, where the single deterministic component can be an arbitrarily-chosen regression model. The algorithm does not require any special properties of the chosen regression model, other than having descriptive capabilities with some expected accuracy for the training data type.

How John Deere plans to build a world of fully autonomous farming by 2030
Can John Deere become one of the leading AI and robotics companies in the world alongside Tesla and Silicon Valley technology giants over the next decade? That notion may seem incongruous with the general perception of the 185-year-old company as a heavy-metal manufacturer of tractors, bulldozers and lawnmowers painted in the signature green and yellow colors. But that is what the company sees in its future, according to Jorge Heraud, vice president of automation and autonomy for Moline, Illinois-based Deere, a glimpse of which was showcased at last January's Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, where Deere unveiled its fully autonomous 8R farm tractor, driven by artificial intelligence rather than a farmer behind the wheel. The autonomous 8R is the culmination of Deere's nearly two decades of strategic planning and investment in automation, data analytics, GPS guidance, internet-of-things connectivity and software engineering. While a good deal of that R&D has been homegrown, the company also has been on a spree of acquisitions and partnerships with agtech startups, harvesting know-how as well as talent.

Artificial Intelligence: An Evangelical Statement of Principles
As followers of Christ, we are called to engage the world around us with the unchanging gospel message of hope and reconciliation. Tools like technology are able to aid us in this pursuit. We know they can also be designed and used in ways that dishonor God and devalue our fellow image-bearers. Evangelical Christians hold fast to the inerrant and infallible Word of God, which states that every human being is made in God's image and thus has infinite value and worth in the eyes of their Creator. This message dictates how we view God, ourselves, and the tools that God has given us the ability to create.
