BIG DATA AND DIGITAL TOOLS APPLIED TO LIVESTOCK PRODUCTION

March 13-17, 2023

Instituto Nacional de Investigacion Agropecuaria (INIA)
Montevideo, Uruguay

TOPICS:
  1.  Big Data and Data Science in Livestock
  2.  Planning Research Studies in Animal Sciences
  3.  Database Management
  4.  Multidimensional Regression and Classification
  5.  Machine Learning Techniques
  6.  Image Processing and Analysis

DESCRIPTION: Graduate level course (PhD and advanced MS) for researchers
working in all areas of animal sciences and agriculture, such as nutrition
and physiology, management, genetics and reproduction, in industry or
academia, especially those interested in data analytics and precision
management of livestock. Statisticians, computer scientists, and data
scientists interested in learning about potential applications in animal
science production can also benefit from the course. The course will cover
key concepts and techniques related to statistics and machine learning
applied to high-dimensional data in livestock, including data from sensors,
imaging, genomics, farm-recorded data from management software, and publicly
available datasets. The course includes expository lectures and
demonstrations with real data and useful software and algorithms, that be
shared with the participants.
