Course on Principles of data science applied to livestock
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 is structured with 4 sessions per day, Monday through Friday (Sept 13-17, 2021) – except on Wed afternoon (free time to foster discussion and networking among participants), including expositive lectures and some demo with real data and useful software and algorithms that will be shared with the participants.
