The researchers focused on on Remote Sensing Data.
They used sattelite data: MODIS, Sentinel. They used it

Since the data has different modalities such as numeric

that deals with the different data modalities.

Potential Gap

The study used parameters Area, production,


yield, and area under irrigation. While these
parameters are essential for predicting crop yield,
data about the climate condition and soil condition
is also an important factor which the study did not
include.

The researchers compared 10 ML algorithms.


They did not include an algorithm that is based on
a Neural Network. It would have been interesting
to know the result of the model when it was trained
on a Neural Network which is known for its ability
to discover more patterns when compared to ML
models.
The study only focused on sattelite data which only
shows visual information about the crop fields. This
makes the study to focus only on large lands of
crop fields which would not generalize on smaller
crop fields.

Drawbacks

The study did not clearly explain how


they divided their data for model training
and validation and did not show data for
predicted values versus actual values of
the corn yield.

Drawbacks
The study did not stated the size of their
dataset which is crucial on identifying
weather there are class imbalance, and
the number of validation set.

Drawbacks

The study used classification instead of


regression. Therefore, this is not a yield
number estimation task. They did not
address the problem that arise when
using only 5 categories for yield
prediction such as the wide range of
estimation, which does not solve the
problem of "Precise yield estimation".

Drawbacks
The result of the study was not
adequately discussed. The researchers
showed the charts, but the actual numeric
values are nowhere to be seen.

Drawbacks

The paper accomplished their main


objective which is to compare the
performance of their Neural Network
model to ML model. However, in most
cases, Deep Learning models really are
known to show better performance
because of their complexity and ability to
better make sense of patterns in data
compared to statistics-based models
(ML). So it would have been a little more
fair if they compared their model also to
other Neural Network models.

Drawbacks
The result of this paper could be further
improved by experimenting with other
types of neural network and a dataset
with more factors included.

Drawbacks

The source of the data they used was not


mentioned, including the sample size.
Also, in their result they only showed the
predicted values and not the actual
values so it is impossible to compare the
difference between actual and predicted
data. There is also no information about
the performance of each of the model
they used.

Drawbacks
They datasource was provided by
Syngenta which composed of different
varieties of Syngenta corn seeds. Also,
one of the features they used for training
is crop genotype, which means these are
data that are exclusive to Syngenta. This
means that the developed model is
expected to generalize on Syngenta
brands and not on other brands.

Drawbacks

The approach they presented only allows


for prediction of yield on a certain region
or state so it is not applicable to be
applied on targeted farms.

Drawbacks
They did not specify the performances of
the other models such as the Lasso, RF,
and LightGBM. They only mentioned that
these types of models are very hard and
time consuming to setup.

Drawbacks

There was no conclusions given in the


paper.

They did not justify why they used Data


mining instead of classical ML models or
Deep learning methods.

Drawbacks
The dataset coud be further improved by
adding more countries.

Drawbacks

The work can be further improved by


including a prediction of the correct
sowing season.

Drawbacks

> source of data was not mentioned.


> performance of the prediction model
was not mentioned.

Drawbacks
They used models with several
parameters but they did not mention or
show the performance of each.

Potential Gap
The study only used one model, the

typically used aside from this model and it
would have been better to compare its
performance with other models in order to
find a more optimize performance.

Potential Gap

implication of shadows in the image,
which potentially changes the color of the

Potential Gap

This could be tested on other crops aside

Potential Gap

The paper did not clearly explain the


result of the trained model. It also did not
mention that 82% accuracy is not
acceptable due to the nature of the task
which is identifying weeds from crop and
there is about 18% chance of error.

Potential Gap
One problem this could face is the
presence of anomalies that could cover
the camera such as clouds, debris,
animals, etc., which could cover the
cameras field of view.

The developed model only labels the
detection as "good" and "infected". It
does not say what is the name of the

Potential Gap

The model was not tested on real-life

dataset which often does not represent
real-world data.

Potential Gap

The dataset they tested on consist only of
