Computer models are a great tool to analyze neuronal mechanisms in the brain, but tuning these models to match brain activity has long been a daunting task for scientists. We developed a new machine learning tool that automates this process and used it to develop a simulation environment for a retinal implant.

Spatial soil variability makes a farmer's daily business challenging as it leads to varying growth conditions for field crops. Machine learning can help to map soil properties so that farmers can adapt fertilizing and irrigation management in a time- and cost-efficient way.

The Bayesian formalism can add uncertainty to deep neural networks. But Bayesian deep learning has a reputation as cumbersome and expensive. No longer. Recent results show how to achieve calibrated uncertainty in deep networks efficiently, without affecting their predictive performance.
