gym-DSSAT: a crop model turned into a Reinforcement Learning environment
La résolution d’un problème de déecision séquentielle en conditions réelles s’appuie très souvent sur l’utilisation d’un simulateur qui reproduit ces conditions réelles. Nous introduisons un nouvel environnement pour l’apprentissage par renforcement (AR) qui propose des tâches d’apprentissage réalistes pour la conduite de cultures.

Improving Crop Models: Incorporating New Processes, New Approaches, and Better Calibrations [PDF]
Early ancestors of crop simulation models (De Wit, 1965; Monteith, 1965; Duncan et al., 1967) were born before primitive personal computers were available (e.g. Apple II released in 1977, IBM PC released in 1981).
