@TaliaRinger I started by forcing myself to write 10 lines each day in any section of the proposal, including broader impacts. By the end of week 3 of this exercise (which was T-5 weeks), I finally started picking up momentum; purged everything I wrote until then and re-wrote from scratch.

Honored to receive the Outstanding Paper Award at #RLC2025! Our paper WOFOSTGym brings us a step closer to applying RL to specialty crops management.

If you're at RLC, come visit our talk today at 10:35am in CCIS 1-440 and our poster at 3 pm.

📢Excited to introduce WOFOSTGym--an RL simulator for modeling annual and perennial crops, across multiple farms. It provides a challenging testbed for RL agents to learn agromanagement strategies, bringing us closer to AI-driven precision agriculture. https://t.co/jvfyXqC9Dq

[Sandhya Saisubramanian @sandhya_ai]

It is the first Rl simulator for annual and perennial crop management decision support. The repository includes high-fidelity parameters for two perennial crops and 23 annual crops, along with diverse pre-specified agromanagement policies for benchmarking RL agents.

@TaliaRinger We were in survival mode the first year. At ~18 months after childbirth, I started getting back to research more seriously and could think better without having a brain fog. There's still many things to juggle but it gets better.

Cold emails are hard and good ones can change a life. Here is my email to @NandoDF that started my career in ML (at the time I was a PM at Google) https://t.co/ILaOtGQvbD Real effort (incl feedback) went into drafting it. Thanks to @EugeneVinitsky for nudging me to put it online

@sidsrivast @pulkit_verma Congratulations @pulkit_verma and @sidsrivast!
