We first design deterministic expert models which serve as a benchmark and inform the design of flexible neural-network architectures. Finally, a sensitivity analysis of the latter allows a clustering of hybrids into susceptible and resistant ones.enneural networksdeterministic expert-driven modelsinformed machine learningagriculturerepresentation learningCombining expert knowledge and neural networks to model environmental stresses in agriculturepaper
