We recently published a manuscript entitled “Enhancing crop model parameter estimation across computing environments: Utilizing the GLUE method and parallel computing for determining genetic coefficients” in Computers and Electronics in Agriculture. The study describes improvements in the Generalized Likelihood Uncertainty Estimation (GLUE) program, introducing a new parallel computing system for calibrating genetic parameters within the crop […]
