Case Summary:

Experts believe that one of the many ways to determine the worth of a client is to look at their peer review experience. It is common knowledge that only those researchers who have a proven track record of excellence in the field are invited to conduct peer reviews. Thus, it goes without saying that any peer reviewer must be a reliable expert in the field too. So, when our client, a leading applied machine learning expert in computer science came to us for his EB1-A or Alien of Extraordinary Ability petition, our team looked at his impressive peer review count which stood at a high score of 80 reviews in all.

Apart from this valuable information, we also found out that he has achieved a consistent and notable record of success and influence in this area of study, and is especially well-known for his design of an explainable and interpretable machine vision framework to evaluate plant stresses and perform phenotyping that has been benefitting the agriculture industry as well as plant phenotyping research since its inception.

Additionally, his overall work related to the improvement of applied machine learning methodologies and applications thereof has resulted in 13 peer-reviewed scientific articles which have been cited 662 times by peers using his prior findings to make additional discoveries related to the improvement of the agriculture sector through deep learning models. We also added that his work has been cited by researchers in at least 44 countries according to Google Scholar.

Furthermore, his study has received funding from the National Institute of Food and Agriculture (NIFA) within the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the National Science Foundation (NSF). This is why he also received 4 letters of recommendation from other experts in the field, two of which are quoted below:

“[the client’s] project is critically important to the United States due to the need for an effective framework to manage spatiotemporal data. As technological systems become larger and more interconnected, the importance of [client’s] research to the country will only continue to grow.”

“The use of artificial intelligence and other smart farming techniques, such as those employed by [the client], enables the United States to feed its population by creating more efficient crop production and management practices. Moreover, [the client’s] work increases yield and improves the diagnosis and treatment of plants affected by stresses and diseases that have the capacity to induce catastrophic losses.”

Thus, our client’s excellent track record in his area of expertise helped him obtain the EB1-A approval in just 7 days. This was also made possible by the premium processing upgrade and our team’s diligent efforts in the case preparation process. We are glad to have helped him, and we wish him the very best in all future endeavors.
