Chapter 81: Brain Changes?

Back at the residence, Xia Ming still pinched his nose from time to time, although he could control his senses freely, but the psychological shadow would not be erased for a while.

He told Xiaotang: "We need an expert who is proficient in brain science and neuroscience. ”

Today, he tried to go deep into Hou Yunting's brain for the first time, facing a labyrinth of thunder and lightning, he carefully touched those thunderbolts, hoping to combine internal and external reactions to obtain the correspondence between consciousness, nerves and body, and the result seemed to affect the autonomic nerves, loosening the sphincter, and letting Hou Yunting urinate and urinate at the same time.

"It would be nice if we could build a human neural model", when Xia Ming said this, Tang Xiaotang nodded approvingly, this is the thinking of scientists.

However, she was unforgiving: "Are you fighting Lilo's idea? ”

"Yes", Xia Ming said casually, and then came to his senses, and was about to explain, but Xiaotang smiled: "It's my tone that is wrong, I am mixed with you, and my mind is often out of shape." ”

"Hey", Xiao Huan said disdainfully: "To put it bluntly, Ah Ming and I are both laymen......

After speaking, she bit the potato chips so loudly that Xia Ming couldn't help but rub her head.

"I'm not a child, you guys are busy with business!" The girl huffed and went back to her house with the potato chips.

The three of them have been under the same roof for several days, and they often make such small awkwardness, and Xiaotang doesn't care: "Go to the research institute and talk to Liluo." ”

"There are human neural models, but they are very sketchy, the source is in the brain, and our understanding of the working mechanism of the brain is still too shallow, and many conclusions are like the speculation of ancient scientists. The kind of detailed model you want is completely black technology at the moment. ”

Listening to Xia Ming's thoughts, Liluo poured a basin of cold water on him.

A large workshop on the new site of the institute has been sorted out, in fact, the workshop has been laid with new floors, the roof has been repaired, and the wall holes and window glass have been repaired.

This workshop is a biological experiment area, which is separated by plates, and the pink area is the synaptic research room of Director Lilo.

Xia Ming had already known this conclusion, and he then asked, "What are the problems?" If there was a supercomputer ten times more powerful than TOP1, would these problems be solved? ”

"It's not enough for a supercomputer alone, it's a bit possible if it's a super artificial intelligence," Lillo blinked.

What does this woman know? 】

Xia Ming asked Xiaotang in the God Chat.

[I'm desperate for your emotional intelligence, she's testing you, stupid! 】

Xiaotang made a sweaty expression.

"I'm testing you to see if you've told her anything. 】

[You just have a hard mouth, I really didn't say anything to her, but she must think that you, no, even me now, something is wrong. 】

[Can you have some in-depth communication with her?] 】

[You can control the scale yourself, it's really necessary, I think she can also join our network.] Don't look at her on the surface...... That, but he is a very pure scientist in his bones, and he has nothing to do with Yang Yuanchang's side. 】

With Xiaotang's assurance, Xia Ming was much more relieved, and asked Liluo again: "Can you tell me in detail, how can artificial intelligence help in this matter?" ”

Lilo looked at the two of them and smiled, "You two look so strange, as if you have telepathy. ”

The two of them made sweaty expressions at the same time on the god chat.

"Don't be so weird, don't let me take it seriously, or my worldview will collapse......"

Liluo joked and explained to Xia Ming.

The study of human nerves is a huge project, a synthesis of many disciplines.

The study of human vision is a discipline called optoneuroscience. This science has a history of more than 2,400 years, starting from Aristotle's delusion of waterfalls and drawing conclusions about the "after-effects of movement".

In modern times, with the help of more and more advanced tools, especially instruments such as nuclear magnetic resonance, research has become more and more in-depth. But that's it, until now, human beings have not been able to reverse the eyeball, and even the photoelectric conversion mechanism of the natural eyeball has been thoroughly understood.

In terms of eyeballs, the greatest thing that human beings have been able to do so far is to put a chip in the eye of a blind swimmer at the Paralympic Games a few years ago to replace the retina and restore his vision.

However, this vision is only false vision, which allows the brain to adapt to the adjusted new signals, which is the so-called "brain supplement". The chip is not permanent, and until now humanity has not solved the problem of immunity implanted in objects implanted in the human body.

The same is true of the eyeball, the back end of the eyeball, the processing of visual signals inside the brain, human understanding is more superficial, and now it only penetrates into the cerebral cortex area. For example, the cortex in the 17th area of the Broadman brain system is the V1 cortex, which is responsible for processing the most coarse visual information. The deeper V2 cortex deals with specific recognition related to space, V3 is information relay, and V4 is related to color recognition.

As for the signal processing mechanism below the cortex, down to the neuronal level, there is no clue in the current research, let alone a complete system.

Neuron-level studies are also being carried out, but such studies are so detailed and cumbersome that they are desperate for researchers.

There are observation tools, and you can do MRI on mice, and you have to design a topic in advance to do functional MRI on people. But whether it's a guinea pig or a human, the measured data is very tedious to analyze. Although there is a lot of analysis software and statistical methods, each trial requires a case study, adjusting the data model, and even designing different plug-ins for different test items.

Every research result that can be published contains dozens or even hundreds of branch projects, and each project needs to do dozens or hundreds of observation experiments. Such an achievement is just another stroke on the grand blueprint of describing the neural mechanism of human vision, and this blueprint is a paper of at least tens of thousands of words.

If Xia Ming published Xiao Huan's case, it would definitely be a 12-magnitude earthquake in the academic world, and it would be no problem to even win the Nobel Prize in Medicine for ten years.

It's a pity that Xiao Huan's situation is not only about neuroscience, but also quantum physics, computer science, and even the concept of self-consciousness that is close to metaphysics, and this is not something that many papers can clearly explain, it is a veritable black technology.

"If AI can do all the work of data modeling, data analysis, and adjustment, and researchers just do the direction and project design, the research progress can be improved...... Thirty to fifty times. ”

"If artificial intelligence is stronger, for example, if it has a knowledge base of the entire related discipline, and can do the induction and correlation derivation of experimental results, then I can come up with all the research in the entire field in one year and then ...... Win the Nobel Prize! ”

"Oh my God, I can't think about it!"

Liluo looked at Xia Ming expectantly: "Can you give me such an artificial intelligence?" ”

Xia Ming smiled bitterly and shook his head, and Liluo's face immediately sank: "Then there's no need to talk nonsense with me." ”

[Scientists are really extreme utilitarians, they are so unrestrained in giving benefits, and they ignore people when they hear that there is no benefit. 】

[Are you disappointed?] 】

Xia Ming and Xiaotang teased each other in the chat, and Liluo said: "However, I came for you, Qianyan, knowing that you must have achieved results, and I am still hesitating whether I can trust me." As a corollary, this must be quite impressive. ”

She smiled charmingly at Xia Ming: "Moreover, the decision is up to you." If it weren't for Oni saying you were his man, I would have ...... In the words of your Chinese people......"

She switched to stiff Chinese and struggled to spit out four syllables: "Zhi, cheap, needle, play." ”

Oni is Xiaotang's English name, Xia Ming is thinking, if you add a Kexia, it looks like a blackened version of Xiaotang......

Then he was shocked to realize that the faces of the two were close to the tip of his nose, and the pair of meat balls pressed his chest more unscrupulously, and quickly retreated to show his innocence, causing the French woman to laugh, but not to him, but to Xiaotang.

"Your little boyfriend is so cute, I can't help it if I don't eat it quickly."

Although she changed to French, it was not difficult for Xia Ming, and the assistant intelligence flipped through the dictionary, oh, a very nice assist!

Xiaotang glanced at him, knowing that he understood this, and said in English: "If it is the subject of awakening vegetative people, are you sure?" ”

"Oh my God, it's a big challenge," says Lillo, who is always emotional: "There is no standard model for this, and the clinical subject is not something I'm good at, but I can try it with some successful cases from the UK." It's just Oni, your mother has been in a coma for a year and a half, and the success rate is ......"

Xiaotang shook his head: "It's Professor Xu, who has been in a coma for five months." If the awakening is not sure, let him have a more sober consciousness first. ”

Xiaotang's mother has changed some organs, and it is not suitable for awakening with a stimulation program, which she has long known, and Xiaotang's explanation is exactly what Xia Ming wants.

The reason why it has not been able to penetrate deep into Hou Yunting's brain is because Hou Yunting seems to have completely lost her autonomous consciousness, and her brain is like a borderland, mastered by primitive functions that Xia Ming does not understand.

If Professor Xu can have a certain degree of autonomy, then Xia Ming can establish a consciousness link like he invaded Xiao Huan's brain before.

Lilo was a little embarrassed: "This difficulty is lower, but it is more complicated, it all depends on luck." ”

Xiaotang's tone was very serious: "Professor Xu's consciousness is the ladder to the door of trust, Liluo, you can do it." ”

Lillo sighed, "Well, who let me get on your ship?" ”

She said to Xia Ming again: "This also has something to do with your brain, right?" ”

Xia Ming and Xiaotang were secretly surprised, how could they see it?

"Just now I saw that there are radial traces of capillary damage in your eyeballs, but your eyes are very bright and very bright, which means that your brain has a high amount of blood oxygen absorption, and there must be some unusual changes."

As soon as Liluo finished speaking, Xia Ming asked R3AI, and R3AI's answer made him secretly frightened: "The physical structure of the main brain has changed, which is caused by the incompatibility of the original structure with the QNI format information, but it does not affect the ......."

This hint has been there for a long time, Xia Ming has not paid attention to it, and now that something is really wrong, he is still a little numb.

Can you believe that R3AI's so-called lack of impact is not significant?

"It just so happens that the NMR machine is also installed, make a MIR?"

Lillo asked, MIR stands for nuclear magnetic resonance.

Xia Ming looked at Xiaotang and nodded heavily, hoping that his brain didn't grow tentacles and became a spirit absorbing monster or something.
