Chapter 64 Introduction to Data Mining

There are companies that are willing to sponsor their own research, without any strings attached, that is, direct horizontal funding sponsorship, as long as the school account is passed, the money can be transferred.

It's like giving money.

Wang Hao couldn't think of a reason to refuse at all, he could only say thank you for agreeing, he chatted with Zhang Zhiwei for a while, and to see if the time was different, he went back to the hotel to pack his things and prepare to go back.

The other side.

Zhang Zhiwei is taking the printed out of the 'application of large number multiplication algorithm' carefully, and there is a detailed video record of the lecture process, and someone has summarized all the content and printed it out for the reference of technicians.

Looking at the content one by one, thinking back to the feeling of listening to the lecture, he couldn't help but sigh, "This teacher Wang Hao is really young, and the lecture is really good." I haven't done front-line work for a few years, but I can still understand it. ”

Last night's three-hour lecture, Zhang Zhiqiang listened to it from beginning to end, the reason why he was very interested is because he can understand, back to ten years ago, he was still a top programmer, algorithm expert, now he rarely participates in front-line work, a lot of things have been forgotten, and he can still understand new algorithm research, which is a very novel thing.

Zhu Zhen walked over and said with a smile, "Teacher Wang Hao is really good, I asked, most of the employees said they understood, and they knew something about how to apply it." ”

Zhang Zhiwei nodded and said, "This time I invited Wang Hao to give a lecture, and the effect can be said to have exceeded expectations. ”

He changed the subject, "Zhu Zhen, what do you think of his research?" It's that God's number. ”

Zhu Zhen sat down next to him, hesitated for a moment and said, "I don't know if I'm right, but it feels unlikely." That kind of research, if it could be done, someone would have done it a long time ago, and I knew about this when I was in school, that the calculation is too complex, and many top mathematicians and algorithm experts have studied it, but there are no results. ”

"Same as I thought." Zhang Zhiwei listened and nodded.

Zhu Zhen asked with some confusion, "Then why?" What he asked was that Zhang Zhiwei wanted to sponsor Wang Hao's research horizontally.

"Zhu Zhen, you don't understand this."

Zhang Zhiwei folded his arms over his chest, half lying on the sofa, and said with a smile, "Are we going to invest in R&D projects?" Of course not, the underlying algorithm research and development, even if there are achievements and no patents, can we still restrict the use? This is impossible for an algorithm, and it will be transmitted sooner or later. ”

Zhu Zhen nodded thoughtfully, and his expression was even more puzzled.

"We are investing in people, Wang Hao." Zhang Zhiwei said, "If I'm not mistaken, he's only twenty-five years old, right?" At this age, you can develop two influential algorithms on your own, what about in the future? In another five years? Decade? Sponsoring a small project is nothing, and the most basic and important thing for a company like ours is technology. ”

"Moreover, like this lecture, he came, he talked seriously, and he talked perfunctory, anyway, the money is the same, but the effect of these two attitudes is too different, if he said less content, we definitely didn't know at the time, and then found out that it would consume time and energy."

"In fact, it's the same as teachers and students, why do many parents stuff red envelopes into teachers, and they are repeatedly banned, just hoping that teachers can pay attention to their students and be more serious, right?"

Zhu Zhen suddenly realized when he heard this, and couldn't help but give Zhang Zhiqiang a thumbs up, "Mr. Zhang, you still think too much." ”

Zhang Zhiwei smiled a little smugly and continued, "You still have little experience and experience, and the research of this god number is meaningless at all, and it will not yield results." ”

"What's the use of fighting for 'ownership' of a study that can't produce results? It may also cause conflicts and disputes. We are optimistic about the research and make unconditional sponsorship, and we can directly achieve the goal. ”

Zhu Zhenman nodded approvingly.

……

Wang Hao didn't know that his research was not favored, and even if he knew, he didn't care at all, because it didn't affect at all, and the important thing was that the other party was willing to spend money to sponsor the project unconditionally.

One number, one million!

Even if you apply for the national 'Outstanding Youth' project, the funding is more than one million, and the funding is not for yourself, and you have to apply for any expenses to get the money.

The problem is, the cost of research is very low!

No matter how much money is allocated for vertical projects, it does not go directly into one's own pocket, so what's the point of applying for it?

The current 1 million is the 'unconditional' sponsorship of the research by the enterprise, but it is just a 'horizontal funding' process, and the money is transferred to the school's account and then into its own account.

"One million in one opening, enough atmosphere!"

"And it's not about ownership, it's just direct sponsorship...... Zhang Zhiwei, good man! ”

When I first heard Zhang Zhiwei talk about sponsorship funds, I thought it would be 'cooperative research and development', that is, the other party provides financial support, or allows researchers to participate in their own research and development projects.

However, the basic algorithm research is not patented, and it is impossible to prohibit others from using it.

'Cooperative R&D' may be a name, for example, the company has several researchers who have participated in the 'so-and-so scientific research project', and there are any major achievements, and for example, the paper is published and then signed.

Wait a minute.

Later, when he heard that he didn't want to say anything, he also thought about it cautiously, and felt that the other party might want to befriend him, and there was only one reason.

A million sounds like a lot, but for Penguin, it's not enough to describe.

Zhang Zhiwei's assets are calculated in units of '100 million'.

"No matter, it won't hurt me anyway." Wang Hao shook his head vigorously, and immediately focused on the research task, and the trip to the deep city could be said to have gained a lot.

[Task 2]

[Inspiration value: 86 points.] 】

Before going to Shencheng, the inspiration value was only '35' points, and it suddenly rose to '51' points, which is definitely a super gain, and the large amount of new knowledge and ideas in my head is enough to explain the problem.

If I used to have a research direction, now I feel that my thinking is much smoother, and I know how to conduct research, and I can solve the problem of 'God's number'.

Of course, the inspiration value does not reach 100 points, and there will definitely be some problems in the process of research, and some problems may even lead to the stagnation of the research, but after all, we know the direction, and even the method, and the inspiration value is '86' points, and it is not far from the '100' point.

Research, and it will be done soon!

……

After returning to Xihai University, Wang Hao began a repetitive and fulfilling life.

Exercise, read, do research......

Although I spend a few hours reading books every day, the quest inspiration points increase very slowly, and it would be nice to increase a little bit in three days.

Wang Hao was not too anxious, because the inspiration value is just a data, and the knowledge in his head will continue to increase in the process of learning, during which he also studied the complex data of the Navitas laboratory, and also downloaded a software for big data analysis.

And then, completely clueless!

In the face of a lot of complex data, I don't know where to start, but it's normal to think about it, he can only say that he is an 'algorithm expert', and data mining is another field, and it is not easy to find patterns in a lot of data.

However, Wang Hao still wants to do a good job, and he has already promised Xia Guobin that he will help, so he can't give up without even thinking about it.

The second is also to hope to do a good job.

This analytical research work is very meaningful and very classical, a scholar in the field of mathematics, who wants to do cross-field research on applied technology, is not to go to the research team to act as a 'calculation tool', data analysis is a very critical work.

In the face of a large number of complicated experimental data, high-level experts in applied mathematics and data mining are the core figures of the R&D team in various fields.

"But how?" Wang Hao had a headache with a lot of data.

He clicked on the webpage and saw the school's intranet, and suddenly thought that the electives had not yet been reported.

That's right!

It is definitely much more efficient to set up a corresponding elective course and improve yourself in the process of constantly lecturing to students than to read books by yourself.

"That's it!"

Wang Hao logged back into his account and declared that he had opened a professional elective course in the Department of Mathematics and the Department of Computer Science - "Introduction to Data Mining".

The selected textbook is a professional book on data mining, which is aimed at undergraduate and graduate students.
