Chapter 47: Gundam's Dream

In the office of Professor Tang Zhigao.

Mr. Ma and Mr. Yang sat at the same desk, and the latter watched as the former filled out a list of Excel names with varying numbers.

When he saw Ma Jun finally fill in "3000" after Ye Ming's name, Yang Chaoxiong sighed: "The boss is really atmospheric. ”

"If I were you, I would pay for Ye Ming to subsidize another three thousand." Ma Jun turned around and joked with a smile: "CVPR (IEEE International Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition, one of the three top conferences of computer vision) is the second work, you are beautiful." ”

Yang Chaoxiong immediately laughed: "Isn't it still over...... And who knows if it will be able to get by? ”

"You have to believe the boss's vision, he just thought about which journal to apply for for two days." Speaking of Ma Jun, he also sighed: "Before reading the paper and source code, I thought he was just specializing in openCV (open source visual framework), but I didn't expect him to make a framework by himself...... Damn, people can't compare. ”

"The point is, this guy hasn't realized how awesome he is." Yang Chaoxiong glanced back and exhaled softly: "You don't know, I looked stupid when I came back......

"Otherwise, why does the boss like this guy so much?" Ma Jun smiled and filled in the word (subsidy) for Ye Ming's column.

"It's also a loss to Lao Tang, if you change some bosses, not to mention the subject subsidy, even if there is, the paper will definitely be gone." Yang Chaoxiong nodded thoughtfully: "By the way, the CVPR school wants to give a reward, right?" ”

"That must be there!"

Ma Jun checked it and saved the form, he glanced around with emotion, and finally stood up: "It's up to you to make payslips for everyone next." ”

"I really don't want to do this."

Ma Jun shrugged: "That's no way, the teacher likes you." ”

“…… You're coming less. ”

Having said that, Yang Chaoxiong also knew that his senior brother Ma Jun was about to graduate with a doctorate.

Moreover, the boss did not delay or say anything in the face of this big disciple who opened the door, and helped Ma Jun contact a laboratory in Canada as a doctoral queen early.

The work that Ma Jun usually does can only fall on him.

At this time, there was a sound of footsteps at the door, and soon Tang Zhigao's figure appeared at the door.

……

"The office is so messy?" Professor Tang looked around and instructed Yang Chaoxiong: "Chaoxiong, clean up the table." ”

"Oh, who's going to come later?" Yang Chaoxiong stood up and immediately cleaned up.

Although he didn't call Ma Jun, he immediately picked up the broom behind the door.

"No one, Ye Ming is coming."

Yang Chaoxiong was stunned, and immediately put down the book, crying and laughing: "Teacher, don't bring this, how big is Xiao Yezi......

Professor Tang was dumbfounded: "If you don't learn to clean up the mess at home, you will be yelled at by your wife sooner or later in the future." ”

"Hehe, it seems that the master usually yells at you."

"Fuck off, get to work." Professor Tang scolded with a smile and walked to the back of his desk and sat down.

Ma Jun smiled slightly: "Teacher, what is Ye Ming doing here?" ”

"He's ......" Professor Tang took out his mobile phone and put it on the table, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "He said that he wanted to engage in brain-computer communication in robotics, come and ask me." ”

Ma Jun and Yang Chaoxiong looked at each other when they heard this, and their eyes showed surprise at the same time.

Of course, they know that the mentor is currently struggling with what to apply for in the next big project - either a "wheelchair" combining brain-computer + AI - or car autonomous driving.

The former requires collaboration across several disciplines, and the "market" outlook doesn't look good at the moment, which means that even if you apply, you won't have much funding.

In the case of the latter, although the prospects of autonomous driving are broad, not to mention the fierce competition, the topics of automobile autonomous driving must be national-level, and they will be led by deans and academician-level bosses.

Old Tang wants to dominate, but it's a little close.

But Ye Ming, this guy, actually came up and said that he wanted to use the brain computer to communicate......

Is it such a coincidence?

"Does Ye Ming know the difficulty of brain-computer communication?" Yang Chaoxiong threw the book aside, with a puzzled expression: "I admit that this guy is very sharp, but this kind of interdisciplinary and cross-professional big project, he wants to do it alone?" Do you want to get a toy? ”

Ma Jun smiled: "If you really want to get a toy, it's better to buy one on Taobao." ”

Yang Chaoxiong thought so: "Seconded." ”

"I don't know, so I'd like to hear about him." Professor Tang said and looked at his phone.

A moment later, Ye Ming appeared at the door of the office.

Tang Zhigao, Ma Jun, and Yang Chaoxiong sat in a row with stools, and Ye Ming sat opposite the three of them, quite like a graduate participating in the defense.

Seeing Ye Ming pursed his lips, Professor Tang instructed Yang Chaoxiong: "Get a bottle of water for Ye Ming." ”

"Ye Ming, you continue."

"Okay." Ye Ming unscrewed the bottle and took a sip, still unable to hide the excitement in his eyes: "We assume that the future world is a high-tech world with a chip in the back of everyone's head, then through brain-computer interface + AI automatic driving vehicles, control of mechanical exoskeletons and even larger bodies, it must be the future development direction." ”

As soon as the description of "a larger body" was spoken, the three people on the other side laughed at the same time.

"Do you really want to build a Gundam?" Yang Chaoxiong was overjoyed - Ye Ming said in front of Professor Tang that he wanted to build Gundam, and it had already spread throughout the entire division.

"You have to have some dreams!" Ye Ming held the mineral water and said with a smile: "If you don't accumulate steps, you can't go thousands of miles, so I plan to use brainwaves to control the robot first." ”

Professor Tang nodded slightly, and after a few seconds of silence, he smiled and said, "Then have you considered it, the technical difficulty here." ”

Ye Ming: "If you only talk about brain-computer, the most difficult thing is the acquisition and signal processing of brainwave signals. ”

"Yes!" Professor Tang nodded: "If you collect, whether it is a dry electrode, a wet electrode or an implanted electrode, there are disadvantages, the first two have too much signal noise, and the latter implantation itself is unstable, which is a difficult point in engineering." ”

"The problem of signal processing is reflected in the denoising and information conversion speed - if you have any understanding, you will understand that the information collected through the electrodes is not synchronized with the human 'mind', and it is necessary to take a beat slower, as you can see in the demonstration of those bionic robotic arms."

"Of course, the direction of solving these problems is to use AI to assist, which can be regarded as the mainstream direction."

After Professor Tang finished speaking, he smiled slightly: "So what problems do you think you can solve?" ”

"Forehead ......"

Ye Ming really wanted to say that these are not a problem for my requirements.

Because what he collects is not a brainwave signal, but a precise discharge of bioelectricity under Ita's control.

But he believes that with Ita's help, he will be able to find the most accurate expression of EEG signals.

Ye Ming bit his lower lip slightly, and in silence, his brows furrowed deeply.

After a few moments, he whispered, "I think I should be able to fix the problem of signal noise reduction." At the very least, I can control one of the robots in my team to move forward and backward, or control my robotic arm to say hello. ”

Professor Tang's eyes lit up instantly.

As for Ma Jun and Yang Chaoxiong, they looked at the teacher at the same time.

Including Ye Ming, he also looked at Professor Tang with burning eyes.

Facing everyone's eyes, Professor Tang pondered for a moment and then smiled lightly: "Just talk about not practicing fake tricks, in this way, you are also a member of our group anyway." ”

Ye Ming smiled embarrassedly.

"You start with a brain-computer acquisition design - don't tell me you haven't thought about it."

"I've thought about it."

"That's good, you make a plan and I'll take a look, and then start with cheap equipment, see the effect first, if it really works, then let's take a good look at this topic!" Professor Tang looked at Ye Ming: "What do you think?" ”

"Hmm!" Ye Ming nodded heavily.

As long as it doesn't cost him money, it's easy to say anything.
