At the end of August 2013, students were already on their way back to school.

Happy times are always short-lived, and nearly two months of vacation seem to be just a blink of an eye, and the balance is already insufficient to top up.

Experiments, competitions, and papers are all smooth sailing, Meng Fanqi is still very busy this summer.

It's just that during this time, I mainly worked hard in the rental house, and I didn't go to Dean Fu again.

One is because the summer vacation is still a holiday after all, although Meng Fanqi is also very clear that for a professor like Dean Fu who has administrative work, has high self-requirements, and is more focused on academics themselves. Holidays are definitely a thing, and most of them can still be seen in the office of the dean of the Academy.

The second reason is that I really don't want to face it.

Dean Fu has a very old-fashioned style on academic issues. I don't care about seniority, and I don't care about the qualifications and identity of the other party.

So when we first met, I didn't even ask for my name.

This also led to the last time, when Dean Fu suddenly asked about his situation, he was particularly abrupt.

After all, they had also gotten along and communicated many times, and Meng Fanqi guessed at that time that Dean Fu was in love with talent and wanted to solve professional problems for himself.

Although he was afraid of trouble to his parents, Meng Fanqi quickly went to complete the suspension of school.

On the one hand, he naturally didn't want to affect Dean Fu's own promotion, and on the other hand, it was actually more because Meng Fanqi had already planned the development route for the next few years.

If you want to make up for your shortcomings in AI and computer-related fields, even if you are reborn, you still have a lot of knowledge and courses to make up.

Now there is actually no need to study in this school, this time, Meng Fanqi did not plan to return to school, he had other plans.

THE IMAGENET COMPETITION IS A PLATFORM FOR WORLD-CLASS UNIVERSITIES, AND AFTER THIS COMPETITION, MENG FANQI IS CONFIDENT THAT THE TECH GIANTS LED BY GOOGLE WILL COME TO THE DOOR.

With the help of Google's platform and resources, this is extremely beneficial to establish the historical position of many directions in its early days, and it can even be said to be the best choice.

If you do that, you will have to study in the United States in the future.

Meng Fanqi does not plan to follow the example of Bill Gates who dropped out of school to start a business, in his opinion, such a life is too tiring. Since I have to send so many papers, how can I not get the degree I should get?

Among the many options in the United States, Stanford is currently Meng's favorite choice.

From his current perspective, Stanford's comprehensive conditions can be said to be the best in the United States.

First of all, in terms of discipline level, Stanford's computer, mechanical and IT are among the top three in the United States, and it can even be said that the first level is in line with their own direction and future employment and entrepreneurship plans.

Second, Stanford is right next to Silicon Valley, which not only allows him to juggle his studies with his early research work at Google. There are countless scientific and technological innovation enterprises in the vicinity, and Stanford alumni who love entrepreneurship, which are very precious leeks for the application, dissemination and sales of many algorithms in his future.

There is another one, that is, Stanford is also the organizer of this event, and the style of learning advocates freedom. It meets his needs and best understands the value of his algorithm, and there is a high probability that he will be willing to accept his admission.

Now that he had such a plan, Meng Fanqi felt that it was difficult for him to answer and face Dean Fu's kindness.

Since he had already received a lot of help and guidance, he didn't know how to say no to Dean Fu's help and tell him that he was ready to leave the school.

Suddenly, Meng Fanqi felt that Dean Fu was a bit like his father.

Yenching Electric Power University is not a computer powerhouse, so he never imagined that he would receive such crucial and powerful help here when he returned.

Although the time spent together is short, the content of the conversation rarely involves non-academic content. But such an indifferent friendship makes the relationship more pure and flawless.

After a few weeks, Dean Fu's office doesn't seem to have changed.

After meeting Meng Fanqi, he didn't mention anything about what happened during this time.

"How's it going, what's the latest whimsy?"

Everything was as usual, which made Meng Fanqi breathe a sigh of relief.

"I haven't done any further research lately, but I've tried my best to sort out and polish everything I've discussed with you before. The experiments were almost completed, and the results were basically exactly the same as expected. Some of the things that came up were as you predicted. ”

After all, AI is still a more practice-oriented discipline, and no matter how good the theory is, the audience will inevitably be much narrower. It is difficult to pay attention to it, after all, there are many people in the AI community who only look at one or two numbers in the results when they read a paper.

"During this time, I mainly wrote these contents into a thesis, so I delayed a lot of time."

"Seeing that you're holding such a thick stack of paper, you can already guess it." Dean Fu smiled, "At this point, I still appreciate you very much." ”

"If you have a good idea, you should first understand it carefully, rather than rushing to write it out and submit it. Good things need to be carefully considered, and don't hastily carve the best raw materials. ”

Meng Fanqi blushed when he heard this, he was not in a hurry to write it because he was ready to wait until he had attention before sending it, but he didn't expect to be praised for it, he was really ashamed.

"You can take a look at it, and give me some pointers if it's convenient."

"Why are there so many?" Dean Fu took the paper and started it, suddenly felt a sinking feeling, and estimated the thickness, "This will cost at least a hundred pieces of paper." ”

During this period of time, the things that Meng Fanqi and Dean Fu have discussed and studied are distributed in many directions, and they are all parts that he does not understand enough.

Therefore, what Dean Fu knew was only a small part of the whole content, and now he suddenly saw so much, and it was inevitable to be surprised.

After all, Dean Fu is not a major in this area, and in his opinion, these problems still have many things in common, but he never expected to be written into so many papers.

If you look at the binding again, it's nearly ten.

"I've consulted you for the details, so you don't have to look at it in detail. This time, I will bring the finished manuscript so that you can take a look at it. After all, there are quite a few of them with your name written on them, so you still need to confirm them officially. ”

When Meng Fanqi was talking, Dean Fu had also seen that the three or four articles above had added his name in the author column.

"I'm a professor in the Department of Mathematics, and I'm not your mentor, so what do you do with this name?" Dean Fu understood Meng Fanqi's intentions, if it was some tattered water, his name would naturally be added to rub off on the prestige of his academician disciple.

But he probably knows the level of Meng Fanqi's papers.

Even if it is because of the wrong major, the terrifying impact of these articles is greatly underestimated. In terms of the quality of the article itself, it is already a good work.

Mo said that the graduate and doctoral students he has taught are counted as his classmates and himself. I can't find anyone who can renovate all the mainstream tasks in such a large field of computer vision in such a short period of time.
