"Yu Bo, Wang Bo, long admiration, long admiration." Meng Fanqi greeted the two algorithm leaders in turn.

Li Yanhong said that the high-level of the research institute poured out the nest, which is a bit exaggerated, but these two are indeed heavyweights.

In particular, Wang Haifeng has always adhered to the field of deep learning in Baidu, and later achieved the position of the company's chief technology officer (CTO).

At the Wenxin Yiyan press conference, his appearance introduction even slightly pulled back some of the plummeting stock prices. It can be seen that its technical status is not low.

"I'm here today to demonstrate the effect of the algorithm, right?" Meng Fanqi still didn't know the psychological activities on Baidu's side, so he just thought that he wanted to show the effect and talk about the current interface situation.

"I sorted out the code a little, and today I will show a few people the speed and performance of reasoning, as for Mr. Li or the two of them, we can communicate directly on the spot."

"No problem, our researchers in the direction of testing are all stopped at hand, and they are all waiting for you." Wang Haifeng said with a smile.

"Huh?" Meng Fanqi was stunned for a moment, and then reacted, if his results were true, most of the work of this group of researchers in the detection algorithm in the past two years would basically be in vain.

It's like a currency devaluation, and I heard that the dollar in my hand is about to turn into a Zimbabwean currency, and I'm still doing a job of P, so let's rest.

The group came to the sixth floor, swiped the card to enter the area of the Deep Learning Research Institute, and saw a group of researchers staring at this side, and their eyes were about to pop out.

"Let's go to that conference room over there, let's take a look at the display inside." Li Yanhong pointed to a fully transparent glass room in the corner and said.

"No problem." Meng Fanqi said as he began to pull his computer out of his bag.

This time I came to the whiteness headquarters in advance, and it was definitely impossible to show the technical details and code, so I still had to use my own equipment.

Since the contract has not been signed yet, of course, it is enough to show these three high-level executives, and there is no need to care about those small soldiers outside.

The three leaders of Baidu are all vigorous and resolute personalities, and they do not have the habit of directing employees to subordinates.

Secretary Liu was left outside, and after entering the room, one of the three of them was tidying up the tables and chairs, and the other was adjusting the monitor, and Li Yanhong personally assisted Meng Fanqi in connecting the equipment.

This kind of atmosphere that is more technical and the management atmosphere is not so good gives people a good feeling, which is much better than instructing employees to do this and that.

"What I showed to the three of us this time is mainly the data results in the last chart. We ran the detection datasets that are now commonly used in international papers, and ran the two versions of the model I provided earlier on different image resolutions. ”

After all, the data table is not so reliable, anyone can write a table and make a PPT today to claim that their detection speed has reached hundreds of FPS, and there is a major breakthrough in performance.

The so-called ChatPPT is like this, prepare some pictures and videos in advance. You can pretend to be a linguistic intelligence and deceive people to invest.

I have deceived some rich people who don't understand technology, and there is indeed a chance. But it's not so easy to hide from the eyes of the three professional and technical experts in front of you.

"It's a VOC detection dataset, right?" Yu Kai once won the championship in the VOC competition, so he is naturally very familiar with this aspect, "07 or 12? ”

"I used 07+12 years of training + verification data to train the model, the test used the 07 test set, and the data we are showing now is also the 07 test set, and the 12 years of test data has not been officially announced."

Meng Fanqi's answer was fluent, which made Yu Kai's heart very shaken, so it seems that the other party is at least very familiar with the detection data.

"Okay, now you run the model and do an inference on about 5,000 pictures of the '07 test data. Let's take a look at how fast your algorithm runs. ”

"No problem." Meng Fanqi came to prepare this content today, and naturally everything is ready, just need to run, "Let's run a lightweight version with 320x320 resolution first." ”

When he said that there was no problem, Meng Fanqi had already pressed the button, and the program began to reason.

The progress bar skyrocketed, and by the time Meng Fanqi finished speaking, it had almost reached 30 percent.

"Damn, so fast?" Yu Kai subconsciously brought a verbal speech on the spot.

5,000 images is not much, but if you want to use the current first-class algorithm R-CNN to reason, you can't do it in a few hours.

The algorithm run by Meng Fanqi processes more than 200 pictures per second, and in more than 20 seconds, all the picture reasoning has been completed.

A hundredfold gap doesn't sound so exaggerated, but it's felt in time. Hours and tens of seconds make it feel even more shocking.

"Good! All right! Li Yanhong slapped his palm fiercely and applauded loudly. That's a blast! ”

Wang Haifeng frowned, pondering how this was done.

Yu Kai and Wang Haifeng are all thinking about the details and principles, and only Li Yanhong has already thought of the press conference.

When the time comes, at the press conference, I put a reasoning video of the world's top detection algorithm on the left side of my PPT, and put Meng Fanqi's algorithm on the right to reason.

It takes a few seconds on the left to process a picture, and the box chases the person.

On the right, hundreds of images flash in a second in a dazzling way, indulging in silky smoothness.

For another comparison, given five seconds, the left side might only process one or two, and the right side would go straight to more than a thousand.

Ignoring the performance and comparing the fastest version with the slower first-class method, a hundred times the difference suddenly becomes a thousand times.

A picture, contrasted with a dense thousand drawings put together. This visual contrast and shock is really cool!

"I'd love to start a development right away!" Robin Li's emotions came up, and it was the greatest pleasure in his life to release a technology that actually exceeded the industry's top level by more than 100 times, but unfortunately there were not many opportunities like this.

I have to admit that this quick-to-finish progress bar is much more impactful than a few numbers alone.

"This is so unscientific!" Wang Haifeng thought for a long time, "This is really unscientific. Can you see the results of your test? ”

"No problem, it's all in the folder under the directory when I reason. You can see that the creation date here is just now. Meng Fanqi clicked on the test results stored under the path and slowly slid them one by one.

The accuracy of each marquee on the picture is very high, and the number of missed detections and false detections is greatly reduced, which is much stronger than the existing algorithms of whiteness.

Yu Kai and Wang Haifeng looked at each other, and they both read the same thing from each other's eyes.

"What the hell is this genius?"
