Chapter 144 This is enviable!(1/2)
‘Effective and irrelevant carry screening method’ is not a formula, a theorem, nor other definite thing, but a summary ‘method’.
The method is just to point out the direction.
It's like someone is going to Daxinganling from the south, and he doesn't know how to go, but he gets information when asking for directions-
Go north and keep walking!
It is theoretically correct to go north, but how to find the Great Xing'an Mountains needs to be constantly corrected, otherwise you may cross the grassland and go all the way to Siberia.
The meaning is the same.
‘Effective and irrelevant carry screening method’ is a method that eliminates harmfulness through comparison and elimination, but when it comes to specific situations, we still need to think about the conditions step by step and improve the entire process.
Any method that can cover multiple fields is actually very vague, because there is no way to express it accurately.
Zhao Yi proved that the 'effective and irrelevant carry screening method' is equivalent to providing people in the world with a new research method and direction, but there are still many difficulties in developing a Rubik's Cube calculator based on this method.
The paper "effective and unrelated carry screening method" was published, and then went to Yanhua University to give a speech. In the past two months, there were only "imperfect Rubik's Cube calculators" on the market. The difference is not 100,800 miles away from the "perfect Rubik's Cube calculator", but the gap is still relatively large, even bigger than Wudao's "imperfect Rubik's Cube calculator".
Any company that develops a magic cube algorithm alone requires a lot of manpower and time.
Compared with labor costs, the time cost will be greater.
The source code of the Rubik's Cube calculator designed by Zhao Yi is the most concise, and it is less than 10,000 lines together. When a team conducts research together, the methods and directions they can think of may not be accurate. Perhaps eight out of ten people are wrong, and most of the work becomes useless.
Therefore, compared with the labor and time cost required for R&D, the price of hundreds of thousands of dollars is not expensive.
Of course.
If a company can wait and only let a few people study it, one year, two years, or even longer, it can slowly improve the algorithm.
After deducting the time cost, the labor cost is not much, and perhaps only one needs to pay a salary of 100,000 US dollars.
Everything is uncertain.
Zhao Yi's bottom line in the source code of the Rubik's Cube calculator is $600,000.
If it is a domestic company that buys it, it can be relatively cheaper, which does not involve national honors, because domestic companies will not rush to buy a Rubik's Cube algorithm. It must be used in their own research and development in the future, or simply study and learn methods in the source code.
Fruit companies are different.
Fruit companies are about to release new mobile phones, and they are a mobile phone with the symbol of the times. Time cost is more important to them than labor cost.
Six hundred thousand dollars is not expensive.
Zhao Yi really couldn't understand why the fruit company was posing the attitude of "love to sell but not to sell".
Why?
Two words: self-confidence.
Fruit companies are very confident in their R&D capabilities. When they don’t know the ‘effective and unrelated carry screening method’, they really don’t have the confidence to develop the Rubik’s Cube algorithm.
But, already.
With a certain R&D direction, their technical department believes that after investing some manpower, they can develop it within a certain period of time. Think about it carefully, how complicated can a high school student study Rubik's cube algorithm?
It must be simple!
After having a predetermined direction, as long as you find the key points, you can almost do it.
In addition, the senior executives of the fruit company also lack a good impression of Zhao Yi.
The outside world thinks that Zhao Yi has received a million-dollar reward from the fruit company, so he thinks that the relationship between the two must be very big. The situation is exactly the opposite. Most people in the technical department of the fruit company have no good impression of Zhao Yi at all.
Having said that, who would have a good impression of the person who picked the wrong job for his or her job?
Zhao Yi not only picked mistakes, but also kept picking mistakes.
When Zhao Yi was presenting an award to promote it at the press conference in Jiangzhou, Zhao Yi simply broke through the operating system of the fruit computer on the spot and revealed a loophole in the driver, which caused several teams of the technical department to be deducted bonuses.
This kind of thing should have been said privately...
Anyway, the senior executives of Fruit Company think so, because their stock prices were affected and fell.
Such a guy...
Unless Ken comes to work in a fruit company, he will never have a good impression.
Want us to pay for the Rubik's Cube algorithm?
We have the world's top technology departments and have developed a closed mobile phone operating system. We might as well invest manpower to develop it yourself, and we will definitely be able to do it in a short time.
...
Zhao Yi didn't know about the fruit company, he just felt very unhappy.
He suddenly didn't want to sell it.
Zhao Yi stared at his robot and simply gave a summary of the program design work in recent times, unpacking, classifying and encrypting the codes designed by himself.
To sum up, include-
"Four-photo stereoscopic image analysis algorithm"
"Standard Image Analysis Pathfinding Algorithm"
"Flexible control of components combined with sensor data and machine vision"
Keyword grasp program call
The last one is an intelligent dialogue class, which is basically designed to design keywords so that the robot understands what it wants to do and calls related programs to execute.
Zhao Yi looked at the summary carefully and found that he could write several papers.
He gave up anyway.
If it is just a programming paper, it is actually meaningless and it is difficult to be ranked among top computer academic papers.
This is why computer papers are difficult to publish.
Computer programs are considered to be rules and methods of intellectual activities of the human brain. Pure program codes are not protected by patent laws. Only by completing the corresponding products can you register and obtain copyright.
The same is true for the paper publication.
Some related research on computer algorithms, as long as they are not groundbreaking, will be considered to be just ordinary code making, and it will be difficult to become a top academic journal.
"If the source code you created is sold, it may be sold for a lot of money, but it will definitely be a one-time job, and a confidentiality agreement will be signed."
"Trouble, and it won't sell much..."
Zhao Yi thought.
Although the algorithm he studied is very practical, because it is not protected by patent rights, it is ultimately an algorithm. Many computer-related companies can develop it as long as they know the purpose of implementation, invest manpower and material resources, and sell the source code directly, and will not sell it at a high price.
This is not a direct product after all.
In addition, it is very important that both at home and abroad know that artificial intelligence is the general direction, but most companies in the field of artificial intelligence are in a state of continuous losses and have been relying on financing to continue their lives, including the world interaction where Zhang Zhen is located.
Artificial intelligence represents the future, but not the present.
It is really hard to say how much it will cost to buy functional codes for a company that is constantly losing money.
Zhao Yi simply decided not to sell it.
He is not short of money.
At the same time, he also knew that selling source code is the least efficient way, and the best way to find someone to realize value together.
Now there are some "intelligent algorithm service providers". The core is either a supercomputing center or a core R&D team, focusing on one or two top intelligent R&D projects, which can cover and expand to a company. The company focuses on the core research of the team and provides customized algorithms and intelligent technology services to customers in need.
Yuan Zhongchen’s Yutu Robot will be such a company in the future. They provide underlying robot operating systems and provide customers with technical needs for customized functions.
In addition, some companies provide basic technologies such as facial recognition, intelligent dialogue, etc.
etc.
These are the ‘upper-level’ companies in the field of artificial intelligence.
Those companies selling smart products are just downstream companies. They need upstream companies to provide technical support to ensure the functions and security of the products.
"never mind!"
"Let's talk about it later!"
Zhao Yi thought about it and decided to continue to improve the robot. He did not joke with Lin Xiaoqing, Zhao Linlin and others. His goal was to build an intelligent robot that could be a security guard, nanny, and housekeeper.
Although the goal sounds very far away, as long as you slowly improve the functions, you will always get closer and closer!
...
After the final exam introduction, senior high school students have three days off and will continue to attend school classes.
This is a tutoring before the winter vacation.
The tutoring will last for ten days and will not be officially on holiday until the 24th day of the first lunar month. Then, around the seventh day of the year after the New Year, the third year of high school will be returned to school, and the holidays will be about two weeks together.
Compared with other schools, No. 13 Middle School is already very good.
In fact, No. 13 Middle School originally planned to give you a few more days of classes to shorten the holiday to one week. The embarrassing place is here. Some time ago, the school has been promoting quality education.
Can quality education make up for a long time?
Wang Chengmin and Li Lisheng felt that they were cheated by him. It was reported that the 13th Middle School had only one week off during the winter vacation. Wasn’t the previous publicity all wasted?
To be continued...
