Preface
Many people believe that in the fourth technological revolution, artificial intelligence will completely change the world like the steam engine, internal combustion engine and Internet technology.
So then again, do you know who is the most recognized AI master at the moment?
The answer is, a Chinese - He Kaiming!
This is not for the Chinese to entertain themselves and entertain themselves, but to be recognized by the world.
On the list of the most influential scholars in artificial intelligence in 2022, He Kaiming has been recognized by the world as the most dynamic top scholar, and can be called the god of artificial intelligence in all mankind!
There are 21 subfields of artificial intelligence in the world, about 250,000 scientists, and it is necessary to select the top of 21 subfields among hundreds of thousands of scientists, and then rank the top ten in the world.
And He Kaiming, as a Chinese scientist, won the first place in one fell swoop.
So, who is He Kaiming, and what are the legends of his life?
Genius Boy
He Kaiming was born in Guangzhou, because his parents are executives in the company, He Kaiming, whose family conditions are quite superior, has received a good education since he was a child.
But to be honest, He Kaiming didn't have much interest in physics in his childhood, but had a soft spot for painting.
When he was in the Children's Palace, in order to draw a good picture, He Kaiming was often able to observe and paint works for hours on end, as if no one was around.
Similarly, in addition to being very attentive in painting, He Kaiming is also a child who can endure to solve problems in school.
And, under the education of his parents, He Kaiming established his first goal since he was a child, that is, to go to Tsinghua University!
Speaking of which, many Chinese students may have set the goal of being admitted to Tsinghua University and Peking University the moment they stepped into the school, but unfortunately, these two top universities are not so easy to get into, and most people can only think about it in their dreams.
But He Kaiming is serious, and he also has this capital.
He Kaiming is introverted, but he has a lot of perseverance, no matter how difficult the problem is, he can also dive into it and think about it seriously. Therefore, his academic performance has always been excellent, and his grades are stable, and he has always been a top student in school.
Later, during high school, He Kaiming was exposed to physics again.
To be honest, for many students, physics is an extremely headache for them, because there are so many things involved in this subject, such as mathematics, no, that's really not.
However, He Kaiming has a soft spot for physics and likes to study physics very much, not only often using spare time to study some physics problems with teachers in school, but also buying a lot of related books and tirelessly absorbing knowledge.
Among them, He Kaiming is most interested in engineering knowledge in physics, and by relying on extremely solid research, he actually won the first prize in the National Physics Competition in high school!
This award is not only a high honor, but also has a privilege, that is, you can be directly admitted to Tsinghua University!
It stands to reason that if this kind of thing were to be put on someone else, it would definitely wake up with a smile in a dream!
After all, even for the top students in key high schools in the country, if there is a choice, they are afraid that they don't want to go to the college entrance examination too much, right?
No way, who knows what accidents will happen during the college entrance examination?
However, He Kaiming categorically rejected the invitation of Tsinghua University, but insisted on taking the college entrance examination and proving himself with his strength.
So, what is He Kaiming's college entrance examination score?
In 2003, He Kaiming's results ranked first in Guangdong Province and was the top student in the college entrance examination that year!
At this moment, He Kaiming is really famous, not only Tsinghua University, but also other top universities have sent invitations.
However, He Kaiwen finally chose Tsinghua University, so what did He Kaiming experience at Tsinghua University?
Keep up the challenge
Originally, everyone thought that He Kaiming would choose the engineering and automation majors he was more familiar with after being admitted to Tsinghua University, but after coming to Tsinghua University, He Kaiming took the initiative to ask for more esoteric basic science classes.
And what is that basic science class?
The Tsinghua Basic Science Program was established in 1998 in order to improve the quality of students in the Department of Physics and Mathematics at Tsinghua University and to provide reserve talents for the Center for Advanced Study.
Xiong Jiajiong, Shang Rencheng, Bai Fengshan and Xu Zhan, four Taishan Beidou in Chinese physics and mathematics, jointly submitted to Tsinghua University the "Suggestions on Recruiting Classes in Accordance with Their Aptitude", hoping to establish a more advanced and scientific training model for top talents and cultivate outstanding science students.
The report was quickly taken seriously by the university, and the then president, Wang Dazhong, discussed it with a large number of well-known scholars, including Vice President Yu Shouwen, Vice President, and Vice President Yang Jiaqing, who was in charge of the "985 Project".
Eventually, starting in 1998, the Basic Science Class was established.
The basic science class consists of 18 subjects related to physics and mathematics, and later also covers some subjects such as chemistry and biology.
If Tsinghua University is a key university in the country, then the basic science class of Tsinghua University is the key class in this key university.
Choosing to come here, it can only be said that He Kaiming is a person who likes challenges.
But He Kaiming is really very good, even in the basic science class, he is still a top existence, and he can get a full scholarship every year.
The time came in 2007, and He Kaiming also came to the internship, so where was the unit where he interned?
The answer is Microsoft Research Asia!
It's also fate. Microsoft Research Asia was also established in 1998, and its main responsibility is also to be responsible for the research of computer fundamentals and applications.
As of 2018, the institute has more than 200 scientists, many of whom are internationally renowned computer masters, and has also cooperated with the Chinese government on postdoctoral training programs.
It's just that it is very difficult to get an internship here, and from 1998 to 2018, there were only about 20 Chinese college students who were qualified to come here for internships every year!
In the same way, it is a great honor to be qualified to come here for an internship.
And He Kaiming met his mentor Sun Jian here, who is also a generation of bigwigs in the computer industry!
As early as 2001, Professor Sun Jian became the first scholar to use Bayesian belief communication to solve the problem of stereoscopic vision.
In 2015, Sun Jian and his classmates, including He Kaiming, made a series of achievements in image recognition and won the championship of five international competitions that year!
The deep residual network they developed is the world's first deep neural network with hundreds of layers, which is a milestone achievement in the field of human deep learning!
In 2016, after Professor Sun left Microsoft Research, he became the chief scientist of Questyle Technology and the general leader of the Megvii Research project.
Professor Sun has also lived up to expectations, leading the team to develop a number of highly innovative computer vision technologies, such as mobile high-efficiency convolutional neural networks, open-source deep learning framework Tianyuan, and AI productivity platform Brain++.
It's a pity that in 2022, this Professor Sun has passed away!
As one of Professor Sun's protégés, He Kaiming also inherited the teacher's research direction, so what results has he achieved?
Out of the blue
He Kaiming is indeed the real pride of the sky.
In 2009, as a Chinese scholar, Kaiming He won the "Best Paper Award" of CVPR, one of the three major international conferences in the field of computer vision, for China for the first time.
After completing an internship with Microsoft Asia, Ho Kaiming, who successfully obtained a graduation certificate from Tsinghua University, did not terminate his studies, but went to Hong Kong Chinese University to continue his multimedia studies.
Here, He Kaiming continued to study hard and received guidance from Professor Tang Xiaoou.
In 2011, after successfully pursuing his PhD at the University of Hong Kong Chinese, Ho was invited back to Microsoft Research Asia to continue his tenure under Professor Sun Jian.
Relying on his own talent and hard work, He Kaiming and his team soon achieved quite dazzling results in the field of network research.
For example, in 2015, they relied on the research results of 152-layer deep residual network to successfully defeat the teams of Qualcomm, Google, Intel and other world-renowned companies in the image recognition competition that year, and won the championship, shocking the world!
However, in the second year, Ho Kaiming left Microsoft Research Asia for some reasons and was invited to join the Facebook AI Research Institute.
Then, in 2017, Kaiming He and his team proposed Mask R-CNN, which designed a simple and flexible framework that can perform instance segmentation on targets to more effectively detect objects in images and generate high-quality segmentation masks for instances.
Because of these outstanding contributions, Ho Kaiming became an outstanding alumnus of the Chinese University of Hong Kong that year, which was widely recognized by everyone.
Finally, at the 31st Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition Conference held in Salt Lake City in 2018, Kaiming He won the Youngest Scholar Award for his outstanding research in this field.
In the following years, He continued to conduct research on deep participation networks, and achieved a series of results, which were recognized by peers around the world.
Perhaps he cannot be called the first person to study computer networks, but everyone believes that he is likely to lead mankind into a new era and bring us a new future.
Here, I would like to pay tribute to all the scientists who have worked hard for the progress of human science and technology!
