working day
At 7 in the morning, you wake up in a romantic, musical piano in G major, and it's a brand-new morning. The wake of the owl-shaped alarm clock on the nightstand makes waking up a happy thing.
This alarm clock is the wife from the Big Data home sale will come back from the gadget. Every day, the alarm clock will automatically change according to your mood. Many years ago, it might have been hard to imagine how elusive things like mood could be captured by outsiders without expressing themselves. However, the owl is able to analyze your friends ' online chats the day before, or to calculate your recent tweets, and guess the joys and sorrows of your time. Yesterday, a friend in the circle of friends uploaded a piece of Beethoven piano, elegant and beautiful, you reply to a "praise", so this morning to hear this classic G major is not surprising.
You hum the music to get up. The room senses the signal that you get up, the curtains slowly pull open, the golden sun shines into the bedroom. The aroma of coffee floated from the kitchen and the kitchen appliance had just made a delicious breakfast.
While you're eating breakfast, watch the news on TV. The TV shows are personalized, intelligent, and are now being reported as influenza outbreaks. The host pointed to the dynamic map of the current area affected by the flu, analyzed the transmission path of influenza, the future development trend, just like the weather broadcast. On the map, public health agencies are at a glance at the deployment of influenza. It is reassuring that, because of the timely control, the flu did not bring about a wide range of adverse effects.
Another news story is about the typhoon attacks and the progress of the relief efforts. Through the comprehensive data platform, meteorological, civil affairs, traffic police and hospitals and other dozens of departments formed a linkage mechanism, greatly shortened the rescue time. Some fishermen have been stranded at sea by the typhoon, and the disaster relief office has helped them find the nearest haven through data positioning. "Fortunately, we now have these technical means, otherwise delay a minute more, the danger of the people in the affected areas will be increased by one point." "You can't help making such a feeling.
The TV reminds you that it's time to go to work. So you tidied up your briefcase, kissed your sleeping wife and child's forehead, and walked out of the house.
When you press a button on your phone, the new car slowly drives out of the garage and opens up to your eyes. This is an automatic car, a reward for your promotion. When you first bought the car, your father was worried that he might not be safe enough. It was later discovered that such fears were completely unnecessary. Compared with human driving, this self-driving car not only detects everything within a 360-degree range, including its distance, speed and temperature, but also knows how to steer clear of other drivers ' visual blind spots and predict vehicles in all directions. You jokingly said to your father: "This car is more reliable than the old driver who has been driving many years, because it will not be tired, drunk or angry." ”
Car out of the door of the community, after a junction, it suddenly stopped, it originally detected 20 meters outside a rolling ball. Then he rushed out of a child, unaware of the danger he might face. When the child leaves the driveway, the car starts again smoothly.
Many years ago, when you were a child, your father bought the first car in the house. At that time, frequent traffic jams and rubbing accidents, in order to work not late, at least one hours in advance to start. Now, the self-driving car has planned a most time-saving route in advance of all road conditions, traffic lights, and historical data from home to company, when it is not on the road. It's a thoughtful reminder that today's drive is expected to be 22 minutes. It can even "greet" other self-driving cars and "talk" to traffic lights so that you don't waste your time in traffic jams or traffic lights.
8:30, you arrived at the extraordinary company on time. This is a credit rating company, and you have served 5 years as the first data scientist to be introduced into the company.
5 years ago, the main business of extraordinary companies was to help banks improve their credit rating systems. In the past, most banks had a single credit rating for applicants and could not make a full assessment. In order to solve the shortcomings of traditional rating methods, as the backbone of the department you and colleagues to study all night, hoping to establish a comprehensive large data credit rating model. You collect information about applicants from various sources, such as data on social networking sites, to evaluate people who have little or no credit histories, and the time to stay on a credit card site to speculate about a person's character and repayment sincerity. Your analysis of these vast amounts of information results in more than 70,000 indicators that can be measured against the applicant's behavior, and the entire credit rating process can be completed in 5 seconds.
The development and application of this credit rating model has fame the extraordinary company, and you have been promoted to the department manager for outstanding performance in the process.
You walk into the office and the computer desktop has automatically filtered out the information that needs to be processed today. It is like a thoughtful secretary who keeps your work organized and works closely with colleagues in the company and with partners around the world.
On a computer, the page you most often log on is not the company homepage, but the government's data-opening web site, because many of your company's predictive models need to download data from here. The site contains a wide variety of datasets ranging from census maps to bio-species conservation, and even publishes the data sets and the software tools needed for free downloading. One of the most downloaded data on the site is a map of 300,000 administrative districts with detailed information on roads, buildings, water systems and administrative boundaries. You have made a mobile app based on this map to show real estate prices in every community in the city. The technology for this application is not high, and all you can do is to aggregate data from different sources together. But this is the simple application after the release of popular acclaim, once ranked the city's mobile phone application download the top 10. This thing makes you feel quite fulfilled.
Today, you need to concentrate on preparing a speech. Because in the afternoon you need to report two large data project projects commissioned by the government at the company's high-level meeting: One is the social security anti-fraud system, through abnormal data analysis, automatic identification of false claims pensions, defrauding medical expenses, take insurance funds and other fraudulent acts, to ensure the security of the Fund, management, use good People's "life Money", "Save Money" The other is the environmental data collection system, by installing sensors on the car wheels, recording the traffic conditions, air quality and noise, temperature, humidity and so on in every corner of the city, so as to realize the mobile monitoring of the urban environment.
At the meeting, you use dynamic information visualization diagram to show your point of view, at any time to invoke a variety of data support program argument. At the end of the speech, you are excited to conclude: "Big data can help us and our customers get more intelligent predictions for the future, and only if we can foresee the future, we will meet the future!" "The leadership of the company affirms your plans and assumptions and encourages you to promote the application of large data in various projects as soon as possible to enhance the company's competitiveness." It seems that the next six months of big data exploration work will be full of challenges and fun.
Before and after the United Nations World Climate conference in Copenhagen in 2010, students at the MIT Sensing City Laboratory in the United States designed a bicycle aid-the Copenhagen wheel. The wheel has built-in detection devices that can detect road conditions, carbon monoxide, NOx and noise, temperature and humidity, and GPS devices help record location information. Using the Bluetooth module to associate with smartphones, you can refer to these real-time data to adjust your travel plans. More significant, you can also upload these data to help build a huge database of environmental conditions, map the city environment. The wheel also contains an engine, a group of batteries and an internal gear system, which can store energy when braking, and can release the kinetic energy of the store to help with cycling when it is uphill or running wearily.
The night of
life
After a full day of work, you can finally relax and get ready to go home. Out of the company, the days outside a little gloomy, a cool breeze mixed with small raindrops scraped over. You shrink your neck, press the car button on your phone, and it stops fast and accurately in front of you.
The car drove for a while and stopped at the door of a supermarket automatically. According to your life habits every month, it calculates that today is your regular food purchase day. Send you to the supermarket door, the car through large data navigation automatically to the underground parking lot. At the end of the day, there are a lot of people coming to the supermarket, but you don't have to worry about no parking, or the parking space is too far away and the parking lot needs to go a long way.
The food on the supermarket shelves is neatly arranged and orderly. When you visit the Organic food area, you see a new cereal that looks very nutritious. You scanned the two-dimensional code on the food package with your cell phone, the location of the cereal, the ingredients, the food safety recall records, and other buyers ' evaluation information were found on the phone screen, and you even discovered the next door neighbor's assessment of the product: "Our kids like to eat." "You will smile and decisively put it into the shopping basket." After a quick purchase of the family's food for the month, according to the rules of the years ago, you should go to the cashier checkout, but in today's supermarket has no checkout counter. When the goods are put into the shopping basket, the sensor can transfer the price of the goods and the information of the settlement to your mobile phone and generate an order. Once you have confirmed your order, you will be able to pay on your phone.
On the way home from the supermarket, when driving across a community street, you suddenly found two or three lights flashing flickering on the top of the head, you guess it may be a fault. You pick up your phone, take a picture of a street lamp, and upload it to the city's public platform--an application for public feedback. It automatically records the location of your photos and reports the damage to the street to the municipal facility Maintenance company. A few minutes later, you received a text message from the city construction Bureau, who told you that the street lights will be repaired tomorrow, and thank you for providing this clue as an enthusiastic citizen.
Home is 7 o'clock at night, the wife has already picked up the children from school, prepared a sumptuous delicious dinner. At the table, the wife talked about the experience of going to the Administrative Service Hall today. "Our unit plans to invest abroad, listening to colleagues said before the approval of the project to cover more than 70 chapters, run for several months to be able to do it, today I run a trip will be all done." You mean I'm not strong? The wife looks at you with a smile and begs for praise. You pretend to be puzzled amorous feelings to say: "The bad is not you, is our data scientist." There is no inter-departmental collaboration system that we have designed, you still have to have a department to stamp; without our online application system, just fill in the approval form is enough for a while. ”
After dinner, the wind outside seemed to stop. You decide to take your wife and children to walk and exercise in the Rose Park near the neighborhood, which is a daily necessity. People who go to the Rose Park are wearing a smart wrist strap, which, in addition to being a voucher for entering and leaving the park and gym, can also record the wearer's daily workout time and mileage. However, its function is more than this, its most powerful function is to put the wearer's heartbeat before the movement, blood pressure and other information uploaded to a public health database, calculated to accurately remind you of your physical condition and fit the range of motion: blue is needed to rest and reduce movement; green is appropriate for soothing sports such as walking and playing table tennis Red is a great sport for swimming, tennis and fitness. The popularity of this wrist band is an important part of a nationwide fitness program that helps you and your family's health in the healthiest state through timed exercise reminders and physical condition analysis.
The night is getting thicker and the day is coming to an end.
Before bedtime, the child is lying in bed listening to you tell a story. You feel, not as in the past to tell the Prince and Princess fairy tale, but to tell him a story of your childhood. It's hard to believe that when you were young you used to go to an ideal school, take different exams, fill out transcripts, awards, and family status sheets before you get the admission notice. Today's children are much happier, and they no longer need to be bothered by the test or the college entrance exam. Because the database records the various potential and personality traits of the child, it will tailor the education and training courses suitable for its development and recommend suitable schools.
Maybe some day in the future, our life is like this ... Look forward to ING.
