Big Data makes the future full of possibilities. No more learning foreign languages?

Junior High School began to contact photography, from film camera to digital SLR, this year's 28-Year-old Chen Wei has been a friend around the recognition of the photography master, "for the photography of the forefront of things do not know." "But in the recently held ecological Civilization Guiyang International Forum," cloud Guizhou Big Data Conference Summit forum "," Big Data Age "author, British famous professor Victor Schoenberg a keynote speech, let Chen Wei listened dumbfounded.

In the future, the tradition of getting a picture by clicking a shutter will be overturned, the more "tidal" way is to use a large data camera, each shot to get a picture of a large blurred image, this photo collects all the scenes in the lens data, later in the computer in accordance with their own needs to focus on different objects, Then arbitrarily adjust the exposure of each point, and finally get the photos you want. Schoenberg said: "One shot many times, the big data is to let life have a better variety of options possible." ”

After listening to Schoenberg's speech, Chen Wei said to himself, "It's not enough."

People of different languages can just grab the phone and chat.

Chen Wei is surprised by far more than these, the combination of big data and language will collide what kind of spark? Chen Wei felt that language is the most flexible subject in the world, a sentence of different angles to understand that there are different meanings, large data may be difficult and language translation to catch the edge.

Hequan, academician of Chinese Academy of Engineering, said the use of some of the large accumulated data can be analyzed in different languages to express the meaning of human, "Microsoft is preparing to develop 26 languages to translate the mobile phone, in the future you call to speak Chinese, on the phone to click on the English mode, overseas friends to hear is already translated English." "He laughs," the future may not be hard to learn a foreign language. ”

The key point of the large data is the correlation analysis between the large data and the automatic translation of the online language. If a lot of data does not analyze the correlation, the so-called big data can only be a pile of rubbish, Schoenberg said.

For example, a company called Doulingo developed a free language learning website and a platform for crowdsourcing text translation, collected a large number of people's learning data, and found differences in the way of thinking between different languages through large data analysis. The results of such data analysis will greatly improve the accuracy and efficiency of the translation. After learning a certain amount of vocabulary and grammar knowledge, the Duolingo platform will allow different users to translate the same sentence in practice. The platform does not directly adopt a user's translation, rather than to each user on the same sentence of the translation similarity, the similarity is very high sentence content synthesis, determine the correct answer, in addition, the user also to other people's translation vote, so that Duolingo can synthetically consider the most appropriate translation.

Schoenberg that large data is a good way to solve the language barrier, and the improvement of data analysis ability will bring barrier-free communication and communication to the whole world.

Smarter city life is in sight

If a series of inventions such as telephone, electric light, airplane, automobile and so on in the industrial Revolution brought our life into the "automation" era, then life in the big data age will bring us into the era of "intellectualization".

"Home is a city's smallest unit, home intelligence reflects a city's level of wisdom." "China Putian strategic Investment and Financing Management Department general manager Chen Qingfang think." Home heating, air-conditioning, lighting and even curtains when switch, door and window how to access the security system, how different families to achieve visual contact, and even a room in different climatic conditions to play what kind of music is the most appropriate, all of which can be used smart home this system to solve. In the chenqing, this is the life of wisdom in the future city, but all these functions can be realized in the present.

"All cars in the future can be unmanned, as long as you set a good line." Schoenberg shared his expectations for the future of smarter cities. He said that Google currently has a large unmanned data vehicles, can be entered into the destination after the automatic driving, in the course of driving, the car constantly collect the width of the road, traffic, car distance around, obstacles and other data, and millions of times a second to run the data processing, To choose the best route to reach the destination.

Intelligent medicine will rise rapidly

"The sum of each person's genetic information in our cells is 6 times 10 23, more than the sum of the data now known in the world, and genetic information is the real big data." "The birth and death of human beings is a genetic decision, and large data studies of genes can provide support for effective disease prevention and treatment," said Wang Jian, founder of the Chinese giant gene. ”

Wang Jian said that today in China every 10 seconds a person because of cardio-cerebrovascular disease death, high education, high wages are basically equal to hypertension, high blood lipids, through genetic data analysis to reduce the incidence of cardio-cerebrovascular disease and mortality, may reduce the number to every 60 seconds only one person died.

In fact, the wisdom of medical care in the age of large data, it is through a large number of human data analysis, the trend of disease development forecast.

Chen Qingfang believes that the smart medical system can also provide better solutions for hospitals and nursing homes. He said, for example, elderly hands wearing a real-time monitoring of personal vital signs of the wrist watch, this watch and communication system contact, if the elderly burst all kinds of symptoms, such as lost, fall, you can quickly find the elderly through the wrist watch, and connect the ambulance agencies, the first time for the surrounding rescuers to provide professional assistance information support.

Breaking the data barrier to win the whole society

With big data comparable to gold today, Wugansha, dean of the Intel China Research Institute, believes that only by letting data flow can it nourish the data society and really play a role.

Wugansha For example, a western Security department has a list of terrorists, in order to understand the whereabouts of terrorists, they ask airlines to register records, airlines do not give, because this involves passenger privacy issues, in turn, airlines to reduce security risks to the security Department to the list of terrorists, The Security Department considers this a state secret refusal to provide.

Both sides are reluctant to give the data, but both have data requirements, which is actually a very classic question. In the big Data age today, Wugansha that the government and society must be able to share data to win. The future is likely to lead to many large data trading markets, and large data contains a large number of privacy, confidentiality information, what kind of large data information can be traded? The Government and society need to think ahead, study early and establish laws to restrain.

Hequan said the world would benefit from the government's Open data if the Government was able to properly open the data it controlled. McKinsey reckons that this would probably bring the global economy a dividend of 2.3 trillion to 5.3 trillion a year.

Ultimately, Hequan says, companies and governments that benefit from the big data industry, and for everyone, entering the era of big data, smarter cities, things networking, mobile internet and cloud computing, means making the future life full of possibilities.
