"In the past, the champions were from the United States, this time it was China"

According to the Hong Kong "South China Morning Post" website reported on August 19, two teams from China won the highest honor in an important international artificial intelligence competition.

Huazhong University of Science and Technology announced on the 18th that the two teams of the school calculated the challenge in the 2022 map -MIT and Amazon's data chart analysis competitions -won the championship.

It is reported that Wang Qinggang, a member of the champion team and a doctoral student at Huazhong University of Science and Technology, said: "The achievements we have achieved are the result of collective efforts. We every week -sometimes every day -we must meet with new ideas, and based on experimental data Correct it. "

It is reported that the other two Chinese teams -from the National Defense University of Science and Technology and Huawei Technology Co., Ltd. -won the Innovation Award.

Figure computing challenge was founded in 2017 and attracted a series of academic institutions and enterprises including Nvidia, Lawrence Leroore National Laboratory, and Carnegie -Mellon University.

The organizer of this annual event requires participants to solve the most challenging issues in the industry or scientific research community.

It is reported that Wang Qinggang said: "For the first time we participated in this event in 2019, we noticed that all championships come from universities or companies in the United States. This inspires us to make breakthroughs."

In 2021, the map computing team of Huazhong University of Science and Technology won the championship in the event for the first time. The university went further this year, and two teams won the championship.

Wang Qinggang said: "(being rated as the champion) boosted the enthusiasm of the team members -especially undergraduate students." The head of Wang Qinggang's team was Zheng Long, an associate professor of the School of Computer Science and Technology of Huazhong University of Science and Technology.

It is reported that chart analysis is an emerging field of artificial intelligence computing. It aims to find connections between social media relations or a series of account history records.

Through high -speed computing, scientists can track the spread of epidemic diseases such as new coronary viruses, and police can track the flow of stolen money between different banks. According to industry experts, this technology can also be used in areas such as transportation navigation and national security.

It is reported that China has continued to make progress in the development of artificial intelligence in recent years. However, according to Liu Xiaoping, a researcher at the Chinese Academy of Sciences, China still needs to catch up.
