Can machine reading comprehension transcend humans? CCTV “Tactic People” staged “Life and Death”

Deep thinking about the ingenuity of robots boarding CCTV’s “tactfulness”, can artificial intelligence reverse life and death?

“After many years, Colonel Aureliano stood in front of the firing squad and remembered the distant afternoon where his father took him to visit the ice.”< /p>

In Marquez’s pen, the ice brought by the Gypsies opened the door to the new world for Macondo, because this “ice block”, the isolated village of Macondo, began to associate with modern civilization. It quickly turned to prosperity and quickly declined.

If the “ice block” brought by the Gypsies is the fire of the Macedo civilization and the new world, then it seems that artificial intelligence may be the fascinating human being into the next technological civilization. The crystal, the “ice cube” that exudes magic.

The only difference is that we need to become a Gypsy and make that piece of ice.

The timeline has been pulled back to the present. A few days ago, at the 2019 World Artificial Intelligence Conference, Ma Yun and Musk’s “Double-horse dialogue” was particularly eye-catching, and the two talked about artificial intelligence. It is also talked about in the workshop.

As a successful businessman, Ma Yun is undoubtedly an “optimist”. Unlike Musk, who wants to be on Mars, Ma Yun is obviously more concerned about the Earth. He believes that human beings should devote all resources to ocean governance. Such as sustainable development initiatives. In addition, Ma Yun believes that people will win the day, he is not worried about the so-called “artificial intelligence threat theory.”

As a fan of “Silicon Valley Iron Man” and “Mars Immigrant”, all of Musk’s commercial products serve his dreams, including his electric sports car. He believes that human beings should invest 1% of GDP in space exploration. Whether it is the “unsustainable” of the earth or the artificial intelligence threats to be faced in the future, it will be a wise choice to move to Mars as soon as possible.

It is undeniable that at that moment, the two people’s views produced a “fierce” confrontation at the artificial intelligence conference, and the scene was once paralyzed. But in fact, in the proposition “whether artificial intelligence can outperform human beings”, Ma Yun and Musk actually represent two opposing views in the world. It is difficult to tell who is right or wrong before the future.

If people and machines have to be divided, it is better to understand the current state of artificial intelligence development: In 2019, how far has artificial intelligence developed? Is it a tool to stop stagnation as a story-telling investment, or is the technology constantly changing and gradually moving towards the scene?


“When artificial intelligenceCan go to the ring, only worthy of the gold belt”

Boxers want to get a gold belt that is never as simple as waving their fists against the air. They need to go to the ring and use the amazing strength to complete the simplest direct comparison.

The Go Master “Master” is the trumpet of AlphaGo.

After AlphaGo defeated Li Shishi, the top player of the human top in 3-1, he retired and almost all the masters of the human Go in the name of “Master” and won “60:0”. The proud record.

The year is 2016. As the highest crystallization of human wisdom, Go has cast a little shadow for the first time since its birth for thousands of years. Chess Saint Nie Weiping said that there may be “Go God”, but our Life still has to continue.

In 2017, AlphaGo, who played tens of thousands of games with himself, once again made a comeback, challenging the world’s Go champion, the last highland of human Go, Ke Jie nine.

A few days before the game, Ke Jie, who was challenged, wrote this sentence on his Weibo: AlphaGo, you may have won Li Shishi, but you don’t necessarily win me. The heart of the 19-year-old genius boy attracted a lot of comments from netizens. Looked out, this boy, wants to be his own God.

After the game, the young Ke Jie shed tears of sorrow and grief. He took off his glasses and held his eyes tightly with his long fingers. Perhaps he was afraid that his tears would drop on the board and destroy the AlphaGo system.

The author is one of the witnesses of this “century war”. After the live broadcast, the author’s nose was sour, and he wrote such a phrase in the circle of friends: After many years, Ke Jie nine paragraphs faced the robotic firing squad, remembered The distant afternoon when he first faced AlphaGo.

When time came to 2019, AlphaGo, who played all over the world, has already announced his retirement, but his team’s behind-the-scenes research on artificial intelligence technologies such as deep learning and neural networks continues.

In contrast to the competitive nature of Go, in other areas, such as medical care, the development and application of artificial intelligence has made some breakthroughs.

No matter how you look at it, this seems to be the best era of artificial intelligence.

“When artificial intelligence goes to the ground, you can race against life”

In addition to playing chess, what aspects can artificial intelligence be applied to?

The idea of ​​health, medical care, curing cancer and even extending human life is the first to enter our heads.

The global cancer data of 2018 shows that in 2018, there are 18.1 million new cases of cancer worldwide, with deaths reachingIt is 9.6 million. In China, there is one cancer patient per 65 people. More than 4 million people are diagnosed with cancer every year. More than 10,000 people diagnose cancer every day, and more than 5 people die of cancer every minute.

There is no doubt that cancer has become the number one public enemy of mankind.

After the cancer treatment technology matures, regular early screening is a key factor in determining the life and death of cancer patients.

Clinic screening is simple, but it’s hard. In the case of cervical cancer, every second in the world, one woman died of cervical cancer every 2 minutes. The best way to attack cervical cancer, the second most common cancer in women, is to treat it before the precancerous lesions of the cervical cancer. Early screening for early screening, the cure rate of cervical cancer can be as high as 90%. However, patients with advanced cervical cancer have only a 3% chance of survival. However, in China, the screening rate of cervical cancer in women is still far below the 80% coverage requirement required by the Women’s Development Program (2011-2020).

For example, in the grassroots areas of Shangrao, Jiangxi, China, about 2.2 million of the 3.31 million resident female population need to be screened for cervical cancer, but only five doctors have screening capabilities in the city. He Weihua, a pathologist from the Basic Hospital of Shangrao in Jiangxi, lamented: “If all the doctors complete the early screening task, it will take about 70 years to complete the screening task.”

Obviously, the main reason is the gap in the pathologist, and it takes more than 8 years to develop a new pathologist.

In such a situation, can artificial intelligence help humans reverse the balance between life and death and improve the early screening rate of cervical cancer?

Not long ago, CCTV set up such a “human-machine game”, for the first time, let the early screening of cancer early artificial intelligence into the public’s field of vision, on-site inspection of artificial intelligence how to reverse the balance of life and death, and The “Tactic People” column was broadcast.

“Shouyifang” is the top 10 pathologists in human beings. They are from well-known top three hospitals such as Union Hospital, Beijing Friendship Hospital, Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital affiliated to Zhejiang University Medical College and Peking University People’s Hospital. The “challenge” comes from a team of thought-provoking artificial intelligence products: iDeepWise.AI – Ingenuity Robot.

In the program, Dr. He Weihua, with the help of iDeepWise.AI-Intelligence Robot, competed with 10 senior pathologists to judge 30 cervical cell samples and test the screening ability of artificial intelligence.

The results of the field show that through the iDeepWise.AI-Intelligent robot, the grassroots doctor can achieve the “one to ten” and give the same diagnosis results with the senior pathologist in the same time.

At the program site, the executive director of the China Anti-Cancer Association, the chairman of the Chinese Pathology Society, Bu Hong, a professor of pathology at the West China Hospital of Sichuan University, became a witness.

Professor Bu Hong explained on the spot: “The Department of Pathology serves all the clinical departments of the hospital and is known as a doctor’s doctor. Pathology is closely related to the prevention of tumors. For a long time in the past, we can’t talk about regular early screening of the tumor, only to suspect that there is a tumor to go to screening. Today’s medical technology allows us to detect cancer early, but it takes a lot of time for the pathologist to observe and identify through the microscope.

Finding diseased cells in tens of thousands of cells, the pathologist’s job is like a needle in a haystack, and the AI ​​system can be said to send the “needle” to the doctor.

Artificial intelligence, will it be the

The iDeepWise.AI system can exclude negative cells one by one, and show the cells in question to the doctor. The doctor can easily determine whether the cells are damaged or not, and shorten the screening time.

This allows the doctor to return to the essential work of diagnosis, rather than spending a lot of time looking for negative cells to alleviate the shortage of existing pathologists.

Professor Bu Hong said with a smile: “The pathological diagnosis relies heavily on the doctor’s experience, but the pathologist has a high-intensity workload. There is a saying in the industry that when the pathologist has enough experience, the doctor should also Suffering from cataracts, but artificial intelligence can continue to learn and accumulate, it is a ‘dead doctor’.”

The key point is that, as the “dead doctor”, what artificial intelligence technology is iDeepWise.AI?

In fact, the wisdom of AlphaGo comes from the master of Go, and the original wisdom of the ingenuity robot comes from the human doctor. The foundation of iDeepWise.AI system learning comes from a deep thought of the 1.2 million cervical cell sample database, which will grow nearly a thousand samples every day.

Deep thinking AI In addition to learning a million grades of high-quality sample data, it also carried out a large number of AI core level algorithm innovations, its adaptive multi-production methods and scanning equipment, through fusion deep learning, image instance segmentation, Artificial intelligence technology such as migration learning and visual semantic understanding to achieve automatic cervical cytology-assisted screening, which can be used to read liquid-based cytology slides such as TCT (membrane type), LCT (sedimentation), and TLT (centrifugation). Reliable test results.

Taking the Herlev dataset, the most authoritative cervical cell image published worldwide, as an example, the best result on this dataset is the latest paper from the National Institute of NIH, and deep thinking about the artificial intelligence team.The new AI algorithm completely exceeds the above results under the same data set and the same evaluation criteria, and the classification accuracy in the key indicator cell category is 99.3%, reaching the world’s best result in the data set.

After a large number of clinical samples, the iDeepwise.AI CIAS system significantly improved the detection sensitivity of ASCUS and above lesions, significantly reduced the false negative rate, and greatly reduced the missed diagnosis. The sensitivity of squamous cell lesions was 99.4%. The sexuality was 98.9%, the sensitivity to glandular cells was about 97.9%, the specificity was about 93.4%, the negative rate was 81.19%, and the false negative rate was as low as 0.006%.

It is worth mentioning that the deep thinking artificial intelligence cervical cancer assisted screening system is the only AI product in China that can effectively recognize glandular cell abnormalities.

In addition to a series of first-hand algorithms, there are many breakthroughs in AI medical core technology.

Under the deep thinking of the self-developed medical-specific AI chip and pathological cytology AI algorithm model, the microscope and pathological scanner are both “installed” in the terminal and the cloud “artificial intelligence brain”, which can simultaneously process 480 concurrently. Smear smear, complete 70,000 cell interpretations of a single smear in 60 seconds. Its landing application is very suitable for the national conditions, Pratt & Whitney, the majority of grassroots hospitals, to solve the problem of imbalanced medical resources.

According to the relevant person in charge, “At present, the deep thinking about artificial intelligence cervical cancer screening system has been in hundreds of hospitals, including more than 30 top three hospitals, such as Shanghai Fudan University Cancer Hospital, Zhejiang University Affiliated A hospital and other hospitals have applied to provide AI cervical cancer early screening services for thousands of users.” At the end of CCTV’s “Tactile Excellence” column, Dr. Yang Zhiming, the founder of the CCTV, said with firmness: “Our vision It is the use of artificial intelligence technology to reverse the balance between life and death, ‘smart’ respects life.”

Three blocks of ice, not a cold day

From AlphaGo and the deep thinking of the ingenuity robot, we can easily see that artificial intelligence has indeed surpassed humans in the field of complicated calculation and large amount of information. But at present, when artificial intelligence moves toward the scene, it is ultimately dominated by humans.

AI can save mankind from complicated monotony and even boring work. It is only the first step to improve work efficiency. The second step is that human beings can finally put more energy into the improvement of professional skills. The realization of self-worth.

For example, think of the robot as a pathologist. For doctors, AI is responsible for “harvesting needles” and quickly screening for diseased cells, while doctors make the final decision to form a complete diagnostic system. This will be a liberation and change for the medical industry.

So, artificial intelligence is so good, we are notIt can be said that we have successfully created “ice cubes”, which can open the door to the new world of mankind?

In fact, artificial intelligence still has a long way to go. In view of the current level of human technology, we are still in the stage of “artificial intelligence”, and we want to achieve “strong artificial intelligence” and let AI be beautiful. The brain still has a long way to go.

Fortunately, human beings have always been brave in exploring the unknown and have never stopped.

And what we witnessed today, praised; even eliminated, abandoned, will be without exception, become a splendid treasure in human civilization.
