Chapter 153: Give that kid some strength! (23)

"Journal of Software?"

After hearing what Chen Dayue said, Xia Bican chuckled.

"You might as well submit this paper to a probability and statistics journal instead."

"What do you call this? Yes, it's a waste of natural resources."

The mocking and provocative expression on Xia Bican's face made Chen Dayue's veins pop out. If the wounds on both of their faces had not healed yet, given Chen Dayue's current mood, he would have made Xia Bican take two more Chen-style baseball punches.

"Then you can arrange it."

"I'll make the arrangements, so I can be the corresponding author this time!"

Xia Bican was just waiting for Chen Dayue to say this.

He agreed immediately, looking like no one else could do it better than him.

However, he was not actually coveting the position of corresponding author of this paper, but this was more like the rules of the seat teacher in the imperial examination.

Xia Bican became the corresponding author of Xu Qingshan's paper, which means that he is qualified to be on equal footing with Chen Dayue.

This qualification is not official.

It was simply that when the two of them were talking, Xia Bican could also identify himself as Teacher Xu Qingshan.

"Humph, would I snatch it from you?"

Chen Dayue snorted coldly and spoke.

"The person you contacted and the journal you found must be you. But if you are not good enough and are just a useless person who only eats and does not work, then I, Old Chen, actually do have some connections in the international computer field."

Chen Dayue looked at the crude lamb kidneys that were served, and when he saw Xia Bican pick it up and start to eat it, he complained with disdain.

Such words, spoken at this time, are bound to cause misunderstanding.

"You're the only one who can't eat anything, old rubbish."

These two old men have been fighting over Xu Qingshan's matter these past few days, and they have become accustomed to talking back to each other.

None of them noticed.

While the two of them were arguing, a diners nearby had already heard their ambiguous conversation.

Two old men, eating kidneys here and saying such things.

It's inevitable that people will think too much.

And, let’s be honest.

However, more than a decade later, people's perception of the concept of drifting everywhere was different from that of a certain southwestern city in Chengdu.

If we really want to talk about the current situation of drifting all over the country, we have to talk about the international metropolis of Beijing.

This thing is not popular in the Shanghai Stock Exchange.

But the capital city can be said to have a long history and even has its own unique culture.

For example, the bird holes in the toilets in the suburbs of Beijing.

For example, the Big Bird Ice Rink where people used to skate in Houhai.

For example, the Nantong Bar is full of literary and artistic atmosphere, but actually open and restrained.

More than ten years later, there are still people rowing in Houhai.

It's a bit perverted indeed.

But it also shows that Xu Qingshan's role is still very important, as he was able to bring two director-level professors together so closely.

Even if they were arguing, they were arguing about Xu Qingshan's belonging.

"If we really want to talk about this article, we have to rely on machine learning."

While Xia Bican was gnawing on his kidney viciously, he was carefully analyzing the direction of Xu Qingshan's paper.

“In the field of machine learning, the best journals I would say are definitely Journal of Machine Learning Research, Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence, International Journal of Computer Vision, and finally Machine Learning Journal.”

Xia Bican spoke seriously.

His expression was very sacred.

After all, the four he mentioned are considered the four top journals in the field of machine learning in the computer field.

Naturally, they are all SCI journals, and are world-class and highly recognized journals.

"Of course, TC, TFS, PAMI, TNN, Neural Computation, RL, Neural Computing are also good."

Chen Dayue listened to Xia Bican mention so many journal names.

He had not read much about machine learning and was not very familiar with these journals.

When Xia Bican said this, Chen Dayue also looked up to him a little.

“Do you know all the editorial board members of these journals?”

"do not know."

"What the hell are you talking about if I don't know you!"

Chen Dayue was speechless.

Xia Bican was about to grab a handful of red willow lamb skewers, but was snatched away by Chen Dayue.

"Hey, why are you in such a hurry? Why do you need to rob it?"

"Waste doesn't deserve to eat."

Chen Dayue looked at Xia Bican with contempt.

"I haven't even finished what I said!"

Xia Bican pursed his lips.

"Then finish your words and show your worth first."

"But I have published several articles in MLJ before, so I am considered a famous person there. If I am the correspondent, MLJ should be able to take a good look at it."

"Yes, yes, I think you don't need to eat this barbecue anymore!" Chen Dayue was furious.

How can this little bitch be so unconfident in doing things?
If this is not stable, then it would be better for Old Chen to risk his face.

"No, Lao Chen, do you have so little confidence in Qingshan?"

Xia Bican looked speechlessly at Chen Dayue, who was more anxious than Xu Qingshan's biological father.

If Xia Bican didn't know that Chen Dayue and Xu Qingshan had never met each other, he would have thought that Xu Qingshan was Chen Dayue's long-lost illegitimate son.

Are you so anxious when you hear it's not stable enough?

"Humph."

Chen Dayue was stunned after hearing what Xia Bican said, but did not respond.

"From my perspective, his paper is completely good. It's of a very high level and has a good direction. At least it's leading in the field. You know Zheng Qiu, right? He has set up an artificial intelligence research institute at Jiangdong University. In my opinion, a team of their level is already in the first echelon in terms of machine learning."

Xia Bican revealed the situation at Jiangdong University to Chen Dayue.

"But for Qingshan's paper, with Zheng Qiu, who is aiming for the Young Elite Scholar Award, leading the team, plus a few doctoral students from Jiangdong University and a bunch of graduate students, it will take at least a year to produce a first draft."

No matter how unreliable and fun Xia Bican may seem, he is still a teacher at Jingcheng University.

He will also be the future successor to the department head of the School of Information Science and Technology.

Naturally, they also have the necessary vision, pattern, and strength.

Chen Dayue nodded, understanding.

He had a new understanding of the strength and talent of his little disciple.

Xia Bican said this and it couldn't be false.

"Based on the quality and depth of his paper, it is inspiring and instructive in connecting to the network. Plus, with my communication, it will not be underestimated and will definitely be published in MLJ."

Xia Bican said this with full confidence.

However, his confidence came more from his recognition of Xu Qingshan.

This made Chen Dayue both relieved and speechless.

So the guarantee you gave me is based on the confidence of my disciple's strength?

What use are you, useless piece of shit?
The two of them ate and chatted, and discussed for a while.

"Old Chen, do you think we should give that kid some strength?"

Xia Bican's mouth was full of oil, and he felt something in his heart.

"Increase the intensity? How do we increase the intensity?"

Chen Dayue didn't take it seriously, thinking that Xia Bican wanted Xu Qingshan to study some special topic.

"I am watching Qingshan now. He should learn slowly and lay a good foundation first. Don't aim too high. Otherwise, if he gets stuck on a problem for too long, it will easily undermine his self-confidence and enthusiasm. I don't want him to become decadent just after entering the academic field."

Chen Dayue really has good intentions towards Xu Qingshan.

It feels like treating him as a personal disciple.

But in fact, whether in the academic field or in the teaching field, Chen Dayue can only be regarded as being in his prime.

It is still far from the level of accepting a closed disciple.

All we can say is that he really had high hopes for the talented Xu Qingshan.

"I didn't want him to think about any weird questions."

Xia Bican actually felt a little dissatisfied with Chen Dayue's protective training strategy.

Like.

Once Chen Dayue is sure that his paper can be published in an SCI journal, he will do his best to provide Xu Qingshan with stable support so that he does not have to worry about anything other than studying and researching.

But Xia Bican felt that he only needed to provide Xu Qingshan with a platform, space, and direction. For other things, Xu Qingshan still needed to touch and explore them himself.

One shelters you from wind and rain, but how can you see the rainbow without going through the wind and rain?

“I just think that after this article comes out, he can actually try to submit it to some academic conferences on machine learning.”

This is what Xia Bican meant by higher intensity.

"Go to the meeting? Isn't it too early for him now?"

When Chen Dayue heard Xia Bican's proposal, he fell into deep thought.

"not early."

Xia Bican counted on his fingers and gave Chen Dayue a serious analysis.

"Let Qingshan revise this paper this month, and we'll submit it to MLJ. With you and me in charge, and with Xu Qingshan's level, you know, there's hope that it will be approved for publication this year."

"ICML, or the International Conference on Machine Learning, is the top conference in the field of machine learning. It is held around the end of July every year. The time is not enough, and the quality of the content may be a bit uncertain."

"Then you are talking nonsense."

Chen Dayue curled his lips.

"Look, you're in a hurry."

Xia Bican continued.

“But you can consider letting Qingshan submit his paper to ICML first. After all, those of us who often attend conferences and publish papers know that it is not impossible to publish in a journal after the conference talk. Moreover, if the conference is good enough, the journal review may be more stable.”

"If ICML doesn't work, then we will follow the normal pace and submit to MLJ if it's time to do so. In late August or September, we will submit to ECML, the top conference for machine learning and data mining in Europe. If ICML is the first tier and the others are the second tier, then even if ECML is 8 tier, it will still be valuable enough."

"This guy's English is pretty good. When I called him earlier, I asked him some questions and his pronunciation was fine."

"I think it would be better to send him out early and let him see the big scene. He can also communicate with more seniors from all walks of life, and he may grow faster."

Xia Bican said seriously.

Chen Dayue nodded and thought about it.
