They're already in university, and the primary school system is only just starting out?

Chapter 110 Talent alone is not enough

"You mentioned that at decision point k, the state of the system is a posterior distribution πk. However, this posterior distribution usually exists in a parameter space with extremely high dimensionality, and it changes dynamically with the addition of each new data point."

Performing standard dynamic programming solutions in such a high-dimensional, continuous state space would be computationally prohibitive, making it virtually infeasible.

As soon as Lü Yi finished speaking, the doctoral student next to him named You Lie immediately added in unison, "That's right, and what's even more troublesome than the state space is the handling of global constraints."

You Lie's voice was louder than Lü Yi's, carrying an undeniable confidence. He also pushed up his glasses and looked intently at Shen Yan.

"Ensuring that the final statistical analysis meets the constraints of Class I and Class II error rates is a global result that can only be verified at the end of the entire dynamic decision-making process. How can we design the local decision rule k at each step to guarantee that this final global goal can be achieved?"

This requires extremely sophisticated theoretical design, such as using martingale theory or the consumption function method to construct the boundary. Any misstep in the decision-making process could lead to the loss of all previous efforts; this is the core challenge of this problem!

Professor Gong Qin sat to the side, looking at his two prized students who had suddenly become so eager to show off, and felt a little strange.

These two kids are never this proactive or eager to speak when they're giving project presentations. What's wrong with them today?

He followed their gazes and looked across at the other side. When he saw Shen Yan, who was dressed in a smart OL outfit and had a cool and intellectual temperament, he suddenly realized what was going on.

Hey, so after all that, he just wanted to show off his talents in front of pretty girls.

Professor Gong sighed inwardly and shook his head.

Young people, you're still too green.

However, Yan Feifei and Zhu Jianqing, who were standing to the side, showed expressions of approval for the two doctoral students' speeches.

"Well said!" Yan Feifei exclaimed sincerely. "The two top students have a very accurate perspective on the problem and have pointed out the biggest obstacle our team is currently facing in theoretical derivation."

How to handle high-dimensional states and global constraints is indeed a cutting-edge research hotspot in the interdisciplinary field of computational statistics and operations research.

Zhu Jianqing nodded in satisfaction, a smile spreading across his face.

He organized this meeting today not expecting to get a perfect final answer in one go.

Being able to invite top experts from different backgrounds to sit together and exchange ideas from different perspectives, even if it only generates some new inspiration and ideas, is already worth the price for him.

The atmosphere in the conference room became both enthusiastic and professional thanks to the brilliant presentations by the two USTC doctoral students.

Shen Yan kept her head down, writing furiously, trying to keep up with the pace of the discussion.

But when Yu Lie mentioned using "martingale theory or the consumption function method to construct the boundary", her hand, which was taking notes, paused slightly.

This knowledge point is beyond her current learning scope.

She subconsciously raised her head, her clear eyes filled with a hint of curiosity and confusion. Leaning slightly towards Chen Lin beside her, she whispered in a voice only the two of them could hear, "How exactly is that consumption function method applied here?"

Chen Lin turned his head, his warm breath almost brushing against her earlobe, and explained in a low, concise voice.

"...You can think of it as a risk budget." Each decision consumed a portion of the budget, and as long as there was still a budget remaining at the end, the overall constraints wouldn't be broken.

Their intimate interaction, seemingly oblivious to others, naturally caught the attention of several people sitting nearby.

The older folks, Zhu Jianqing and Yan Feifei, simply smiled knowingly and didn't take it to heart.

But to You Lie and Lü Yi, the feeling was completely different.

An indescribable sour feeling instantly welled up from the bottom of their hearts.

Their remarks, while intended to showcase their academic expertise, also revealed a subtle attempt to impress Shen Yan, a woman of exceptional beauty and elegance.

But the result?

They didn't even give them a second glance, instead turning to ask Mr. Chen, who looked even younger than them, for advice!

The two exchanged a glance, both seeing a hint of resentment in each other's eyes.

They had, of course, also seen the video of Chen Lin solving a problem for their mentor, Academician Liang Tianshi, in a modeling competition.

To be honest, the two of them were really shocked at the time, and felt that this young man was exceptionally talented.

But in mathematics, talent alone is not enough!

Especially for industry challenges of this magnitude today, what is needed is a deep accumulation of theoretical knowledge, as well as the comprehensive ability to integrate various high-level tools and form feasible solutions.

These are things that are simply impossible to acquire without systematic research training at the graduate or even doctoral level!

In their view, Chen Lin probably wouldn't have much of a chance to perform today.

Didn't you notice that even their own mentor, Professor Gong Qin, hasn't spoken yet? This is enough to show just how tricky it is to provide a decent answer!

However, at this moment, Chairman Zhu Jianqing, who was in the main seat, suddenly turned his gaze to Chen Lin, who had been silent since the beginning.

To be honest, Zhu Jianqing's curiosity about Chen Lin was almost overflowing.

Initially, it was Peng Yifeng from Tiansheng Investment who strongly recommended it to him and even forwarded him the viral video.

But this was not enough to completely impress Zhu Jianqing.

He himself has a PhD in science and engineering, has a good grasp of mathematics, and knows how to solve the kind of problems in the videos. It tests talent and flexibility of thinking more.

However, when faced with truly complex engineering problems, a young undergraduate student's knowledge accumulation and application experience are questionable.

Therefore, he initially agreed to let Yanhai Company come over after receiving a report from his subordinates that Yanhai Company was willing to send someone to discuss the matter offline, with a "let's give it a try" attitude.

What truly surprised him was the attitude of his old friend, Professor Gong Qin.

When Gong Qin heard that Chen Lin would also be coming, he not only did not look down on him at all, but showed great interest. He even jokingly asked where he had invited such a big shot.

After meeting, Gong Qin's undisguised respect and appreciation for Chen Lin further piqued Zhu Jianqing's interest in the young man's true abilities.

He knew his old friend all too well.

Gong Qin appears cheerful to everyone, but in reality, he is extremely arrogant in academic matters, and there are very few people he truly respects.

What kind of magic does this young man named Chen Lin possess?
