Multi-Dimensional Algorithm

After knowing that Li Yi had only suggested a break because he had started a business, Zhang Jie couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief and smile.

"So that's the reason. This is a good thing! You won't have many classes this semester, so it shouldn't be difficult to take leave. I think you can still take care of both sides. There's no need to take a break from school at all!" Zhang Jie looked at Li Yi and persuaded him nicely.

"Director Zhang, then I want to take a long leave. I won't come to class during other times and I'll only be here to take the exam, is that alright?" Li Yi nodded happily and asked with a smile.

"This, this… Do you really have to take a long leave? How can you skip all the classes?" Zhang Jie frowned and looked at Li Yi in dissatisfaction. This was pushing it! It was no different from taking a break from school!

Li Yi smiled and explained, "Director Zhang, I understand all the fourth-year classes. It's meaningless for me to attend these classes. I fell asleep during last semester's class, but didn't I still get first place? Secondly, the company is at a critical stage of development and I am needed there, so I had the thought of taking a break. If I can't take this long leave, I can only apply for suspension."

After hearing Li Yi's explanation, Zhang Jie immediately understood.

Last semester, Li Yi was known as the "Sleeping God" in the class. Zhang Jie had heard of it, but he didn't interfere too much.

In university life, how students studied and planned their lives depended on the students. University mainly cultivated the students' ability to self-study and self-discipline. Occasionally, they would skip classes and sleep in class. They wouldn't care about such a small matter.

The fact that Li Yi could get first place in the final exam was enough to prove that his outstanding self-study ability far exceeded other students.

In this special situation, it was relatively easy for the school to approve his request to not attend classes for a long time.

Zhang Jie thought for a moment and looked at Li Yi. "I have to discuss this with a few teachers. How about I answer you later?"

"Director Zhang, is it possible to get it done sooner?!" Li Yi smiled bitterly and urged.

The six project teams that developed the simulation system wished they could follow him around every day. If so, Li Yi really didn't have much time to spend in school.

"Alright! Come with me. Let's go to Teacher Ren's office and see if they're around." Zhang Jie had no choice but to agree.

There were many classes for the day. After class, they either went to the laboratory or left the school. They rarely stayed in the office.

It was just a few steps. Only by bringing Li Yi over to see the empty office could he get the other party to give up.

Soon, Zhang Jie brought Li Yi to the door of a teacher's office and was stunned by the scene in front of him.

The teachers who were usually gone by now all sat in front of their computers, typing codes and discussing algorithms from time to time. The scene was noisy, like a market.

There were a few white-haired professors among these teachers, and there were also many graduate students who substituted for them. They usually taught classes too.

Postgraduate students all had a compulsory lesson called: teaching assistant practice. Usually, professors would ask postgraduate students to teach the junior students. Usually, it was instructed and guided by mentors. Sometimes, it would be one or two lessons, and sometimes, they would teach for a whole month.

Today, they didn't go to class or the laboratory. Instead, they gathered in the office and were busy with something.

Zhang Jie brought Li Yi into the office. Everyone was busy, as if no one noticed their arrival. They were all immersed in the contents of the computer screen.

"Professor Liu, what are you guys busy with?" Zhang Jie brought Li Yi to a professor in his fifties and asked curiously.

"Little Jie, you're here! What's the matter? I'm not free at the moment." Upon hearing the voice, Professor Liu Qinghong didn't even turn his head. His attention was all on the contents of the LCD screen.

Zhang Jie smiled bitterly. He had finally found someone, but before he could say anything, he was stopped.

Zhang Jie was just an ordinary counselor. He was not even part of the administration of the school. He didn't have the courage to offend a character like Professor Liu, who was affiliated with the business aspect of the school and a high-level title.

"Li Yi, Professor Liu and the others aren't free now. Why don't we talk about this another day?" Zhang Jie looked at Li Yi and hurriedly advised.

Upon hearing that, Li Yi smiled and wasn't angry. If it were an ordinary student, they would definitely retreat after hearing Zhang Jie's words.

However, after this period of training, Li Yi had obtained the experience of managing a company, giving lectures, and hosting meetings. Li Yi's personality and his skills in handling people had improved greatly.

"Director Zhang, please wait a moment." Li Yi smiled at Zhang Jie and walked to Professor Liu's side. "Professor, you're researching a multi-dimensional algorithm, right?"

Upon hearing Li Yi's words, Professor Liu Qinghong suddenly turned around and looked at him in surprise. "Yes, how do you know this algorithm?"

Li Yi couldn't help but laugh. He had announced this algorithm in the clearing system. No one understood it better than him.

"Well, after doing some research, I found that learning this algorithm requires a certain skill." Li Yi smiled and nodded, reminding him.

Upon hearing that, Professor Liu Qinghong perked up and asked impatiently, "What skill do you need?"

"You have to use another kind of algorithm logic. Multi-dimensional algorithms are a causal structure. You can't understand it with ordinary algorithm logic!" Li Yi continued to introduce.

"Causal structure!" Professor Liu Qinghong was a little confused. At the same time, he looked at Li Yi with curiosity.

The clearing system was popular in the entire department. They spent a lot of effort to help write code for free and obtained a lot of knowledge about new algorithms. However, the knowledge of these new algorithms alone didn't provide them with the corresponding learning skills and methods. Therefore, everyone learned very painfully.

Professor Liu Qinghong was not young anymore, so learning this new algorithm was especially difficult for him.

"Yes, a structure of a multi-layered chain. Let's put it this way. Do you know anything about the polynomial regression algorithm? If you do, I can use this popular algorithm to dismantle it analogically." Li Yi looked at Professor Liu Qinghong and asked with a smile.

"I have a certain understanding of it. The polynomial regression algorithm is a supervised regression learning algorithm. The regression algorithm establishes a regression model between variables and obtains the relevant relationship between variables and factors through the learning process…" Professor Liu Qinghong hurriedly nodded and introduced.

"Very good, it's much easier to talk about it this way. On many occasions, linear models can't fit the target data curve very well. We need to introduce a nonlinear regression model. If we use a multidimensional algorithm, we can build an optimization function of a class function…" Li Yi looked at Professor Liu Qinghong and explained the main points of the multidimensional algorithm non-stop, transitioning the logic of an ordinary algorithm to the thinking logic of a new algorithm.

Zhang Jie was stunned. He watched as Professor Liu Qinghong listened attentively. Sometimes, he revealed a look of realization, sometimes a confused expression, and sometimes, he kept nodding. He was stunned.

What was going on!

Was Li Yi teaching Professor Liu?
