Professor Qiangfu Zhao from Huizu University of Japan Came to our College for Academic Exchange
On the morning of September 10th, Professor Qiangfu Zhao of University of Aizu in Japan was invited to give an academic lecture in the new IT Lecture Hall. The report was moderated by Dean Professor Han Huijian, vice Dean Professor Zhang Yunfeng and all freshmen of graduate students of grade 2019.
First of all, Professor Zhao briefly introduced his study experience and the running situation of Huizu University in Japan. Subsequently, he made a wonderful report entitled “Application of Artificial Intelligence in Industry”, covering the concept, principle and application of Awareness Computing in industry, and introduced the latest research work in this field done by his university of Aizu, IEEE Systems, Man and Cybernetics (SMC) Society. At last, Professor Zhao had a warm exchange and discussion with the teachers and students on the issues of postgraduate research and study abroad, and expressed his welcome for the students to visit Japan’s Aizu University for exchange.
Through this academic exchange activity, graduate students of grade 2019 have a preliminary understanding of the perception science and technology in the field of artificial intelligence. This arouses students’ interest in scientific research, broadens their horizon and plays an important role in enlightening the scientific planning of their future academic career. This academic report is also one of the contents of our school’s 2019 Computer Culture Festival.
