June 30 写在CVPR08之后Alaska拥有我未曾体验的美与震撼,但长达30+30小时的辗转旅程多多少少为此行大打折扣。一直以为美国学者不愿让CVPR出美国主要是为了节约开支,现在倒觉得主要是为了躲避这颇不舒坦的旅程。
Anchorage 这座城很像Urbana-Champaign, 简朴而不华丽。此行的焦点多多少少牵系雪与冰,从Extended Stay Hotel 的窗户望去,远处即是冰雪覆盖的群山;此行的主要活动除了开会就是坐小型飞机降落到了冰川上(颇为震撼,见下图)。Anchorage的地理位置特殊,基本成了太阳不落之城,深夜11点了太阳还能播洒点点余晖,早上不到4点,天已大亮。
此次会议有幸多中了几篇文章,但是最开心的还是见到了这么多已经半年或者一年未见的老朋友,还有很多新朋友。额外的收获是一路抽空有幸做了一次文学青年,读完了余秋雨的<<千年一叹>>。余老师的古文明探索之旅可谓惊险,而感触最深的是他的对古文明的一个简短总结:两千五百年前,希腊哲人在大海边思考人与自然的关系,印度哲人在恒河边思考人与神的关系,而中国哲人在黄河边思考人与人的关系。我个人的解读倒觉得雨老师和凤凰卫视组织的这次旅程颇像一个淘气孩子离家出走的全过程。开始在希腊和埃及,贪婪地拥抱那些保留尚可的古文明遗迹;等到了伊朗,巴基斯坦与印度,面对战争的恐怖与贫穷的哀伤,有点手足无措以致极度低落;等到了尼伯尔,看到祖国的喜马拉雅山,狂喜与眼泪交织在一起,心底大喊一声: 祖国 (母亲),今天我终于及时赶到。
最后要祝贺Shan Shiguang和Chen Xilin老师拿到了CVPR08 Best Student Poster Runner-up Award, 还有Quan Long老师拿到了CVPR08 Best Student Poster Award。
March 17 Thinking at the coming of the 60-th paperCVPR07 is so so for me this time, and only two papers were accepted. But I am happy that my 60-th paper comes as "Element Rearrangment for Tensor Based Learning", CVPR'07. I still remember that my 40-th paper came as a ECCV'06 paper, and it is about fourteen months ago when I worked in Hong Kong.
What can I conclude from these 60 papers?
1. Many guys often have exciting conclusions after a period of research, and even build models on how to prepare for an excellent paper. But here I would like to share a somewhat abjective opinion: paper acceptance is a radom process, at least for relatively senior but not highly senior researchers. The facts often validate this abjective opinion. I often encourage Huanzi that we only need believe our work is excellent, and can be accepted by top conference sooner or later :-)
2. After having stayed in Tom's group for eleven months, I am trying to change my research style from publication-driven to application-driven. If the research is only for paper, what is the value and why should we do it?
There are much much more that I would like to share, but the ICCV deadline is coming. Let me continue after the 70-th paper.
October 27 The 10-th Transaction PaperToday is a special day for my research career, and I get the 10-th transaction paper from T-CSVT.
It is pretty important for a researcher to transform a research work into a transaction paper, which defaultly contains the detailed information of a work such that the readers can reimplement the work.
When I was in MSRA, conference papers are more important than transaction papers. After I moved to CUHK, I realized that it is significant to get papers published in transactions, especially for an acedemic career.
Learned a lot from Prof. Liu, Tang, Huang, Yang, Kwok, Dr. Steve, Hongjiang and many many others. Sepcial thanks to you all here from the bottom of my heart! September 20 Heart Report -- 1It was a long time that I did not have the desire to write anything here.
It is the time to think about something in depth.
I am trying to find something that will have great impact in literature.
Paper was ever the only target of my work, and now I am trying to be more powerful in other aspects.
Life is changing, and idea is changing.
