On February 21st, "Science" and other media reported that MD Anderson Cancer Center, the world's top cancer research and clinical diagnosis and treatment institution, suspended the artificial intelligence cooperation project with IBM Watson because of the violations involving the purchase of IBM Watson artificial intelligence and deep learning technology.
Some media expressed concern about Watson's progress in clinical applications and questioned the performance of Watson's artificial intelligence in the medical field.
IBM’s official statement on the incident stated that “the results described in the report are based on procurement activity documents and relevant staff statements and should not be considered as a scientific basis or functional evaluation of the current Watson project system.â€
The statement also said that Watson's projects in cooperation with many medical institutions around the world have shown effectiveness. "IBM Watson will continue to work with more and more medical experts around the world to further deepen people's understanding of Watson. Cutting-edge technology is being extended to more doctors and their patients to contribute to the fight against cancer."
Suspension of cooperation due to economic problems
The suspension of the cooperation involved the purchase of IBM Watson artificial intelligence and deep learning technology violations.
The MD Anderson Cancer Center and the IBM Watson Deep Learning Big Data project began in 2013 with the theme "Big Data Artificial Intelligence Applications Will Accelerate Knowledge of Cancer Diseases and Improve Cancer Clinical Therapy" by the MD Anderson Cancer Center Ronald DePinho Mrs. Lynda Chin (a well-known oncologist).
According to media reports, MD Anderson Cancer Center paid IBM's $26.1 million in research and development expenses in full without the explicit understanding of Watson's artificial intelligence. According to industry insiders, such a cooperative development project, MD Anderson Cancer Center has a full advantage, relying on its strong clinical research resources and international brand effect, it is counter-intuitive to pay related research and development expenses or intellectual property fees in advance.
In this collaboration, Lynda Chin is clearly the focus, as many funding and cost arrangements are coordinated. The investment in the project, of which 50 million US dollars from the Malaysian investment tycoon Low Taek Jho (which is not yet in place), which is considered to be very popular, has caused the US Department of Justice to pay attention to and audit the fund's ins and outs.
Greenhouse Drip Irrigation System
Fertigation is using your irrigator to fertilise the plants and soils as you water, which is the most efficient and advanced practice of fertilization. Aid of pressure system (or natural divide terrain), the soluble solid or liquid fertilizer, according to the soil nutrient content and crop fertilizer regularity and characteristics of species, with the fat of with irrigation water, through a controlled water supply pipeline system, supplying, the compatibility, water through the pipe and drop head form drip irrigation, uniform, regular, quantitative, infiltration area crop root growth and development, make the main root soil always stay loose and appropriate moisture content, at the same time according to different crop fertilizer characteristics, environment and soil nutrient content in soil; Crops in different growth phase water requirement, the different development stages of the fertilizer rule is the demand of design, the water and nutrient timing quantitative, provided directly in proportion to the crops.
