打乒乓的随想
热度 44 weijia2009 2013-3-7 16:30
打乒乓的随想 贾伟 最近忙得一塌糊涂,刚收到博友短信,批评我好久不写博,不大像话。于是赶紧坐下来码一段话,算是更新一下博文。 昨天吃午饭的时候跟一个国内来访的青年学者聊天,他说他们单位的常规锻炼活动是打乒乓,一个老院士带着一帮青年教师活动。有意思的是,老院士的乒乓热情和技术与日俱增,而他身边一帮年青人本来球技很精湛,半年下来技战水平大不如前。因为他们发觉跟别人打球时,回球总是习惯性地往对方最舒服的地方送,被对方一抽杀便很快败下阵来。 听完了这个朋友绘声绘色的描述我笑了,想象那一帮聪明的年青人,打个乒乓球都想着去博取老爷子的喜欢,结果弄得自己球都不会打了。乒乓球如此,别的方面说不定也会是这样。 想起眼前的一个故事,前不久科学网上曾泳春博主有一篇题为“ 撒娇 是一种 人生 态度 ”的博文,我没看懂!我同意泳春博文中的“敬畏自然”一说,也理解“示弱”的方式,但“敬畏自然”加上“示弱”怎么就变成了“撒娇”,恕我智商低下、语法和逻辑水平都不高,实在是整不明白,两个概念彼此八竿子也打不着!但更令人称奇的是, YC 的著名粉丝蒋劲松同学很快写 博文 呼应,讲了一个农民一面种庄稼一面喂麻雀从而与自然和谐相处的故事,最后他老人家隆重点题,认为该农民是一种对自然敬畏并示弱的行为,是在向大自然撒娇!我一面阅读他的高论一面鸡皮疙瘩掉了一地(可能这也算是对胡扯的一种敬畏 + 示弱的表现),我十分担心老蒋同学一如既往地这么取悦偶像,再过两年可能连中国话都不会讲了 …… 借机调侃一下两位博友,言归正传。刚看到新华社刊发的上海交通大学党委书记马德秀的一个 发言 ,她分析中国为何改变不了“世界工厂”的尴尬地位,原因是科技、教育、学科之间都存在着脱节。 她举例说,第三代核电大型铸锻件曾是卡在中国核电装备业咽喉中的骨鲠,多次试验都没有成功。上海交大的潘健生院士主动带领十几位教师助阵,他们向负责研发的上海重型机器厂讨项目,并提出“这个项目立不上一个课题、拿不到一分钱也要做!”自从潘院士和一批教师加盟后,该厂基础研究和多学科交叉的优势显现。去年 7 月具有中国自主知识产权的第三代核电大型铸锻件研制成功,潘院士的科研团队也从大锻件生产工艺中归纳提炼出基础理论问题,迄今发表高水平论文 100 余篇,并从这个产学研合作中衍生出“ 973 ”计划项目。 看完马书记的这段话,我开始感慨。第一个想法就是,这个潘院士了不起,要是中国两院院士几千号人中有一半人能这么做,中国何愁提不高创新能力!但仔细一想之下,我很快又改变了念头,潘院士这样有胆量去动真格接受挑战的毕竟是凤毛麟角,我们这么多老院士真要是哗啦一下冲到工业第一线去,那可能就不妙了,别的不说,这个打乒乓的“局面”会从科研领域直接转移到工业领域去。 院士当中不乏懂行并位居学科前沿的领军人才,但创新这个东西要靠年青人,这个观点无须争论!而我国创新能力不强、几十年如一日地担当“世界工厂”的根本原因是年青学者不在科技领军者的行列,这些年青人就像那个打乒乓的科研团队一样,亦步亦趋不敢越雷池一步地跟在老同志后面跑,何来争先一说? 回到开头吃午饭的场景,我向国内学者介绍这里的科研情况时,直接指着饭厅里吃饭的几个美国同事介绍他们的领域和背景,我顺便告诉他在角落里吃饭的那个老头是美国科学院院士。我说,“不好意思,我们这里对院士是尊敬的,但没有人去众星捧月,所以他老人家在那儿一个人显得有点孤单。我们这里也打乒乓,不过那帮打得很好的家伙不带老头儿玩,嫌他水平太差了。”

Ronald Mahler 是谁?

Ronald Mahler 是谁?
按序 : 我个人4月26号发了一篇博文《 一个超级大牛的超级自引文献----这才叫牛:引的响当当 》,引起了大家对Ronald Mahler和大牛的讨论高潮。包括何毓琦老师《 也谈 “一篇超级大牛的超级自引文献----这才叫牛:引的响当当” 》,吴宝俊老师《 【科●反】躺着中枪的Ronald Mahler与科研名利场 》以及谢力老师《 何为大牛:关于Ronald Mahler 》等等分别撰写了博文,也都被编辑部精选。所以跟贴讨论和评价的也很多。我最早发文的初衷以及对大家给予的意见和知识反馈的 理解 和 感激 在我的博文《 给“超级大牛”Ronald Mahler 再补一枪? 》 《 翻译兼回复: “Why I wrote the article 也谈"一篇超级大牛的…" 》中表述比较清楚。 这里介绍Ronald Mahler 的 主要研究工作,尽量不发表个人观点。因这个人公开的信息很少(可能跟他不是一般的在大学任职有关吧,没有找到其个人网站之类的东西;再者跟他的研究单位Martin多目标跟踪更多是军事项目涉密有关?),所以数据主要是他的发表文献搜集Publications以及他本人自述的一些东西(来自他的研究报告PPT和书籍) 一,Ronald Mahler 简述 (全名 Ronald P. S. Mahler) 谢力老师《 何为大牛:关于Ronald Mahler 》博文已经进行了部分Ronald Mahler 教育情况的简述和分析,其可能来源于在Mahler发表在IEEE T. Aerospace Electronics Systems 最后的作者简述。这里面还有一段话如下: Dr. Mahler is the author, coauthor, or coeditor of over fifty publications, including eleven articles in refereed journals, two books, a hardcover conference proceedings, and a monograph. He has been invited to present at many universities, U.S. government laboratories, and conferences including Harvard, Johns Hopkins, the University of Wisconsin, the University of Massachusetts, the Air Force Institute of Technology, SPAWAR Systems Center, the IEEE Conference on Decision and Control, the International Conference on Information, Decision, and Control, and the International Conference on Information Fusion. 上面提到他写的两个著作: 一个是《Statistical Multisource Multitarget Information Fusion》, Artech House 2007 出版,他是唯一作者。(下面简称 书S )。另外一本不知道说的是:1997年和人合著《Mathematics of Data Fusion》CRC Press,和《Random sets: theory and applications》Springer ,他都是第二作者;2000年自己单独出版《An Introduction to Multisource-multitarget Statistics and Applications》(很短104页,更像手册),Lockheed Martin。其中,集他2007年之前基本理论大成的 书S 中序言中清楚得写到: The purpose of this book is not to reprise what has already been adequately addressed. Rather, it is a textbook style introduction to a fundamentally new, seamlessly unied, and fully statistical approach to information fusion. (翻译, 这本书不对已经得到充分解决的问题进行陈述 (这段话之前列出了基本领域内经典的书籍)。 相反,它是一本能够给信息融合提供一套全新的系统完整的纯粹统计方法 ) 从理论方法上理解,他的研究工作都是建立在FISST(finite set statistics)上。注意,Set Statistics是传统数学里面的东西,但现在很多的研究者公认FISST是Mahler的东西了。这一套理论上发展用于多目标跟踪(Multiple target tracking)的 PHD filter, CPHD filter,以及 Multi-target Multi-Bernoulli filter, “Second-generation” PHD/CPHD filters 等等。他怎么起源的自己的研究呐?在 书S 中他介绍到: I acknowledge my profound debt to the groundbreaking research of Dr. I.R. Goodman of the U.S. Navy SPAWAR Systems Center. It was Dr. Goodman who, beginning in late 1993, exposed me to the potentially revolutionary implications of random set techniques in information fusion. 是Dr. I.R. Goodman 在1993年 启发Mahler采用有限集统计解决信息融合问题,也就导致后来他发展FISST。从此,这人相当于将近20年都耗在这上面了。关于FISST理论方法的创新性,这个链接上他本人做的ppt (pdf格式)阐述Conclusions的很好: ( http://research.microsoft.com/en-us/um/redmond/events/womot03/mahler-tutorial.pdf ) •“Finite-set statistics” (FISST) provides a systematic, Bayes-probabilistic foundation and unification for multisource, multitargetdata fusion •Is an “engineering friendly” formulation of point process theory, the recognized theoretical foundation for stochastic multi-object systems •Has led to systematic foundations for previously murky problems: e.g. group-target fusion •Is leading to new computational approaches, e.g. PHD filter; multisteplook-ahead sensor management •Currently being investigated by other researchers:–Defense Sciences Technology Office (Australia), U. Melbourne (Australia), Swedish Defense Research Agency, Georgia Tech Research Institute, SAIC Corp. 二,Ronald Mahler 主要发表文献列表: Summary: IEEE 期刊 (共计11篇,其中6篇第一作者,4篇唯一作者) IEEE 会议(共计19篇,其中14篇第一作者,12篇唯一作者) SPIE 会议(共计117篇,其中63篇第一作者,44篇唯一作者) In detail: 1,IEEE 期刊 (共计11篇,其中6篇第一作者,4篇唯一作者) Mahler, R.P.S. ; Ba-Tuong Vo; Ba-Ngu Vo; , "Forward-Backward Probability Hypothesis Density Smoothing," Aerospace and Electronic Systems, IEEE Transactions on , vol.48, no.1, pp.707-728, Jan. 2012 doi: 10.1109/TAES.2012.6129665 URL: http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=arnumber=6129665isnumber=6129613 Mahler, R.P.S.; , "Combining ambiguous evidence with respect to ambiguous a priori knowledge.

从一位英龟教授在某大学的遭遇看大学“领军人才”招聘
热度 39 陈安博士 2011-1-26 20:19
  在科学网主页上,我们会经常看到一些来自不同大学的招聘广告,虽然俺们觉得现在的单位挺好,不想换地方,可是也耐不住好奇,会看上几眼。   我们先看科学网新贴出来的ZJ大学管理学院“特聘岗”基本情况。   招聘对象: 学科领军人物   招聘条件要求:     ①年龄在55周岁以下;    ②国际著名教授或同领域公认的知名学者,学术造诣高深,学术水平在国际同领域处于领先地位,取得国际公认的重要成就;    ③具有凝聚多学科协同作战,引领相关学科群赶超或保持国际领先水平的能力。   看了这条件,我觉得自己挺够格的,立刻就想写个应聘的申请去,可是,看到后面的又5个对于学科领军人才的岗位职责要求,立刻歇菜了。    ①主持学科建设,制定学科建设和发展战略,规划并组织实施,带领本学科和相关学科群进入世界一流学科行列;    ②引进并组织开设本学科及相关交叉学科领域的国际前沿课程或讲座,引进并组织编写世界一流教学大纲和教材;    ③策划、并争取主持国际合作或国家重大科研项目 并做出具有国际先进水平的创新成果;    ④构建本学科及相关交叉学科的学术梯队,引进和培养高层次青年人才,聚集一批有创新能力的教学科研骨干,形成有国际竞争力的青年创新团队;    ⑤提升本学科整体水平和国际影响,积极推动和开展国际学术交流。   说实在的,如我这般有点狂的人来说,以上这几条里第1,2,4,5条我是肯定可以努力在5-10年内做到的,凭着这家大学的基本条件和生源质量,加上俺们的热情,达到这四条要求是完全有可能的。   可是,糟糕的是,还有第三条的前半段(红字部分):“ 策划并争取国际合作或国家重大科研项目 ”。   看到这一条的存在,我们大家被招聘广告激起来的热情大概要立刻熄火了,就俺本人而言,因为俺们近5年的研究就从来没有以“项目”为核心组织过自己的科研工作,所以,即便后半段的要求“做出具有国际先进水平的创新成果”自信可以做到,但是前半段,打死我都做不到,第一个动词是“策划”,那就更难了,必须到处游说基金委啊,科技部的官员们去,俺们更是没有这闲情逸致。   国内很多大学的招聘模式基本如此吧,这就让我想到了一位英国归来(英龟)学者的遭遇。   他在国内某大学也拿的是“领军级”特聘教授岗位,作为能够在英国拿到教授职位的学者,水平应该至少不差。我印象里,好像是搞图论的巴拉巴斯先生在剑桥一度就是拿不到教授职位,甚至连他后来的学生都被聘为教授了,自己水平也不差可是就是没有当上,最后他老人家一气之下去了哈佛当教授去了,不知道是不是哈佛“特聘”教授(嘻嘻,有这名头没),反正是“此处不留爷自有留爷处”了。   回头来说这位英龟,他的学术水平很好,国际声誉也响当当,论文也不算少,还挺愿意回国全职工作,这样,在知道B校确实在四处踅摸外国华裔教授时,当然会一拍即合。理论上说,这不都是很幸福的事情吗?   而这家大学对特聘岗教授的要求和ZJ大学管理学院差不多。   3年后的结果是,这位英龟教授被扫地出门。当然,开除的名义很好听,是为学院和大学做出了卓越的贡献,带动了学科发展,发表了很多论文,取得了很大进展,云云,最后说是因为存在文化冲突啊之类,还存在一些其他问题,所以.....      而这位老兄不幸被扫地出门后,只好再度回到英国,在原来就职的大学重新找回了教授职位,可是,这位教授咋就在我们的B大学不合适呢,直到被开除的地步呢?   其实,就是以上的第三条的前半段没有完成,第三条的前半段在招聘启事里是没有给出量化指标的,而在和这位教授的合同里则不同,是有具体指标的,那就是3年要拿到1000万的研究经费,而他的团队只拿到了400万。   在广告里,ZJ大学领军人才的特聘具体岗待遇是:工资津贴每年100万元起,另外提供科研启动、学科配套经费和安家费、住房补贴等;   这家B大学对这位英龟的待遇也是一样的,都是100万年薪起,可是3年的年薪加上其他乱七八糟,也不会超过500万,而要求他到了B大学之后组建的这支新团队为大学带来的利润却是1000万,两相比较,其实大学还是玩的稳赚不赔的买卖。   糟糕的是,组建一个能打能拼的团队怎么也要至少2-3年的时间,事实上,在5年时间里都不能保证一轮博士生从入学到毕业,毕竟你从开始进入学校到第一轮自己名下的学生入学到位都会需要1-2年的时间。而即便是海外的大牌教授,到了国内,申请经费也不是那么容易的,而可能相比于国内的二牌教授还不如,这一点不用多说,是中国学者都明白。   这样,对于这类初来咋到的特聘岗位领军教授,以3年内或5年的多少经费来衡量业绩就是一个很大的问题,当然,我们也没有必要一定得等上20年,我个人觉得8年左右是出现稍微大点科研成果的合适时间,时间如果一定要稍微短点,比如5年,我想可以不去具体考察多少经费的到位情况,而是看做了多少工作,同行评议应该还是能在这里起到应有作用的吧?!   领军人才招聘还有很多繁琐的事情需要做,ZJ大学管理学院有如下规矩【内含我的红字评述】:    1、 提供三封同行专家推荐信(海外应聘者,须有两封及以上海外同行专家推荐信),推荐人应是本领域知名专家。    【还得找几个老伙计帮着吹捧吹捧,想想也都50岁的人了,真是不好意思张这嘴呀!有点象联系出国读博士找教授写推荐信】    【当然,国外大学招聘会有类似要求,倒不是我国的特色,所以也理解,那就腆着脸求求老朋友们给写封信去吧】    【推荐人的资格得知名,别到时候求到老朋友写了信,但是招聘单位回来告诉你说:您得另外找人,因为这位推荐您的家伙,自己SCI文章还不到30篇呢,咋能算知名专家呀!】   2、 学历、学位证书,任职证明,海外经历证明(如中国驻外使领馆开具的《留学回国人员证明》复印件、任职单位出具的海外工作结束证明等);    【那就如唐骏那般,让老婆好好翻翻箱底吧,也许还能找出那张25年前获得的东太平洋大学的博士文凭来】    【还得去大使馆找找,看看人家还给开已经在英国美国的大学工作20年的证明不?】    【海外工作结束证明,那是解聘证明吧?!哈哈】   3、 申请表中列举的所有科研项目、获奖及专利情况的证明复印件;    【科研项目,当前的那些都有盖章的痕迹不?签字的算不?人家外国也有盖章的,不过也有不盖章只签字的,算数不?】    【获奖证书?坏了,当年得那俩诺贝尔奖的时候一高兴,证书落在瑞典的哪家宾馆里了】   4、 3篇重要代表性论文的全文,以及推荐表中列举的其他代表性著作论文首页和目录复印件;    【这是正常要求,人人都拿得出来。不过,通讯作者的算不?是不是还得第一作者呢?】   5、 推荐表中列举的SCI、EI、SSCI、AHCI收录以及论文他引情况的证明;    【这个应该可以拿到,路透公司提供这服务,虽然是收费的。不过,真要是应聘者是钱学森先生这样的,在这方面可就不占便宜了,他的论文发表的不多,他引也不多。这种情况下,怕过不了第一关呀!】   6、 在国际学术会议上担任职务的证明以及作大会报告、特邀报告的邀请信或通知复印件。    【当过好几回这主席那秘书长的,可是都没聘书。做的大会报告也都是朋友一个E-mail过来让去讲讲,自己就买张票过去了。还是不好提供,唉,真个愁死人呀!】   虽然俺们把ZJ大学的这个招聘启事分析得这么透彻,我估计大家都还是不敢去的,因为前面是有先例的。比如,凃博士去了之后把命扔在了青年公寓的楼下,人家ZJ大学还说给他提供了名牌微波炉呢。还有一个例子就是北大的贺卫方了,在北大把离职手续都全给办完了,正要拖家带口地过去时,人家ZJ大学告诉说“不聘你了”,原因不明(其实是来自省里的压力,说这么一刺头教授你们都敢要来,还反了你们啦,给我退回去!),结果这么大一个法学教授,天天为弱势群体呼吁,还以为他是“强势”群体了呢,其实也就是一教授级农民工。这事出了之后,他也没脸真为此去和ZJ大学打官司,其实要打官司怕也没啥证据;即便有确凿的证据,人家ZJ大学就是不要你了,你莫非还要在法庭上哭着喊着让人家要不成?最后只能“被”放了一次“大”鸽子。
