Three core resources to promote technological progress
Baidu Institute of Technology has opened a new model for the export and integration of technical resources of top enterprises. Through various cooperation, the cutting-edge technology will be transformed into a systematic curriculum system, empowering the whole society and effectively promoting scientific education and technological progress.
As a unified platform for Baidu's foreign training, Baidu Institute of Technology has three core resources: lecturer team, curriculum system and training methods.
As far as the lecturer team is concerned, Baidu Institute of Technology has a strong faculty. Most of its lecturers are from Baidu, senior engineers and internal trainers with many years of research and development experience, or evangelists certified by Baidu. They are familiar with Internet products and innovative methods, covering the frontier science and technology fields of the Internet, understanding the technical categories urgently needed by enterprises, and helping students solve practical problems in their work.
In the curriculum system, it covers the frontier technology field of the Internet, and forms a systematic curriculum system in the fields of artificial intelligence technology, big data and cloud computing technology, and the latest technology of the Web. Adhere to the application-oriented, emphasize actual combat and training, make up for the disconnection between the higher education system and solving practical problems, respond to the rapid development of technology trends in time, and cultivate practical Internet talents.
In terms of training methods, Baidu chooses a combination of online and offline. In addition to campus cooperation and training certification, various forms of offline activities will be held. For example, Bootcamp is Baidu's training program open to the industry. Based on Baidu's platform, technology and methods, combined with cases and scenarios, students are given high-intensity and targeted practical training. Through practical training, students can quickly master a certain technology and apply it to work to solve practical problems. It is reported that the first phase of Bootcamp will focus on Internet product innovation and will start recruitment in Beijing in June.
Flexible and diverse ways of cooperation
Baidu is also continuing to cooperate with all walks of life in knowledge export. At the opening ceremony, the reporter learned that there are three main modes of foreign cooperation of Baidu Institute of Technology:
Jointly set up cutting-edge technology specialty with universities. Baidu provides cutting-edge artificial intelligence technology courses, experimental platforms and training opportunities, so that students can master the latest technology after graduation and adapt to social needs;
Jointly develop and share high-quality authoritative courses. Baidu has cooperated with W3C, and W3C will share the existing technical contents and courses with Baidu, so as to promote the dissemination of the latest WEB technologies and standards and prosper the WEB ecosystem.
Joint training with training institutions. Cooperate with all kinds of professional training institutions in society, combine Baidu's superior resources and cutting-edge technical fields, and jointly train talents and missionaries with all kinds of training institutions in society.
Chen Shangyi, Dean of Baidu Technology Research Institute, also introduced BIT's evangelist program, that is, a career that continues to deliver technologies you love and believe in, such as Google's Vint.

Kawasaki and others. , set off a hurricane for their industry. Baidu's missionary plan is to cooperate with 10 city, 20 universities and 30 innovation centers during the year to train 200 missionaries. The key direction of 20 17 is that Baidu has accumulated profound artificial intelligence and the latest Web technology. Baidu will implement targeted training programs, certification programs and encouragement policies for preachers in different fields.
After years of accumulation, Baidu has accumulated a large number of data resources and artificial intelligence technologies, and is at the global leading level in search, artificial intelligence, cloud computing, big data and other technical fields.
At present, Baidu's daily request for brain speech synthesis is 250 million, the speech recognition rate is 97%, and the face recognition accuracy rate is 99.7%. Baidu voice technology was selected as "Top Ten Breakthrough Technologies in the World in 20 16" by MIT Science and Technology Review magazine, and Baidu was also selected as the second most intelligent company in the world by this magazine.
The establishment of Baidu Technology Research Institute will open its own technical knowledge and ability to all walks of life, which will inevitably become a powerful driving force for the long-term development of Internet technology in China.
