Chapter 56 The fickle man
Wu Qingshui actually identified the rough stone by comparing the similarity of the rough stone?
Qian Yang had no clear concept of such high-tech things and asked instinctively: "Then how does your array plate confirm the similarity between the two stones?"
Wu Qingshui smiled and said, "This involves a very complex algorithm. Are you sure you can understand it?"
Qian Yang didn't think he could understand, so he asked instead: "Then how accurate do you use it to identify the raw stone?"
Wu Qingshui hesitated and said, "It's okay, as long as I can find similar rough stones in the database, the accuracy rate will be quite considerable."
"What you mean is that as long as the epidermis is similar, the judgment of the array plate is accurate?" Qian Yang asked, thinking that this question is very important.
"It's almost the same!" Wu Qingshui nodded: "In my experience, if the outer skins of the two raw stones are more than 80% similar, the internal structure is likely to be similar. Of course, it is just similar, and the error is actually quite large. However, it is barely acceptable to implement the number of spirit stones produced."
Qian Yang nodded. Wu Qingshui's conclusion has fundamental significance for gambling stones, which means that he found evidence to prove that the appearance of the outer skin of the raw stone is indeed closely related to the internal structure, rather than just relying on the intuitive feeling of the stone master to guess.
Qian Yang thought for a while and said, "Since you can make the correct identification as long as you can find similar rough stones in the database, you can completely solve all problems by collecting a large amount of data."
Wu Qingshui shook his head: "It is difficult to find two identical rough stones. It is rare to have a similarity of two stones of 60% or 70%. It is certainly necessary to collect a large amount of data, but I feel increasingly that it may never be able to achieve the effect I want by collecting data alone."
"What should I do?" Qian Yang had no idea at all.
Wu Qingshui sighed: "I think the problem lies in the judgment of similarity. My current algorithm is a bit extensive in the judgment of similarity between two stones, mainly distinguishing it from the intuitive aspects of size, shape, color, and particle shape."
Qian Yang was a little confused: "The raw stones need to be judged from these aspects, otherwise what do you want?"
Wu Qingshui opened his eyes wide: "No way? Do you stone masters have no special methods to judge the raw stone? As long as you tell me, I can add this judgment method to the algorithm, and I believe that it can greatly improve the accuracy of the judgment."
Qian Yang lowered his head and thought hard, hesitatingly said: "Besides the appearance, it depends on the feeling! You know, the spiritual enlightenment of monks is very wonderful, especially the spiritual enlightenment based on a lot of experience."
Wu Qingshui was amused: "How can I add the mysterious thing like Lingjue to the algorithm? And most importantly, I don't believe in Lingjue at all, I only believe in data!"
Qian Yang frowned: "Then let me put it another way! For example, there are two stones that look similar, and an excellent stone master can tell which one is higher in quality at a glance. But if you have to tell him what the difference between these two stones is, it may be difficult to explain clearly, but he just knows that these two stones are different."
"I believe this, so I always feel that the stone master has some unknown ways to distinguish raw stones, which is also the biggest reason why I ask you to be an assistant." Wu Qingshui said seriously.
"I really don't have this." Qian Yang shook his head.
Wu Qingshui was silent.
"It's true." Qian Yang emphasized again.
"Okay! Go back to the question just now." Wu Qingshui changed his mind: "Where does the spiritual sense of the stone master come from?"
"Experience?" Qian Yang was a little uncertain.
"Where does experience come from?" Wu Qingshui asked.
Qian Yang seemed to have thought of something: "It means that because he had seen similar stones before, he instinctively knew what the stone looked like inside, which should be the same as your array plate."
"How can he explain that he can distinguish between two rough stones that look similar?" Wu Qingshui's eyes lit up.
"It's because the two stones that look similar are actually different, but it's hard to describe them." Qian Yang understood what Wu Qingshui meant.
Wu Qingshui opened his eyes widened: "I just want to find this 'undescribable' thing. This is the gap between my array plate and the top stone master."
Qian Yang buried his head in thought.
Wu Qingshui almost tore off his hair.
Finally, Qian Yang spoke tentatively: "Maybe we can think about it the other way around. Every stone in the world is different. Any raw stone he saw when the stone master saw was something he had never seen before. If he wanted to judge whether a stone was good or bad, he needed to find out the common characteristics of some stones he had seen before from this stone.
"That's right!" Wu Qingshui nodded.
"But, the stones are not exactly the same, and the characteristics are not exactly the same. The stone master can find the common points between the two stones from different characteristics, but strangely feel that the characteristics of these two stones are exactly the same." Qian Yang continued.
Wu Qingshui thought for a while and said, "Are you talking about two different stones, there may be the same kind of 'undescribable'?"
"That's what it means!" Qian Yang nodded.
"Then how can I find it?" Wu Qingshui asked.
Qian Yang's eyes were deep: "If you ignore the fantasy things like Lingjue, then this 'undescendant' can only exist on the appearance of the raw stone."
Wu Qingshui nodded: "That is to say, in the appearance of the original stone, there is a detail that the stone master can feel but cannot describe. It is this detail that has achieved what the stone master calls "spiritual enlightenment"!"
"That's right!" Qian Yang smiled: "These details cannot be distinguished by the naked eye, but the stone master imprinted it in his subconscious mind, so he can extract it when needed."
"Can't tell the difference between the naked eye? Can the formation plate be distinguished?" Wu Qingshui frowned.
Qian Yang blinked his eyes: "I have a bold idea!"
"What's your thought?" Wu Qingshui asked hurriedly.
Qian Yang said: "You can completely divide the image of the rough stone skin into countless extremely small squares, or simply countless dots, so that all the details of the skin can be analyzed in place."
"Analysis one by one?" Wu Qingshui shook his head: "The workload is too high, and it cannot be done."
"No, no." Qian Yang shook his head: "When the image becomes dots one by one, there is no need to consider size, shape, particles, etc. The difference between dots will be very small. What do you think will be the difference between dots?"
Wu Qingshui thought for a moment and replied firmly: "Color! From the perspective of the image, the only difference between points of the same size is color!"
"By the way!" Qian Yang nodded: "We can use different numbers to represent different colors, so that any point on any stone can be represented by numbers. If you want to know what the outer skin of a raw stone looks like, just divide it into small enough dots and then connect adjacent dots with numbers. In this way, the outer skin of a stone becomes an extremely long numbered string."
"In the future, we want to find the similarity between the two raw stones, so we just need to compare the number string."
"And this number string can also be used separately. For example, there are about several number strings of coniferous pine flowers, several number strings of Baotou pine flowers, and several number strings of python belts. Combined with the internal shape of the raw stone, we can easily find out what kind of number string represents excellent internal shape, and what kind of number string represents garbage."
"When our database is rich enough and we want to identify a rough stone, we just need to crack its number string to know what it looks like inside."
"I believe that the conclusions drawn in this way must have a very considerable accuracy."
Qian Yang's saliva splashed, and Wu Qingshui was stunned when he heard it.
After Qian Yang finished speaking, Wu Qingshui's saliva had already dripped to the ground.
"How is it? Do you think it's feasible?" Qian Yang was as nervous as a child who was waiting to announce his final exam results.
Wu Qingshui let out a long breath, then rushed to Qian Yang, held him in his arms, and shouted: "You are a genius!"
Qian Yang kicked him far away: "Don't touch me!"
Wu Qingshui rushed back, his face full of excitement, grabbed Qian Yang's shoulder with both hands and shook it constantly: "Do you know, you are really a genius! Second only to me!"
"Get out!" Qian Yang shook off Wu Qingshui who had already gone crazy and sighed a little shyly: "I am indeed a genius."
Wu Qingshui was stunned.
Qian Yang continued, "I am a genius because I am standing on the shoulders of a giant."
"Why are you standing on my shoulder?" Wu Qingshui began to be silly.
Qian Yang was too lazy to pay attention to him.
"Then the next thing will be simple." Wu Qingshui suppressed his excitement: "On the one hand, we continue to collect data on the raw stone, and on the other hand, we step up the calculation of the raw stone number string."
"Is that easy to calculate?" Qian Yang asked.
Wu Qingshui nodded: "It's not difficult. I'll just write another program for calculation. It's just that the calculation volume is a bit large. It may take a lot of time to turn all the data in the previous database into a number string."
"How long did that last?" Qian Yang asked.
"Don't worry, just calculate it slowly." Wu Qingshui didn't care: "We just continue to collect data. The calculations can be automatically completed. After it is calculated, we will go out to bet on stones, and we will earn half of the money we earn!"
Qian Yang was stupid: "Gambling on stones? Don't you want to sell array plates?"
Wu Qingshui gave him a blank look: "Are you stupid? How much money can you make by selling array plates? I used to think that I couldn't make money by gambling stones on my array plates, so I thought about selling array plates to get back funds. Now I can make a lot of money, and only fools will sell the tools to make money to others!"
Qian Yang snorted: "A fickle man!"
Wu Qingshui smiled and said, "Then do you plan to make money by relying on your own stone master's skills?"
Qian Yang was stunned and then showed a shy smile: "I'd better go bet on stones with you!"
A fickle man!
