機率與統計的應用

生活中到處充滿著不確定性，例如吃飯排隊的等候時間、機台生產的良率、民調統計數字的分析等等。工業系也開設許多相關的課程，例如品質管制、資料分析、智慧製造、實驗設計、機器學習、人工智慧等等，以解決工商業的問題。不確定性和雜訊，也是 (電機、軟工、機械、化工、土木、生醫、材料) 工程系統中常見的問題。

許多人修這門課的時候，很痛苦 (註 1)。除了了解其應用外， 有許多的網路資源：

Nice talks on AI, geopolitics, optimization, SCM, and more

• 20:50 -- 26:20: It is better to skim 10 papers than to read one in detail because you kind of then get 10 points in your cloud of like what might be possible. Or even skim a 100 abstracts because what you want to be able to do is connect you know important idead that have not yet been connected.... Try lots of things that might not work. Some of them will.
• Taking fundamental courses in a field is important so you have a solid background to engage in research or development. For beginners in research, thoroughly reading a high-quality paper is essential to master the research problem and understand the technical presentation.
• You can track researchers in your research field using Google Scholar. Best paper awards in top journals or conferences are also excellent sources. You can also search for "classic or famous paper[s] in [your field]" to find the fundamental papers in that field.
• The engineers need to read one paper per week, and five persons need to present their experiments in one AI department with 100 persons at TSMC.
• Reading history books to understand human nature and society can be highly useful.
• 45:42 -- end: Good question and answer
