BEIJING-- China should become more welcoming for overseas talent and and draw fully on their expertise, Zhang Jianguo, vice minister of human resources and social security said.We should create a better system for international talent to work in China, including assessment and incentive measures, he was quoted as saying by Study Times, a weekly newspaper affiliated to the Party School of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee.Zhang called for the country to be more welcoming towards scientific and technological talent who are capable of making major innovations and promoting technological reform, as well as entrepreneurs and people from all walks of life who have a global and strategic vision.He also recommended giving foreign talent greater say in decision-making in the development of a technology, and allowing them to take part in fund allocation and resource mobilization.A report delivered at the 19th National Congress of the CPC in October 2017 said that talent is a strategic resource for China as it endeavors to achieve national rejuvenation and stay ahead of international competition.We must follow the principle of the Party exercising leadership over personnel, assemble the best minds from across the world and draw fully on their expertise, and step up efforts to make China a talent-strong country, the report said. figured-wristbandblack rubber bracelets meaningprinted-wristbandcustom-wristbandsbest friend rubber bracelets
BEIJING - Building a space station, probing Mars, setting up a lunar base and going deeper into the universe - artificial intelligence will be at the cutting edge of China's space odyssey.China is stepping up development of artificial intelligence (AI) technology to support its space programs, Zhang Duzhou, a member of the Chinese Association of Automation and the Chinese Society of Astronautics, told a space conference in Harbin, capital of Northeast China's Heilongjiang province.Back in 1995, Yang Jiachi, a leading contributor to the development of China's first satellite about half a century ago, proposed developing technology for the intelligent autonomous control of spacecraft.Experts are now developing AI technologies in visual image recognition, visual tracking, rendezvous and docking, navigation and positioning, mission planning and spacecraft fault diagnosis, said Zhang.Some Chinese spacecraft have been endowed with the preliminary ability of autonomous task-planning.For instance, Tianzhou-1, China's first cargo spacecraft launched in April 2017, accomplished autonomous fast rendezvous and docking with the Tiangong-2 space lab. The rendezvous and docking time was shortened from three days to six and a half hours thanks to AI.AI technology also aided the Chang'e-3 lunar probe, launched in 2013, to touch down softly on the Moon. The probe's lander was capable of hovering and choosing a suitable landing site on its own.However, Zhang said, China's space AI is still "weak". If AI technologies are divided into six levels, China is at level two or level three. The technology at level six, the highest level, can enable spacecraft to perform automatic reasoning and independent thinking in orbit."Our aim is to reach level six," Zhang said.AI technology is especially useful for spacecraft that are expensive, hard to repair, doing complicated tasks, deployed in a rigorous space environment, or so far from Earth that they respond to directions very slowly, said Zhang.With AI, spacecraft could acquire the abilities of self-learning, autonomous perception and planning and self-decision, thus lowering the cost of operation and increasing the quality, safety, reliability and flexibility of space missions.The development of AI will bring breakthroughs to China's space industry, he added. 24-hour-wristbands80s rubber braceletsmedical id silicone wristbandscartier rubber braceletdebossed-wristband<%2fcenter>
