Chinese Robot Developed by Chengdu Hi-tech Zone Challenged CEE Math Papers

CHENGDU, China, June 9, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- After Google AlphaGo, another artificial intelligence has arrived. As a science-and-technology enterprise, Chengdu Zhunxingyunxue Technology Co., Ltd. seated in Chengdu Hi-tech Zone has developed an AI system AI-MATHS. As an examination robot, it challenged math questions of 2017 Chinese College Entrance Examination (CEE) on June 7th. This examination robot is developed based on Tsinghua University's cutting-edge technologies including big data, artificial intelligence, and natural language recognition, with the automatic question-answering technology as the core.

On the afternoon of June 7th, the examination robot stayed alone in a room, with the external network off and invigilated by specialized persons. After finished reading the questions on e-paper, it began to calculate via the internal server and then gave the answers. AI-MATHS finished multiple examination papers in two hours and the answers were then scored by the teachers. AI-MATHS finished the math paper of liberal arts CEE mock examination of Beijing in 22 minutes and scored 105 points, following by the liberal arts CEE national unified paper II in 10 minutes with a score of 100 points.

AI-MATHS robot programme is led by "Super Brain Plan" of Chinese 863 Program. Lin Hui from Tsinghua University serves as CEO of Zhunxingyunxue. According to Lin, AI-MATHS applies small-scale training, and in order to achieve quick answers, the team increased the number of questions. AI-MATHS currently has 500 sets of examination, a total of 12,000 questions. Thereafter, AI-MATHS will receive large-scale training and flexible expansion ability testing, even involving learning ability in other fields. In the future, AI-MATHS will not only be limited to the field of education, but also turn to the domains of finance, medical treatment, transportation, etc.

The development of the company is strongly supported by the AI basic industries gathered in Chengdu Hi-tech Zone, including software development, cloud computing, big data, networking and intelligent manufacture, and also by the sound talent environment here, Liu Hui also said.
