Fireside | 剪燭西窗23 牛津大學統計機器學習博士生，聖保羅男女中學舊生 Mr. Alan Chau 23 University of Oxford PhD student in Statistical Machine Learning, Mr. Alan Chau @ FiresideInterviewer: Wendy Chong, Lawrence Ng, Caton Kwok, Chu Cheuk Hei採訪者：蔣沛芸、吳業澧、郭峰瑜、朱卓熹您認為SPCC和Oxford在校園生活，同學間的關係以及其他的方面，有什麼不同呢？中學和大學的分別在於大學是自由很多的，選擇讀不讀書是你自己的事。除非你是想走學術那條路，一級榮耀畢業並不是那麼重要。很多大公司寧願你多點工作經驗好過你考個全級第一。中學就不一樣了--香港的中學就是很辛苦的，他們會想讓你爬得越高越好，讀好書，不要想那麼多。上到大學就已經沒有人叫你死讀書，教授也不會多理你，不會像中學老師一樣有心思去督促你們，因為學到多少是你們的，教授也沒辦法把知識塞給你們。SPCC是一個很好的溫室，大家的家境都不會差到哪裡去，一起去玩。但是上到大學之後，你會遇到很多很不同的人，學校就是個迷你的社會。你會發現聖保羅裡有多少跟你思維差不多的人。但是上到大學之後，每個人有不同的背景，有的可能家境不是那麼好，很努力地讀書；有的可能家境很好，懶著的。上到大學最主要是要找到你自己的定位，自己的朋友。除了大學的自由、多元化，牛津作為一間很厲害的大學，你認為那裡氣氛是較為隨和還是競爭激烈？其實兩件事都有同時發生。有時為了走到更高的位置，與其合作---其實競爭也是一種合作。比如可能有讀書群組，大家都很激烈地討論，很會有些火花。牛津這裡的人有種學術性；我們每個人會對某些事情很執著，也就是每個人都有自己奇怪的點。你說合作點、競爭點，已經不像中學不給你抄我的筆記一樣；而是找工作，找聯係。如果沒有利益衝突，我們通常都會合作，因為大家都會多了個認識的人。您原本是修數據與統計學，是博士的時候才轉去讀人工智能。人工智能是您小時候就有的興趣還是您上了大學才慢慢感興的？人工智能這個字我是大學才聽過。我高中的時候，我的理想是讀醫。這不需要講了，這是香港人共同的夢想，大家都想讀醫、讀法律。但是為什麼我們會有這個夢想呢？是我們想救人，還是社會給我們的一個規範，讀得好書就要去讀醫、讀法律？我選數學是因為我數學很好，就很自然去讀。我也很喜歡數學，喜歡那種公正，邏輯。數學就是以邏輯推論，是有個一定的答案的，不像哲學很多時候沒答案，大家相信不同的東西就有不同的理論。數學就是在不安穩的世界裡的安穩，因此很舒服。而選機器學習就因為它能找到工作。以前的人認為讀了數學你不去做數學老師，就是去做大學教授。可是在現今，這已是一個錯的觀念，因為很多地方都是需要數學的。很多科目，例如社會科學，經濟學，醫學等都會用很多統計。所以，我喜歡人工智能是因為我見到它的實用價值，也見到它的美。有什麼驅使您改變了您讀醫學的計畫？所有人的思考都限制於自己知道什麼。我小時候我知道的就是，聰明的孩子就要讀醫，我的選擇在我面前只有醫學和法律；而我英文不是特別好，所以選擇讀醫，是一個很自然的選擇。但是，其實世界更大，不是只限於香港。上到大學你自然會知道的了，但是問題就是你們還沒上大學，你們也沒有這些知識做選擇。去了英國之後，發現這裡的人不太注重讀書，他們更重視知識。這裡沒香港那麼多科；但是正正因為沒有這麼多科要顧及，我每一科都能花相應的時間去真正理解當中的知識。就好像數學，我可以慢慢地咀嚼，研究為什麼他們要出這樣一條問題。從中我就發覺，我讀書不是為了複製老師叫過我去做的事，不是做個齒輪，去得到一樣的答案；而是是要思考。所以您是否應為中四去了英國讀書，才見識到除了醫科，其他地方發展都有不少機會？嗯，是這麼說，但是我也不會完全說是去英國的好。留在香港的人也會自在自然然地來到這個點。對我來講去英國是離鄉別井，一個人去到陌生的環境；家人很遠，又不常打電話；住的地方網絡很差，想打電動遊戲都不行。那種情況下自然讓你思考更多。你有一個不同的環境，沒有事可做，那你可以想什麼？想自己。那你想著想著就會想得出來。在劍橋和牛津之間，您是如何選擇的呢？當年你報劍橋，除了要考A level，六七月還要多考一次試，他們才會告訴你進不進得了。但是，牛津只要在十月的時候考一次試，做個面試；如果那時拿到了學位，那我只要達到應有的成績，就一定進得了。但劍橋就是除了考基本的A level，之後還要考一個他們很難的一個STEPS數學試。所以對我來講，衡量了兩間的進讀方法，既然兩間都是高尚學府，肯定是選更容易的那個。您如果能再選一次，會到英國升學，還是會回來香港或去美國呢？應該不會想回香港了，因為香港會訓練出不同的人出來，不評論好不好但是會跟我們想象中的不一樣。美國那邊就很不同，那邊大學的制度就是，你說你讀數學，但是可以去上法律的課堂。我有個讀數學的朋友，他法律還比數學懂得更多。但我這個人更適合專才，寧願有一技之長。通才不是問題，但我的看法是你要先成為一個專才，才慢慢變為通才。您以一級榮譽畢業，現在讀了博士，將來會不會向研究、學界那方面發展呢？我未必會。有些人很有趣，認為讀了博士之後就一定在學界方面，然而現在社會中未必如此。例如，人工智能這科的實用性很大。你拿部手機出來，裡面的工程式都是我們想出來的；但是這一科的難度，就需要讀博士的訓練，需要很多反思和研究，精挑細琢。學界對我來說是很舒服的。我不排除我四十歲時去做個教授，但我現在想出來社會看看世界。那您是不是想走一個更有創意的路線？我是比較喜歡做對我來說有些意義的東西；去解決一些好玩，困難，或者只有很少數人能解決的問題。例如，我當時幫我的朋友做了一個諮詢的項目，用我的知識幫他做了個機器學習人工智能的東西。您的履歷上有項叫「快速閱讀」的東西。那是什麼？您當時是怎樣學的？與其說我學「快速閱讀」，我學的是「快速學習」。你會發現從小到大你一直在讀書。可是，有沒有人教過你怎樣讀書？有沒有人教過你怎樣思考，用什麼框架去學習？很多人都在摸索這件事。「快速學習」就是去學怎樣去學東西，加快你人生很多的部分。比如說抄筆記和寫筆記，其實是很不同的東西。我會把課堂的內容從頭到尾重整出來；只有這樣自己寫一次出來，才能模仿教授寫教材的心態。有什麼位子要注意，不同知識之間的邏輯聯係，寫一次才能明白。「快速學習」的小技巧包括怎樣將概念簡單地圖像化、怎樣將新舊概念聯繫起來，以便記起、怎樣透過寫教材、教別人去深化自己的理解等。這些聽起來好像很普通，但在現實生活裡又有多少人真的這樣做呢？學習怎麼學習是我成功之路。也留意到您有考一個沖泡咖啡的試。您為什麼對沖咖啡有興趣？在疫情之下要找個興趣，不可二十四小時都在工作。你越老就會開始想：我花這麼多時間讀書又沒有意思呢？假若你是個讀書很好的人，你不讀書又有什麼做呢？你也要有自己的生活。對我來說，我的生活就是做一些我覺得有趣的事。興趣每個人都不同，但我很喜歡完善我的興趣。沖咖啡有趣的是其事咖啡是一名很深的學問。你沖手沖咖啡不用說器具會有影響，濾紙、水溫、水質、咖啡豆磨的多細等不同的因數，你轉一點就會有飲得出的分別。自己作為一個博士這樣說有點諷刺，但我覺得要找個平衡。掌握知識固然重要，但你中間認識的人，發展了的社交技能，往往比你讀書更重要。您其中一個興趣是象棋。有必勝的機器的情況之下，您會不會覺得人做不完美就沒了意義？重點是過程，不是結果。唱歌也是；我唱歌某情度上沒有創作過任何東西。從結果來看，做這些事是沒有意義，但做的過程當中令人愉悅。象棋重點不在於贏，而是在於思考的過程，還有於對方的隔空對話。您說過您喜歡完善您的興趣，您覺得您是個完美主義者嗎？我未必是個完美主義者，因為如果我是個完美主義我都幾失敗。我距離心中的完美很遠，而完美這字是很傻的。世間沒有完美，因為一定有辦法可以進步。我會說我是個進步主義者...因字數限制請在此閲讀完整文本：https://bit.ly/3xsj25J編輯：周先翼Editor: Zoey Zhou

Fakultät für Chemie und Pharmazie - Digitale Hochschulschriften der LMU - Teil 02/06NoRC, a novel chromatin remodeling complex involved in ribosomal RNA gene silencingRegulation of gene expression takes place in the nucleus in a highly structured and condensed nucleoprotein environment, called chromatin (Felsenfeld and Groudine, 2003; Khorasanizadeh, 2004; Vaquero et al., 2003). A broad group of factors regulates the properties of chromatin; e.g. by covalently modifying histones and / or by ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling, thereby allowing or preventing gene expression.
The mammalian genome contains hundreds of gene copies encoding precursor ribosomal RNA and the transcription of these genes is highly regulated with respect to cellular metabolism (Grummt, 2003). However, even in actively growing cells, only a subset of the rRNA genes are actively transcribed, exhibiting an accessible...
