外企头条：山姆中国首家旗舰店落户上海

沃尔玛旗下的会员制超市品牌山姆会员商店25日宣布，将在上海开设旗舰店，预计2021年内开业，这是山姆在上海的第三家店。

同时，这也是山姆会员店在中国开设的首家旗舰店，坐落于上海自贸区外高桥新发展园区，建筑总体量约7万平方米，是山姆会员店在国内运营的最大的独栋建筑，覆盖了餐饮、娱乐、生活及教育等领域，还提供了可容纳1100个车位的停车场。

1996年，中国第一家山姆会员商店落户深圳，成为大陆地区首家会员制超市。目前，山姆会员商店在国内共运营着26家门店。预计到2022年底，山姆在中国将有40至45家开业及在建门店。在会员数量上，山姆服务超过280万名中国会员，较2015年会员数量翻倍。

山姆会员商店中国业务总裁文安德表示：“山姆深耕中国20多年，一直与会员共同成长，特别是近几年，我们强烈地感受到了来自中国会员的信任和喜爱，这让我们非常骄傲，也激励我们不断进步，继续回馈会员。山姆中国旗舰店代表了我们对会员和中国市场的承诺。”

英特尔研发能嗅出危险化学品气味芯片

Intels Neuromorphic Chip Can Sniff Out Hazardous Chemicals

英特尔研究院与美国康奈尔大学的研究人员在《自然-机器智能》杂志上联合发表的一篇论文，展示了英特尔神经拟态研究芯片Loihi在存在明显噪声和遮盖的情况下学习和识别危险化学品的能力。

In a joint paper published in Nature Machine Intelligence， researchers from Intel Labs and Cornell University demonstrated the ability of Intels neuromorphic research chip， Loihi， to learn and recognize hazardous chemicals in the presence of significant noise and occlusion。

Loihi仅需单一样本便可学会识别每一种气味，且不会破坏它对先前所学气味的记忆。

Loihi learned each odor with just a single sample， without disrupting its memory of previously learned scents。

英特尔和美国康奈尔大学的研究人员采用了一套源自大脑嗅觉回路结构和动力学的神经算法，对英特尔Loihi神经拟态芯片进行训练，使其能够学习和识别10种危险化学品的气味。

Using a neural algorithm derived from the architecture and dynamics of the brain‘s olfactory circuits， researchers from Intel and Cornell trained Intel’s Loihi neuromorphic research chip to learn and recognize the scents of 10 hazardous chemicals。

为此，研究团队采用了一个由72个化学传感器活动组成的数据集以便对这些气味作出反应，并在Loihi芯片上配置了生物嗅觉的电路图。

To do so， the team used a dataset consisting of the activity of 72 chemical sensors in response to these smells and configured the circuit diagram of biological olfaction on Loihi。

这款芯片迅速掌握了每种气味的神经表征，即便在明显掩蔽情况下也能识别出每种气味，这充分证明了未来神经科学与人工智能交叉研究的广阔前景。

The chip quickly learned the neural representation of each of the smells and recognized each odor， even when significantly occluded， demonstrating a promising future for the intersection of neuroscience and artificial intelligence。
