The Model Has a Problem (Part 2)

下午xià wǔ,李明lǐ míng的de模型mó xíng终于zhōng yú跑pǎo完wán了le,可是kě shì结果jié guǒ看起来kàn qǐ lai有点yǒu diǎn奇怪qí guài。

In the afternoon, Li Ming's model finally finished running, but the results looked a bit strange.

他tā发现fā xiàn有yǒu一部分yī bù fen数据shù jù缺失quē shī,可能kě néng是shì在zài上传shàng chuán的de时候shí hou出chū了le问题wèn tí。

He found that some data was missing, probably due to an issue during uploading.

于是yú shì他tā检查jiǎn chá每měi一天yī tiān的de记录jì lù,还hái把bǎ数值shù zhí重新chóng xīn整理zhěng lǐ了le一遍yī biàn。

So he checked the records for each day and reorganized the numbers again.

小浩xiǎo hào看到kàn dào他tā皱zhòu着zhe眉头méi tóu,就jiù问wèn:“需要xū yào我wǒ帮忙bāng máng吗ma?”

Xiǎo Hào saw him frowning and asked, "Do you need my help?"

李明lǐ míng摇摇头yáo yáo tóu:“不用bù yòng,我wǒ先xiān试试shì shi调tiáo一下yī xià参数cān shù。”

Li Ming shook his head: "No need, I'll try adjusting the parameters first."

他tā把bǎ其中qí zhōng一个yī ge参数cān shù调tiáo小xiǎo一点yī diǎn,再次zài cì执行zhí xíng模型mó xíng,希望xī wàng能néng得到dé dào更gèng稳定wěn dìng的de结果jié guǒ。

He lowered one of the parameters and ran the model again, hoping for more stable results.

等待děng dài的de时间shí jiān很hěn长cháng,他tā只好zhǐ hǎo去qù倒dào一yī杯bēi水shuǐ放松fàng sōng一下yī xià。

The waiting time was long, so he could only get a cup of water and relax a bit.
