CRITIQUE

Dear [Fname],

Your original personal statement had some key strengths, including a fine, quantitative tone, experience in both academia and the industry, and specific rationale for choosing UCL. It’s clear you have completed the preparatory work towards your program at UCL, and none can doubt you numeric skills.

My job as editor was to improve the presentation of your strengths. To that end, I corrected all ESL errors, improved word choice for flow and comprehension, and sold your candidacy as an accomplished individual.

”My interest in technology is rooted deep in my childhood. “

Since this was the opening sentence, it was especially important to begin correctly. Idiomatically speaking, the correct wording is “rooted deep in my childhood” rather than “rooted profound from my youth.”

“At the end of the Artificial Intelligence course, I was involved in a project where I used a multi-threshold neuron model to solve a facial recognition problem. “

Here we had a key achievement. To that end, you model solved “a” rather than “the” facial recognition problem.

“immediately offer a reliable role in the workforce, contributing to making this world a better place.”

With a nice closing, we use “better place” as correct idiomatic English.

The resulting document has been streamlined, resulting in a fluent final presentation.

As part of my edit, I have also checked the “before” and “after” document in Grammarly, which provides sophisticated AI-assisted error-checking. While Grammarly is not perfect and does not scan for substance or organization as we do as human editors and while it can sometimes flag issues that are not actually issues, we have consistently found that successful essays tend to have scores above 90%. We note the original score on the document was 84% and the score on the revised draft is 98%. 

Thank you for choosing EssayMaster. We wish you the very best with this logical, cogent personal statement and hope for your acceptance.

Sincerely,

EDITED ESSAY (the “After”)

My interest in technology is rooted deep in my childhood. Over the years, I have appreciated the beauty in logic and science, witnessing how it has shaped our world for the better. I am always fascinated by the famous question, “Can machines think?”, proposed by Alan Turing. I would like to know if intelligent agents can make decisions about what actions to take next to perform specific given tasks. These include the choice of where to turn and move in a maze, how hard to apply force to a robotic arm, or even the choice of which sensors to use and where to point them in order to solve a task. These are all considered problems of sequential decision making under uncertainty. With my high level of interest in the subject and foundational background experience through my Electrical and Electronic Engineering programme, I am committed to pursuing the Master of Science in Machine Learning programme at the University College London.

My undergraduate studies at the University of Nottingham have contributed to my interest in Machine Learning, and my Electrical and Electronic Engineer degree programme has provided a strong foundation for continuing studies. Through my Introduction to Computer Engineering course, I learned C Programming and software development strategies that I was able to apply in the design of a check-out system for Wal-Mart. In my Software Engineering Design course, I learned C++ programming and designed a bank account program for an ATM as part of our project. With an additional focus on object-oriented languages, I learned Java in the Web-Based Computing course, in which I designed and implemented a real-time, two-dimensional platform game by Netbeans. The degree programme, focusing on a strong mathematics background, provides me with the ability to work in challenging analytical and statistical environments. I was able to utilize my advanced mathematics background in my Artificial Intelligence course, the most relevant to machine learning during my undergraduate studies.  In this course, I was introduced to the mathematical techniques behind the learning strategies of multilayer neural networks and was taught the learning strategies and architecture of radial basis function neural networks. Different fundamental learning strategies, such as supervised learning, unsupervised learning, and statistical learning theory, were compared. 

At the end of the Artificial Intelligence course, I was involved in a project where I used a multi-threshold neuron model to solve a facial recognition problem. I had successfully designed a feedforward backpropagation network and radial basis network receptively by using MATLAB and a database of 400 images. By comparing the classification performance of the two methods, I found that radial curves proved to be more efficient than the backpropagation neural network. The complexity and dimensionality were reduced by robust principal component analysis and radial curve results, revealing a better performance useful in real-time face recognition systems. The system yields a 100% recognition rate accuracy for images from the database. After completing the facial recognition project, I also participated in the face optimization project to improve image resolution through deep learning. I used a large number of low-resolution images and inputted the high-resolution original photos of these images to train the algorithm so that it would determine the differences and increase the resolution skills from the comparison of the two. The facial recognition project, which merged artificial intelligence, machine learning, and deep learning methods, intensified my interest in the field and proved that machines could improve image resolution details accurately without using original photos, another impressive feat that results from the application of machine learning.

To complement my academic experience, my internship experience also prepares me for this degree programme. During my research internship in the Internet of Things and Computer Vision Department of Robert Bosch GmbH, I developed IoT-based real-time detection for the volume of square boxes inside a truck’s cabinet by using an ultrasonic sensor array. The designed system was an embedded device with integrated sensors, Arduino microcontroller, and GSM enable modules. The microcontroller was interconnected with a cloud server to collect, process, and analyse real-time sensor data and send it accurately to the IoT platform, Thingsboard. The generated real-time data can be stored both locally in the SD card and on the IoT platform cloud. The live volume graph was visualized locally by Python and by Dashboard on the IoT platform. This embedded system can provide a solution for monitoring the status of goods and further help achieve scientific management. This experience taught me how to quickly adapt to practical applications of machine learning and thoroughly consider the different solutions at my disposal, including the use of varying technologies and strategies.

UCL's programme attracts me for its rigorous course setting, close industry connections, and strong alumni networks. The programme consists of many optional modules and elective modules in various application fields, which provides me with foundational knowledge in machine learning and deep learning. The heavy emphasis on research and laboratory work, with the opportunity to gain real-world experience before programme completion, is also an important factor in offering a well-rounded programme. Additionally, the programme allows me to select career-orientated courses. I am particularly interested in the Advanced Deep Learning, and Reinforcement Learning and Multi-agent Artificial Intelligence modules, and I will go over module requirements in Machine Vision, Graphical Models, and Applied Machine Learning to determine a more personalized curriculum to fit my career goals. After graduation, I plan to join industry-leading companies such as Google, Intel, and Oracle to learn and grow alongside the developing AI industry. By using knowledge of machine learning and statistical methodologies learned from the program's courses, I can perform various data analytic tasks during scientific experiments in the technology sector and immediately offer a reliable role in the workforce, contributing to making this world a better place.
