Statement of Purpose Northumbria University

Vinith Varan is introducing himself and his background in a statement of purpose for a Masters program in Artificial Intelligence at Northumbria University. He completed his B.Tech in Information Technology in India with good grades. He has knowledge of programming languages like Python and Java. For his undergraduate project, he used machine learning to predict cardiac disease. He is interested in machine learning and did another project using deep learning to detect skin cancer, which won an award. He believes the Masters program will allow him to further explore AI topics to advance his skills and contribute to applying AI in different fields through research.

STATEMENT OF PURPOSE

It's my pleasure to introduce myself. I'm Vinith varan and raised in


Mannargudi (INDIA). I have done my schooling in Laurel Higher secondary
School, pattukottai with 88.6%, then I did my higher secondary from Laurel
Higher Secondary School, pattukottai with 68.1% and now I have successfully
completed my degree B.Tech (Information Technology) from Hindustan
University, Chennai(INDIA)with 70%.

I have good knowledge of the programming languages Python, Java,


HTML, PHP. I have done a Project at the college level. The project name is
Prediction of Cardiac Disease using Machine Learning. This project is using
Machine learning in artificial intelligence. Machine learning is a subfield of
artificial intelligence, which is broadly defined as the capability of a machine to
imitate intelligent human behavior. Artificial intelligence systems are used to
perform complex tasks in a way that is similar to how humans solve problems.

The goal of AI is to create computer models that exhibit “intelligent


behaviors” like humans, according to Boris Katz, a principal research scientist
and head of the Info Lab Group at CSAIL. This means machines that can
recognize a visual scene, understand a text written in natural language, or perform
an action in the physical world. Machine learning is one way to use AI. It was
defined in the 1950s by AI pioneer Arthur Samuel as “the field of study that gives
computers the ability to learn without explicitly being programmed.”

I have participated in college level exhibition, the project named


“Skin Cancer Detection Using Deep Learning” using machine deep learning
language was awarded as best project. Skin cancer is a dangerous and widespread
disease each year there are approximately 5.4 million new cases of skin cancer are
recorded in USA alone. The global statistics are equally alarming. Recent reports
show that from 2008 to 2018, there has been a 53% increase in new melanoma
cases diagnosed annually. The mortality rate of this disease is expected to rise in
the next decade. The survival rate is less than 14% if diagnosed in later stages.
However, if the skin cancer is detected at early stages then the survival rate is
nearly 97%. This demands the early detection of skin cancer. This paper addresses
the issue of early diagnosis, with improved accuracy.

Now, I believe the Master’s Program in Artificial Intelligence MSC


offered by Northumbria University will allow me to explore in detail each topic
and guide me further to the next level and provide me with the resources in order
in this field. Applications of Artificial Intelligent can literally be used in any field
to work on the data available, which is a lot in this modern data-driven era. It can
be applied to any field, like Biology, Power Generation, Education, Governmental
organizations etc. by working on the available robotics to find a pattern and make
good use of it in order to enhance the overall process.

The best thing that excites me about the University is the


intercultural research community and the support, in terms of guidance and
unrestricted lab access, given to them in order to implement their ideas. I would
really love to be a part of such community and learn as much as I can while
sharing my ideas in the process. That, I believe, is the flexibility of Artificial
Intelligence, where the skills can be applied to any field and the results thus
obtained could be an Integral part of a process that positively impacts the lives of
people. I would really be honored to begin my Journey in the Artificial Intelligent
in Northumbria University and contribute as much as possible.
