Master's in Artificial Intelligence: Cognitive Computing
Radboud University
Nijmegen, Netherlands
Dear Members of the Admissions Committee,
I am writing to convey my profound interest in the Master's program in Artificial Intelligence: Cognitive Computing at Radboud University. My intrigue with artificial intelligence was ignited during my undergraduate studies in Computer Science, which I completed under the auspices of the Indian Embassy Scholarship Program (COMPEX 2018-19). Throughout my academic journey, I have been deeply engaged with the transformative potential of AI to actualize concepts and augment human creativity and capabilities.
A significant milestone in my educational experience was my engagement with the seminal paper "Attention Is All You Need," which introduced me to the principles of Transformers and parallel processing. This exposure broadened my understanding of the extensive possibilities within the field of AI and motivated me to investigate its practical applications. I applied this theoretical knowledge in my project titled "Detection of Rice Disease Using Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) and Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN)," where I developed a system aimed at assisting farmers with the early detection of rice diseases. This endeavor not only refined my technical competencies but also reinforced my aspiration to utilize AI for the betterment of society.
My dedication to addressing real-world challenges through AI was further solidified when I presented my research paper "SustainAI: Enhancing Sustainable Energy Forecasting" at the CSEAi 2023 Conference at California University. In this work, I examined the role of AI in advancing sustainability initiatives by enhancing energy forecasting models. This experience underscored the substantial impact that AI can exert on global challenges and crystallized my ambition to contribute meaningfully to this domain.
The Master's program in Artificial Intelligence: Cognitive Computing at Radboud University is particularly appealing to me due to its focus on the neuro-cognitive underpinnings of human cognition and the application of this knowledge to the development of intuitive AI systems. I am especially interested in courses such as Probabilistic Deep Learning and Applied Machine Learning, which align with my objective of creating AI solutions that closely emulate human cognitive processes.
The prospect of collaborating with experts at the Donders Institute for Brain, Cognition, and Behaviour is highly attractive. I am convinced that the integration of insights from cognitive neuroscience with AI can facilitate the creation of more sophisticated and user-centric technologies. The interdisciplinary framework at Radboud University offers an ideal setting for me to enhance my knowledge and skills in this area.
I am confident that my academic background, coupled with my enthusiasm for harnessing AI to tackle real-world issues, positions me as a strong candidate for your program. I am eager to contribute to the Radboud University community and to engage with faculty and peers who share my passion for artificial intelligence and cognitive computing.
Thank you for considering my application. I look forward to the opportunity to join your program and to advance my studies at Radboud University.
Sincerely,
Diwakar Adhikari
