    time. However, it took me nearly all of the rest of the summer to fully understand why the algorithm can yield better estimation when the sample data is sparse. After several iterations of presentations, I was finally able to clearly explain the proof given in the original paper and even found an improved proof in the end, largely thanks to my research advisor’s constantly pushing me to define variables in the most accurate terms, prove each step rigorously, and trace the author’s logic behind the proof. As I learned more about computer science both in and outside of class, I gradually came to realize that theory is often the hardest part and the key to understanding everything else in any project. Oxford is famous for its theory-heavy computer science curriculum, and I am particularly excited about the prospect of taking Computational Learning Theory, Computational Game Theory, Principles of Programming Languages, and Computer Networks, among other of my proposed courses to take at Oxford. Better yet, I am intrigued to find that Oxford offers the computer science and philosophy dual program, which perfectly caters to my interests in both areas. I still remember myself delightedly and diligently going through the readings for my Minds, Bodies, and Persons course multiple times, highlighting central ideas and scribbling down confusions and random thoughts at the margin. I remember laying out the central arguments and supporting details on a piece of blank paper and weaving…

    may be decided by an algorithm whose running time is bounded by a polynomial. P is the class of all decision problems that are polynomially bounded. The implication is that a decision problem X $ in$ P can be solved in polynomial time on a deterministic computation model . Problems in class P can be solved with algorithms that run in polynomial time. If the running time is some polynomial function of the size of the input**, for instance if the algorithm runs in linear time or quadratic time or…

    Q3. If the second clerk could be added anywhere you choose (and not necessarily to check for violations, as in Question 2), what is the maximum number of applications the process can handle? What is the new configuration? Approach: Analyzed the question, we added one more clerk in step 2 (process and record payment). Then use the formula as question 1 and 2 to calculate. Figure 3.1 Solution: When add the second clerk in step 2, then solve and record payments. We could see the above pictures, 2…

    Throughout the semester, we have explored the importance of considering individual’s unique skills and interests. According to the Theory of Work Adjustment, individual’s abilities, whether they are strengths in areas including special-mechanical, verbal-linguistic, or numerical-quantitative, in conjunction with their interests as can be illustrated by the RIASEC model, inform that individual’s most optimal work environment (Dawis & Lofquist, 1984). Placement in a job that is conducive to that…

    an Olympic Mathematics Competition that I’ve been involved in since I was 9 years old. I became familiar with algorithms like congruence, Horner algorithm and graph theory before I could use a computer. Now as a senior in the school of mathematics at XX University, one of the top three mathematical schools in China. I chose math as my major to build a good mathematical foundation to thoroughly learn about computer science. With strong interests and full preparation, I’m applying to XX School for…

    1024 Chickens Europe has turned to Skynet for farming advice. European Union agriculture commissioner Phil Hogan announced last Friday a multi-billion dollar plan to integrate digital sensors in every aspect of crop production to “produce more with less.” For instance, data from satellites could determine how best to apply fertilizers and pesticides, thus improving efficiency and crop yields. This undertaking would have been unthinkable a decade ago. But a new advance - parallel…

    In a turn in my life, for college, I 've chosen Physics over the Computer Science, lots of factors were involved that here is not a place to discuss. During my bachelor, I tried to use my programming knowledge in a positive way. I tried to take as many computational related courses as it was available. My B.Sc thesis was also simulation related. In a sense, I became a Computational Physicist. But that was not enough. The more I learned the computer related parts of any problem, the deeper my…

    What is your intended major? Discuss how your interest in the subject developed and describe any experience you have had in the field, such as volunteer work, employment, participation in student organizations and activities, and what you have gained from your involvement. My interest in computer science developed because I’m a rebel. My grandfather was a principle of an elementary school, and he thought the computers are evil because the computers and the internet stops people from learning.…

    expression patterns in brain structures at varying levels and different developing stages allows for neuroscientists to explore the critical temporal and spatial events during development. To understand the structural expression, ARA was created to portion the brain into structures during all developmental stages (Zeng,2015). ISH images are accessible more than 1500 genes across many stages of the developing brain (Zeng, 2015). For each gene, ISH was applied to multiple sections of the brain to…
