I am writing to express my strong interest in the postdoctoral position in Machine Learning, Computer Vision, Deep Learning and/or IoT Security in your research group at [Institution/University Name]. With a perusing of Ph.D. degree in Computer Science and Technology from University of Electronic Science and Technology of China and extensive experience in machine learning, computer vision, I am eager to contribute to the cutting-edge research conducted by your team.

During my doctoral research, I focused on application of machine learning and/or computer vision for botnet detection. My dissertation, titled "IoT Botnet Analysis and Machine Learning based Detection," developed novel approaches in conventional and advanced machine learning methods to address challenges in IoT botnet attack classification. This work resulted in publications and publicly available datasets, including a publication in Computers and Electrical Engineering Journal (IF=4.0), International Journal of Machine Learning and Cybernetics (IF=3.1) and datasets reposted in Mendeley and IEEE dataport repositories.

In addition to my doctoral work, I have attended and certified Good Financial Grants Practices (GFGP)/Plenary Session, Developing Winning Grant Proposals and Grant Management by APHRC under Catalyze Impact Initiative project, further enhancing my expertise in writing grant proposal, Budgeting for Research/project, Implementation Plan and Methods, Project Risk Management and sustainability, Engaging Funders and Winning Grant Proposals Developing a Comprehensive MEL Dissemination and Communication Strategy. These experiences have equipped me with strong skills in developing competitor research/project proposal for grant and a deep understanding of winning grants for proposal.
