Statement of originality

I confirm that the submitted work is my own work. No element has been previously submitted for assessment, or where it has, it has been correctly referenced. I have clearly identified and fully acknowledged all material that should be attributed to others (whether published or unpublished, and including any content generated by a deep learning/artificial intelligence tool, and have also included their source references where relevant) using the referencing system required by my course or in this specific assignment.

I agree that the University may submit my work to means of checking this, such as the plagiarism detection service Turnitin® UK and the Turnitin® Authorship Investigate service. I confirm that I understand that assessed work that has been shown to have been plagiarised will be penalised.
