[mlpack] Prospective student for GSOC 2017: Willingness to contribute

[Marcus Edel]

Hello Kumaranath,

Welcome and thanks for getting in touch. Since you haven't asked any specific question,
let me point you to some helpful links. One interesting link, if you have not
already seen it, is:

http://www.mlpack.org/involved.html

Also there are a few issues on Github that might be a good place to jump in;
we tag them by difficulty, so here are the "easy" tickets:

https://github.com/mlpack/mlpack/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+label%3A%22D%3A+easy%22

But I see there are not very many right now; There are "moderate"
difficult tickets too:

https://github.com/mlpack/mlpack/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+label%3A%22D%3A+moderate%22

Maybe some of those are interesting? Also, if you would like to implement
machine learning algorithms that mlpack currently doesn't have, contributions
like that are more than welcome.  If you can provide a fast, well-tested
implementation it would be great to include it in mlpack. Let us know if we can
clarify anything further.

Thanks,
Marcus
