Hi Artem,

This sounds very cool!  Thank you for sharing. :)

There are a few open you might consider looking at, although not all are
related to deep learning specifically:

https://github.com/mlpack/mlpack/issues/1152
https://github.com/mlpack/mlpack/issues/922
https://github.com/mlpack/mlpack/issues/891
https://github.com/mlpack/mlpack/issues/919

I just picked a few; there are lots of others on Github that might also
be interesting to you.  And of course, if you see that some
functionality you would like is missing, you are always welcome to
contribute it.
