Hi Govinda,

Welcome to the community.  Your plan sounds good.  You might want to
take a look at http://www.mlpack.org/gsoc.html and
http://www.mlpack.org/involved.html also, if you haven't seen those
already.  Once you are familiar with the structure of the library, feel
free to start making contributions if you find a bug you would like to
solve or functionality you would like to implement. :)

Thanks,

Ryan
