Hello,
I can't offer to mentor because I don't know anything about symbolic
regression.
However, since you have R/C++ as the skills requirements, I would
strongly recommend that you use Rcpp as an enabling technology, so that
you can be productive on C++/symbolic regressions as opposed to manage R
API quirks.
Also, you can count on some implicit support through Rcpp mailing list.

Good luck finding a mentor, this sounds like a cool project.

Hi all,
I am looking to extend the regression and data analysis capabilities of R
through Symbolic Regression that can potentially find implicit equation
relationships in the input data. You can find my project proposal at:

I am looking for a mentor to guide me through the summer on the project
under the Google Summer Of Code program (GSOC 2010) with relevant experience
in Symbolic Regression or Genetic Programming in general.
