I should have been more precise. Well, by graduated I meant finished my undergraduate studies. I am currently pursuing my masters degree at faculty of engineering, Ain Shams University. Additionally, I am giving weekly tutorials to undergraduate students as a teacher assistant.

So I'm a little bit confused. -- Jonathan сб, 6 апр. 2019 г. в 12:48, Amr Mohamed Hosny Anwar <amr.ke...@eng.asu.edu.eg<mailto:amr.ke...@eng.asu.edu.eg>>: Hi Jonathan, Yes, Google can accept masters and PhD students into the GSoC program. According to the rules page: "be enrolled in or accepted into an accredited institution, including a college, university, masters program, PhD program, and/or undergraduate program, as of the Acceptance Date;" Thanks for noting that.

If you have already graduated, then are you eligible for GSoC? -- Jonathan On Sat, Mar 16, 2019, 14:00 Amr Mohamed Hosny Anwar <amr.ke...@eng.asu.edu.eg<mailto:amr.ke...@eng.asu.edu.eg>> wrote: Dear all, My name is Amr Keleg. I am currently working as a teacher assistant at the Computer and systems department, Faculty of engineering, Ain shams university, Cairo, Egypt. I have graduated from faculty of engineering, Ain shams university in 2017 as the first of my class of 138 students. I am interested in NLP and I am very excited to contribute to Apertium. I worked as a full-time engineer for nearly a year and my role was implementing a sentiment analysis model for the Arabic language but from a machine learning point of view. I know that developing rule-based solutions requires both efforts and deep knowledge. I am currently pursuing my master's degree and the GSoC program will allow me to explore the NLP field more. I am looking forward to learning from Apertium's maintainers and developers. I have participated in GSoC2016<https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/archive/2016/projects/5461783343005696/> and contributed to the GNU Octave project. I learned a lot throughout the programme and worked with new technologies and tools. Since then, I have made some contributions to open source projects like: gensim, cltk and asciinema. I am willing to contribute to Apertium and become a regular maintainer. I am interested in the "Unsupervised weighting of automata" project. I have already installed Apertium and tried the Arabic-Maltese model. I will start working on the coding challenge. I would like to contact the project's mentors so that we can discuss the project's details. Thanks and looking forward to collaborating with you.
