Priority is in the eye of the beholder in Apache land, so scratch the itch you are most interested in. Ultimately, we're interested in having a suite of ML libraries, but you certainly could do worse than to pick something that has proven to be useful, stable and well-used by lots of people over time. I think several of them have been suggested on another related thread, but things like neural nets, linear regression, random forests, self organizing maps are all of interest.

Hi,

No, I don't have any specific interest. I would rather like to work on
implementing algorithm which is of most priority.

Awaiting a response.

Any suggestions please?

Welcome Siddharth. Is there anything machine learning specific that interests
you in particular?

You can also have a look in the Mahout Wiki as well as the jira to find out more on which algorithms are already available and which are still missing.
