Hi Marcus, First of all, sorry for the first letter. Looks like my mail client has *horribly* messed it up. My name is Konstantin Sidorov, and I am an undergraduate student in Astrakhan State University (Russia). I'm glad that mlpack was accepted in GSoC'17 -- as a side note, congratulations ;) I'm interested to work on project "Augmented Recurrent Neural Networks". I'm already familiar with deep learning. For example, recently I've implemented "Learning to play in a day" (https://arxiv.org/abs/1611.01606) for the AgentNet ("Deep Reinforcement Learning library for humans", https://github.com/yandexdataschool/AgentNet). Here is the merged pull request: https://github.com/yandexdataschool/AgentNet/pull/88. Even though my main field of interest is RL, I would be very interested in doing something new -- that is why I've chosen "Augmented RNNs". Of course, on such an early stage I have no detailed plan what (and how) to do -- only some ideas. In the beginning, I'm planning to implement NTM as described in arXiv paper and implement reusable benchmarking code (copy, repeat copy, n-grams). I would like to discuss this project more thoroughly if possible. In addition, this is my first participation in GSoC. So, excuse me if I've done something inappropriate. --- Best regards, Konstantin.
