Hi Jiaqi, Thanks for getting in touch. If you are interested in the benchmarking project, I'd suggest getting familiar with the code: https://github.com/zoq/benchmarks There is also an issue open now that could provide as a good starting point: https://github.com/mlpack/mlpack/issues/886 The model zoo could also be made into a GSoC project (or part of a GSoC project); if you'd like to propose something in this direction, be sure that whatever you propose has a clear plan associated with it. I think that the idea of the model zoo is still not fully formalized, so there would still be some design work to do. Marcus might already have further ideas about how that could work, so I'll defer to his perspective on how the whole thing should be put together. Let me know if I can clarify anything I've written here. Thanks, Ryan -- Ryan Curtin | "I am the luckiest man alive!"
