Dear developers, I am very interested in participating in GSOC-2017 by working at one of your exciting projects. I am a student from Moscow State University, Faculty of Computational Mathematics and Cybernetics, currently pursuing my 1st year of a Master’s degree in Applied Mathematics and Informatics. My main areas of interest areArtificial Intelligence and Machine Learning. The topic of my scientific research is GPU-accelerated neural networks. It is focused on image recognition, I investigate how the architecture of convolutional neural network and GPU characteristics affect the time consumption of forward propagation for a batch of images. The main technologies I use in scientific work are CUDA and cuDNN libraries (both for C++) for programming neural networks and Python for results visualization.

I have experience with reinforcement learning tasks, for instance, inspired by DeepMing articles, I trained neural network (using Keras framework for Python) to play famous game Flappy Bird much better than a human can, that's why I am very interested in GSOC project connected with reinforcement learning. Also I participate in Kaggle competitions and coded my own small library in Python with most useful functions, such as cross-validation, parameters tuning and stacking models. So, I am also interested in project about creating API for cross-validation and models tuning in mlpack.

Thank you for your attention!
