Re: Request for a mentor

[Abhishek Sharma]

Hello Utkarsh,

- Please refer the link below which has links to get started and look for
projects.
https://community.apache.org/newcomers/

- Two of the ML projects:
OpenNLP  and Mahout
. You can search for more.

It is good to ask for help but it is also important to be respectful of
others time so next time if you get stuck please mention the effort you
have put in and where exactly you are stuck. Feel free to browse through
other Apache projects and pick one that excites you the most.

Best,

RE: Request for a mentor

[Ross Gardler]

It sounds like you already found 
http://community.apache.org/gettingStarted/101.html if not start there.

Apache is all about helping oneself. To find people willing to mentor you it is 
recommended you show up with evidence you will return more value than time you 
ask for. Everyone here is a volunteer and had their own drivers, which usually 
prioritize the production of strong coding communities. So if you arrive at a 
project that interests your and offer contributions, then you'll find people 
will help you.

In your mail you identify areas of interest but have not defined a specific 
project of interest.you indicate you are confused by our projects page. 
That's fine. It just means you have yet to find something that excites you.

I recommend you read blogs that cover your area of interest. Find tutorials 
that look cool. Ruin through them. Learn which projects are used within them. 
Then come back to the page linked above and file the practical advice wiring it 
for those specific projects

Hi Roman,

I have gone through the Apache projects page multiple times and came out
hopelessly confused. My primary research interests are Artificial
Intelligence and Machine Learning, but apart from that, I love to find out
clever solutions to complicated problems. I also love to learn about new
technologies and how they might grow to influence us. I am less interested
in front-end but more in the cogs-and-wheels which make the things run.
I would love to work in anything related to machine learning, big data or
any other area which could use me. What I might lack in knowledge, I will
make up in willingness to learn and my enthusiasm to contribute.

Thanks,
Anirudh Jain

Re: Request for a mentor

[Ted Dunning]

Check out the following projects:

Singa  (this would be very good
because it is pretty cutting edge and is in incubation)
Mahout  (especially the Samsara portion)
Spark  (especially the MLLib sub-project)
Madlib 

Incubator projects may be particularly good for you since they will tend to
be much more welcoming to newcomers because they are in growth phase
instead of maintenance mode.
