That sounds awesome, is the code public, did you wrote everything from scratch
or did you use a framework?

Sounds good, note we already have an LSTM implementation, that can be used.
However, there are many LSTM related ideas that could be explored like Nested
LSTMs.

That sounds like a great idea to me, I guess this could be a neat side project
to get familiar with the codebase since it's mainly a conv net, most parts
should already exist.

Let me know if I should clarify anything.

Thanks,
Marcus

[mlpack] Mlpack Gsoc Proposal

2018-02-14 Thread Lepadatu Tiberiu Andrei
Hi,

I am Tiberiu Lepadatu, a second year student at the University Politehnica
of
Bucharest. I have a strong interest in machine learning and numerical
methods. I
use deep learning approaches in my homework for the university or in my
personal
projects (for example I have developed a chat bot that integrates nlp and
ml for
the competition The Voice). I am currently enrolled in the machine learning
course by Andrew NG and i am an avid learner. I have taken the advice that
was
given to me on the IRC channel and i have devoted my time in the past weeks
understanding the neural networks implementation from your library. GSOC
will
give me the write enforcement to develop myself as a student in mashing
Lenin
and as a researcher in this field. I will be more than happy to help you
implement the deep learning modules. I was thinking that i can do over the
summer RBFN or BRN or even LSTM. Also i think that it will be interesting
to do
a implementation of the colorful image colorization and will be suited for
bringing newcomers into the project. All in all, I want you to consider my
ideas
and to give me the proper guidance for this project. Also giving the
research
intensive character of the study that i am proposing i feel like my first
pull
request tot he project will be months in the future.

Kind regards,
Tiberiu Lepdatu
