What are your interests and experience? If you use numpy, are there things you would like to fix, or enhancements you would like to see? Chuck I am an undergraduate student with CS as major and have interest in Math and Physics. This has led me to use NumPy and SciPy to work on innumerable

Both scipy and numpy require GSOC candidates to have a pull request accepted as part of the application process. I'd suggest implementing a function not currently in scipy that you think would be useful. That would also help in finding a mentor for the summer. I'd also suggest getting

Scipy doesn't have a function for the Laplace transform, it has only a Laplace distribution in scipy.stats and a Laplace filter in scipy.ndimage. An inverse Laplace transform would be very welcome I'd think - it has real world applications, and there's no good implementation in any open source

With GSoC 2014 being round the corner, I hereby put up few projects for discussion that I would love to pursue as a student. Guidance, suggestions are cordially welcome:- 1. If I am not mistaken, contour integration is not supported by SciPy; in fact even line integrals of real functions is yet

3. As stated earlier, we have spherical harmonic functions (with much scope for dev) we are yet to have elliptical and cylindrical harmonic function, which may be developed. This sounds very doable. How much work do you think would be involved? As Stefan so rightly pointed out, the

If you are interested in the hypergeometric numerical evaluation, it's probably a good idea to take a look at this recent master's thesis written on the problem: http://people.maths.ox.ac.uk/porterm/research/pearson_final.pdfhttp://bl-1.com/click/load/BDEKOABvUWAAYgNhATc-b0231 The thesis is

sp.hyp2f1(10,5,-300.5,0.5) -6.5184949735e+156 The present implementation of the function in scipy, involves one Euler Transform followed by the application of Power Series (as a and b turn negative after Euler Transform is applied once). This most probably blows up the values of function as |c||a|
