Hello Ahmed, Thank you for your email! Let's include Giovanni and our mailing list in the CC
The very first step would be to contribute to the Shogun repository on Github by sending at least one patch, which can be really anything (e.g. fixing a bug, add an example to our cookbook, etc.). To get an idea, please have a look at our entrance tasks [1]. Note that this is a sort of a hard requirement to be considered for the GSoC (as it is stated in the "Getting Started" guide [2]). For the GSoC project itself, I would advise you to first document yourself on the topic (e.g. by reading some of the suggested papers in the project page). Then, you should draft a basic outline of how you would approach this problem. It should be like a plan of the things you want to do (e.g. we do data analysis first, then we will use the models X and Y, etc.). Then we can start discussing a bit more about it. Cheers, Fernando.
