Hello Gowtham,

Machine learning knowledge is not a prerequisite for all of the mlpack
projects.  There's been some discussion about the Python and R bindings.
Here are some links to previous discussions:

You haven't really asked any specific questions, so I hope that the
message I linked to covers any information you were looking for.  If you
do still have questions, feel free to ask, and I'll answer them.

Thanks,

Ryan
