[mlpack] Student looking to contribute to mlpack

[Rohit Shinde]

Hi,
I am trying to run a test example for mlpack. I used this command:

g++ -lmlpack test.cpp -std=c++11

And I got the following error as output:
In file included from /usr/local/include/mlpack/core.hpp:165:0,
                 from test.cpp:1:
/usr/local/include/mlpack/core/util/save_restore_utility.hpp:19:27: fatal
error: libxml/parser.h: No such file or directory
 #include <libxml/parser.h>
                           ^
compilation terminated.

I have installed libxml. Why am I getting this error?
