I might suggest that you narrow your focus because each of these projects has a
significant amount of background knowledge that is necessary.
To learn more about each of the projects than what has been listed on the Ideas
page, take a look at the mailing list archives:

Don't worry, contributing is not a requirement for an application. So if you
don't find anything that you think you can do, that's not necessarily a problem.
However, I'll see if I can add some more "easy" issues in the next couple of
days. On the other side, you are always welcome to just poke around the library
and try to fix any problems you find, or improve the speed of various parts.
Thanks,
Marcus

I even have my own neural networks library <https://github.com/aaiijmrtt/NET>, which I wrote from scratch while trying to understand existing theories. I am very eager to contribute to mlpack for GSoC 2016, as almost all the projects excite me equally.

I am certain that I can take up the tasks. However, others are already working on the warmup tasks listed alongside the projects. Are there any other tasks that I could try? I have a lot of experience with research work, and am a skilled coder.
