Hi Sushmita,
Have you taken a look at these pages?
http://www.mlpack.org/involved.html
https://github.com/mlpack/mlpack/wiki/SummerOfCodeIdeas
https://github.com/mlpack/mlpack/wiki/Google-Summer-of-Code-Application-Guide
http://write.flossmanuals.net/gsocstudentguide/what-is-google-summer-of-code/
Between that and reading the relevant literature for the methods you are
interested in, you should be able to prepare a good proposal.
Be sure to focus on the API of the algorithms you want to work on in
your proposal, so that they match the API of the rest of mlpack. Maybe
this document would also be helpful:

Thanks,
Ryan
