[GSoC 2018][uBLAS] Questions about the proposal guide on GitHub Wiki
by philectron 26 Mar '18

26 Mar '18

Hello, I'm doing my GSoC 2018 proposal for Boost.uBLAS project 1 https://github.com/boostorg/boost/wiki/Boost-Google-Summer-of-Code-2018#pro… The guide suggests implementing some fundamental components like... "many sorts of distributions like histograms, etc." Why do we need to implement those distributions when we've already had all the things we need in <boost/math/distributions>? Here is the documentation page of the <boost/math/distributions> library: http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_66_0/libs/math/doc/html/dist.html If I read the documentation and the proposal guide correctly, then we have basically had "many sorts of distributions like histograms, etc." already, haven't we? -- Sent from: http://boost.2283326.n4.nabble.com/Boost-Dev-f2600599.html

[gsoc18] Seeking mentor for Boost.uBLAS Statistics and Machine Learning
by Raul Alfonso Sanchez Cayo 26 Mar '18

26 Mar '18

Hi I'm Raul Sanchez Cayo, a student at The University of Guadalajara and I'm looking for a mentor. The Statistics and Machine Learning project on your ideas list got my attention. I just took the subject of Statistics last semester and I found it really interesting, especially when we got into different kinds of distributions and learned how to analyze them. Of course Statistics is not the only reason I want to work with this project. Since last year, I have been training to compete in the ACM-ICPC using C++. Although C++ is not the only programming language I work with, it is by far the first I have gotten to know deeply. I will be submitting a more detailed proposal at Google today, along with my programming competency test and a couple of libraries of my own. Thanks for your time, I look forward to hear from you.

25 Mar '18

Hi, What's the procedure of becoming a mentor? I couldn't find any info at our Wiki regarding this. Do I understand correctly that I should be able to go to gsoc page and agree to mentor a proposed project? I'm unable to log in. Do I need some sort of invitation? Adam

Hello, Just dropping a reminder regarding my proposal. I'd really appreciate any comments and suggestions for improvements anyone might have! I'm unsure of whether I've been specific enough while describing the interfaces to the proposed functionality, so if anyone feels I should flesh out my proposal a bit more, I'll gladly do so.

[gsoc18] Boost.uBLAS support for tensors: seeking a mentor
by Лясота Костя 25 Mar '18

25 Mar '18

Hello, My name is Konstantin. I would like to add tensor support to boost library. I am an aspirant (1st year) in computer science from Moscow Technological University, Russia (I believe aspirant corresponds to PhD Student in USA), and I have taken extra tensor algebra and differential geometry courses. My motivation, besides my affection towards topology and tensors, comes from the fact that I need C++ tensor library for use in my own project. Since I'm going to implement it, I would like to see it as a part of great open source project like Boost that anyone can use. Â I have completed a competency test: [1]http://coliru.stacked-crooked.com/a/5cf1908494c2da5d Due to some circumstances I had to do that in web ide, but I should be able to send it in separate .h and .cpp files directly via email if needed. Â I'm sorry I applied so late, but I found out about gsoc only yesterday. I should note that I'm willing to implement this even not as gsoc student, so contact me if you're interested.
