[GSoC2016] Insterested in Usage Statistics Analysis Project

[Ayush Mishra]

Hello Everyone,

I am Ayush Mishra, third year computer science student at IIIT Hyderabad. I am specifically interested in the project of analyzing usage statistics.

I am quite inclined towards data mining, I have done many projects that involved data mining techniques. I am also a research student and my current research topic is to cluster commits for better detection of logical coupling. I am proficient with most data mining algorithms, have implemented myself and used many of them (python libraries scikit, and mlpack in c++) for academic and research purposes. Apart from academics and research, I use such techniques where ever I find them applicable, for instance I had made a grouping plugin which would cluster similar posts in your news feed [facebook] as a topic. As sometimes, we have repetitive posts in our news feeds, like result of football matches, some popular video shared by a lot of people etc. 

I had also used D3.js [ A JavaScript visualization library for HTML and SVG ] in a project I created for visualizing friends graph at Facebook till level 2 [ Used Facebook's Graph API ]. The experience with D3.js should be useful for visualizing and displaying data.

I was interviewed for Software Engineering Intern position at Google for Summer 2016, cleared both the initial technical interviews ( one of them involved data mining ), but sadly they couldn't find a project for me this year (they will directly find a project for me next year, no technical interviews). My plans for this summer were shattered with the closing of project matching for this year, but I was introduced to Google Summer of Code by my recruiting contact at Google.

I hope my experience should be enough for the project.

Just posted this to introduce myself to the community and to mark my interest towards the project.

From a previous thread, I understood what the project is about, so I won't ask those questions again.

Currently, I am reading some research papers for better representation of data and on my proposal.

I will be adding my proposal here for review tomorrow!

Cheers!

Hello,

Thanks for contacting us!

I've added the potential project mentors to Cc.
They may help you to define the proposal scope and the areas to consider.
There are also Jenkins Office Hours for students and mentors.

Best regards,
