Hello respected Mentors and Contributors,

My name is Meet Patel. I am pursuing my Master’s in Computer Science, Have major experience in Machine Learning and its sub-task like Data preprocessing since I was in my its bachelors. Especially in the medical field, I have a major interest in problem solving. To exemplify that, I have created many models to predict some diseases and some of them work for checking the intensity of some diseases also.

I would like to do work again in the medical field!

Thank you,
Meet Patel

Hi, I am Aryan Prakhar, an undergrad at IIT BHU. I am currently interning at OpenLocus and building a data-driven discovery system to aid scientific knowledge generation using multi-agent systems in collaboration with Allen AI team. We had an ICML’24 submission for the same. Now I am working for COLM submission expanding the scope of the system to new fields. Further, I am pursuing a research project with professor at Leiden Institute of Advanced Computer Science on temporal analysis of tracker dynamics. I have always been interested in the biological/biochemical applications of Machine Learning and to improve my understanding, I have taken course on Biochemistry in my college.

I have cleared the KVPY, Indian Olympiad Qualifier in Biology, etc, demonstrating my love for subject of biology. I have also built a classification-segmentation pipeline for brain tumour segmentation using ResUnet architecture. I am especially curious about the projects “Improve Equivariance Support” and “Torch compile and PyTorch 2.2.0”.

My interest in equivariance stems from its potential to revolutionize the way we approach computational chemistry, enabling models to generalize better across different molecular structures and environments. I also have experience with benchmarking through my internship. Working on any of these projects during summers at Deepchem would be a great learning and research experience.

Looking forward to discuss how I could start contributing to these project, start my journey and Deepchem and quench my passion for biochemical applications of AI.

Hello everyone! I am Anton, a recent Physics, Astrophysics and Cosmology graduate from Lancaster University. My journey in AI began with applying two Capsule ANNs to classify galaxies by morphology as my Master’s project. Since then, I have been implementing various machine learning algorithms and deep learning models in PyTorch and applying them to real-world datasets in Kaggle competitions and personal projects.

I would love to “Implement a Wishlist Model” by adding one of the ODEs models (Neural, Convolutional Neural or Universal) to DeepChem’s arsenal. Having already encountered the concept of equivariance in the context of CNNs and Capsule networks, I am also interested in helping with the “Improve Equivariance Support” project. Any guidance on how to start contributing to either would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks!

Hi everybody! My name’s Seungil cha, a senior student in SungKyunKwan Univ, in South Korea majoring in CS.

I am a second-year ML & SW engineer with a career that includes a 1-year full-time job at a startup company.

I have mainly worked on projects related to Localization, and I have experience in the entire process, from task setting and modeling to lightweighting, to apply it to actual services, so I can approach projects from various perspectives.

Additionally, I have worked on building an in-house Model training & export pipeline project.

After completing a year of full-time employment, I was selected to work on ML projects for major South Korean corporations such as Samsung, SK Telecom, Hyundai Motors, and POSCO International.

I believe that if I am selected for GSoC, I can successfully complete the project and am the most suitable person for it.
