Hey guys, I am Abhiram a sophomore at NITT, My primary domain is devOps, other than that I mainly work in backend, cybersecurity, and Blockchain. I really like the philosophy behind open source and decentralization but due to prior commitments I was not able to work on them during my first year but now I have been active in the open source community for the past 7 to 8 months, other than that right now I am actively working with my club to improve my collage tech infrastructure and building a project for a startup that's being incubated by NTU Singapore. I look forward to contributing to the University of Alaska Anchorage Open Source Project and would love to get in touch with Project Mentors and fellow contributors. |

Hi everyone! I'm Jasmine Thompson, a Python programmer who recently completed a Masters in Mathematics at the University of Exeter. I came across GSoC from a friend's recommendation and became interested in the idea [2] Support for Logarithmic Number Systems in a Deep-Learning Framework due to it having crossover with my linear algebra knowledge and similarity to my dissertation project where I had to implement and compare Gaussian Processes and Bayesian Neural Networks and compare their ability to capture uncertainty. I have a background in data analysis, data visualisation, Python programming and machine learning. Looking forward to getting involved and collaborating! |

Hello, I am writing to express my interest in contributing to the project Adopting Nunaliit for Alaska Native Healthcare Practices for GSoC. After reviewing the project’s objectives and its potential impact on improving healthcare access in Alaska, I would be excited to participate and bring my skills in Python, JavaScript, and Java to the table. I am particularly interested in helping to implement the necessary features for the Nunaliit map-based interface and automating data management and installation processes. I believe my experience in software development and my passion for projects that make a social impact would make me a valuable contributor. I look forward to discussing how I can contribute to the success of this project and am open to any feedback or suggestions. Thank you for your consideration. Best regards, |

Hello everyone! My name is Marc Nahas, and I’m a student developer passionate about the intersection of technology, neuroscience, and public health. I’m excited to contribute to the open-source community through Google Summer of Code 2025 and was immediately drawn to the mission and work of this organization. During my time working with the Bain Exercise Initiative, a club I run, I developed the concept for an app called Cognix, focused on supporting individuals impacted by Alzheimer's disease. Through that experience, I realized how powerful code can be in transforming an idea into a meaningful, real-world tool. That realization led me to GSoC. The vision is to build a customizable, research-aligned, open-source platform that supports users, families, and caregivers in navigating cognitive decline — with potential extensions into clinical research and digital therapeutics. I’m particularly interested in exploring how this project might fit within the broader goals of Alaska in terms of neuroscience, especially around digital health, cognitive assessment, or open data integration. I’d love to collaborate with mentors and contributors to either integrate Cognix with an existing tool or contribute modules that align with ongoing research. Please let me know if you think this idea fits within the scope of GSoC here. I’d love to connect, learn from the community, and shape Cognix into something that can make a real difference through open collaboration. Looking forward to working with you all! Warmly! |

Hi! I'm Archanaa, a final-year B.Tech student specializing in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning. This is my first time applying to GSoC, and I’m really excited about it! I’ve always been curious about how technology can be used to solve real-life problems, especially something as serious as natural disasters. That’s why the project "Alaska Wildfire Prediction Using Satellite Imagery" instantly caught my attention. I’ve done projects on deep learning, NLP, and computer vision, and I love exploring how AI can make a real-world impact. Even though I know there’s still a lot to learn, I’m passionate, hardworking, and eager to grow through this experience. Big shoutout to my mentors-to-be: Yali Wang and Arghya Kusum Das—I look forward to learning from you and contributing to this meaningful project! |

Project Repository: AK-Satellite-Imagery-Wildfire-Prediction Hello mentors and contributors 👋, I'm Mrityunjay Kukreti, and I’m excited to share my GSoC 2025 proposal: “Alaska Wildfire Prediction Using Satellite Imagery.” This project aims to improve early wildfire detection by integrating multi-modal data—optical (Sentinel-2), SAR (Sentinel-1), thermal (MODIS/VIIRS), and weather data (ERA5/NOAA)—into a hybrid CNN-LSTM model. The goal is to classify regions into risk categories (High, Moderate, None) and visualize predictions via a web-based GIS dashboard for broader accessibility and practical use. Highlights of My Approach: 📌 Why This Project? I would really appreciate your feedback on: The proposed model architecture (CNN-LSTM hybrid) Integration of SAR and weather data GIS dashboard and visualization tools Any existing baseline or evaluation datasets you recommend Looking forward to your suggestions and excited about the opportunity to work together on this project. Thank you for your time and consideration! Warm regards, |

Aha, I misunderstood. If you have already submitted your proposal to the GSoC Portal during the application period, you are all set. You will hear from Google on May 8th. |

Can we still contribute if we have submitted our proposal as I have given proposal for diomede but do not contributed by making pull requests or suggesting issues(as it mentioned that this project does not require pull request to be the only way for getting selected). |
