Thanks for the advice Saikat. I'll try to get some hands on experience. I have gone through the mail thread " Contributing an algorithm for Samsara " and was wondering if there are any unit tests / any bug fixes pending to which I could contribute.
I will also go through the list of issues in Jira and see if I can contribute to any of them to understand the framework. I'll get back to you if I have any questions.
