Hello, I maintain C++ code for random sampling and volume approximation of polyhedra (see https://github.com/vissarion/volume_approximation).
I would like to propose a GSoC project to create an R package that will use functions of that code inside R. In particular, the package will provide functionality for MCMC geometric walks (variations of hit-and-run) and volume computation of polyhedra. It could also use existing MCMC walks from R. My motivation is the availability of the current software tool in a broader set of users (I have requests from researchers that want to use the code but have no knowledge of C++). I had a discussion in GSoC mentor summit last month with the GSoC admin of r-project and he proposed to send a message to this list to find a second mentor since my knowledge in R is limited. What do you think? Best regards, Vissarion Fisikopoulos _______________________________________________ Rcpp-devel mailing list Rcpp-devel@lists.r-forge.r-project.org https://lists.r-forge.r-project.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/rcpp-devel
