Perhaps, does she want to developed it out of GSoC? I think that it is a
very interesting topic.
If she know a bit of image processing, probably she know more about it that
most of us. But we can help her with the pywikipedia bot to retrieve
images/wikipages and submit the categorized image results to Wikimedia
Commons.

Hello,
My name is Emanuela Boros and I am a second year Software Engineering
master's student at the "Al. Ioan Cuza" University of Iasi, Romania and,
after I graduate, I plan to follow a phd program.
My research experience is focused mainly towards computer vision, image
processing, machine learning, multimodal information retrieval. It also
involves participating at international evaluation campaigns (ImageClef,
RobotVision) focusing on content-based image retrieval, image
classification and topological localization using visual information
I am interested in this project
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Summer_of_Code_2012#Image_recognition .
I've
noticed that there isn't a mentor mentioned
for this project and I would
like to know who should I contact for further clarifications regarding
this
project before I start writing my proposal.
Thank you and best regards,
Emanuela Boros
Emanuela, thank you for your interest in MediaWiki. Given the lack of
response to you (and to a few other students who are interested in this
idea), I'm sorry to say that I do not think there is a mentor available
for this idea.
We do have a lot of ideas that mentors are interested in guiding:
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Summer_of_Code_2012#Project_ideas so
perhaps you will find one of them interesting. I'm sorry for the trouble.
