Mentee:
Satvik Mishra
A 3rd year undergrad immensely interested in data science.

Mentor(s):
@fkiraly

Why did you join sktime's mentorship program?
I have explored many fields of AI (as can be seen from my GitHub and Kaggle profiles) and now that I am satisfied with where I stand I thought of contributing to open source. Given I have not contributed a lot to open source and time-series is an area I am not very experienced with, I thought joining the program to slowly guide me through the entire process was a good idea.

What topics are you working on?
Currently, I have 3 open PR's:

• Extending parameter estimator base class with y in fit
• Incorrect docstring and tests for segments_to_change_points
• Test case to ensure an AssertionError is thrown if EXCLUDED_TESTS_BY_TEST is not updated

What are your learning goals?
Will update after the week 1 meeting.

What's next for you after the mentorship program?
Kind of clueless right now but I hope to figure it out by the end of the program!
