Interesting problem. I didn't even realize that this was needed. Do
you have links to said algorithms? Also do you think this would be an
appropriate task for 12 weeks of work? Seems a bit too "easy" maybe.
(same goes for some of my own proposals. Maybe some could be
combined.) Lastly, would you mentor such a project?
