student would like to implement some algorithm as cc plugin

[den.orlov]

I am a second year student studying linear algebra and computer geometry. I know Python well, but I can't say I am very good at CPP. We have a semester course on implementing any software project. I would like to take a real case from the CC todo list and implement it. Can you recommend topics that I could consider? So that I can do a term project, and make a useful contribution to CC, and get acquainted with some point cloud processing algorithm. Preferably, something that can be implemented as a CC Python Runtime plugin.
