About Me

I am a research associate at Department of Knowledge Technologies at the Jožef Stefan Institute. My interests are related to artificial intelligence, machine learning and their application to practical problems including ambient assisted living and environmental and life sciences. My work includes methods for combining multiple classifiers, learning rule-based models for predicting structured variables and network reconstruction.
