Voting with Random Classifiers (VORACE) [PDF]
International Joint Conference on Autonomous Agents and Multiagent Systems, 2020 We propose an innovative ensemble technique that uses voting rules over a set of randomly-generated classifiers. Given a new input sample, we interpret the output of each classifier as a ranking over the set of possible classes. We then aggregate these output rankings using a voting rule, which treats them as preferences over the classes.

Fitness of two phenotypes of Harmonia axyridis (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae)
European Journal of Entomology, 2001 The coccinellid H. axyridis shows considerable intraspecific variability of elytral patterns. In this paper, we suggest that a genotype that confers a specific pattern of elytra could also confer other specific autecological attributes.

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2010 In the absence of a successful international cooperative agreement over the control of emissions there is a growing interest in the role that clean technologies may play to alleviate the climate change problem. Within a non-cooperative transboundary pollution game, we investigate, analytically and within a numerical example based on empirical evidence,
