Description

My research interests include artificial intelligence, machine learning, data mining, natural language processing, and network analytics. In machine learning and data mining I am interested in deep neural networks, feature evaluation, explanation of prediction models, ensemble learning, and embeddings (recent papersfree software). I am (co)author of more than 150 publications, both scientific and literary. My papers have more than 5000 citations according to Google Scholar.
I tweet as @MarkoRobnikS.
