The library implements the minimax risk classifiers (MRCs) recently developed at BCAM
BCAM’s Machine Learning research line group have released the Python library MRCpy. Such library implements the Minimax Risk Classifiers (MRCs) that have been developed by the research line group at BCAM during the last several years. The project has been carried out by researchers at BCAM including PhD Student Kartheek Bondugula, Research Technician Claudia Guerrero, Posdoctoral Fellow Aritz Pérez and Prof. Santiago Mazuelas (BCAM Researcher – Ramón y Cajal 2018).
BCAM participates in the FIRST LEGO League project organised in the Basque Country by Innobasque. This year the researcher in charge of giving the talk is PhD student Imanol Gago, member of the Heuristic Optimization group.
This year the FLL Euskadi challenge that the participating teams have to face through an innovative solution focuses on logistics and the transport of goods and merchandise.
