Pareto-optimal trees and Pareto forest: a bi-objective optimization model for binary classification

As inherently transparent models, classification trees play a central role in interpretable machine learning by providing easily traceable decision paths that allow users to understand how input features contribute to specific predictions. In this work, we introduce a new class of interpretable binary classification models, named Pareto-optimal trees, which aim at combining the complementary strengths … Read more

Rank aggregation in cyclic sequences

In this paper we propose the problem of finding the cyclic sequence which best represents a set of cyclic sequences. Given a set of elements and a precedence cost matrix we look for the cyclic sequence of the elements which is at minimum distance from all the ranks when the permutation metric distance is the … Read more
