El potencial de Claude Code y las terminales
One-hour hands-on seminar (delivered in Spanish) on Claude Code as an agentic AI for university teaching and research: building reproducible artifacts, literature synthesis, three adversarial referees on a manuscript, end-to-end paper pipelines, MCP integrations (Slack, Gmail), and a local-sovereignty closing with Florentino (CI2LAB, Comillas ICAI). Includes a downloadable demo pack.
ESG-Constrained Bayesian Optimization of Deep Reinforcement Learning Portfolio Agents
Contributed talk at the 2026 RCEA International Conference in Economics, Econometrics, and Finance, Universidad Pontificia Comillas, Madrid. We introduce ECCA, a soft–hard constraint framework for Bayesian optimization that steers DRL portfolio agents toward ESG-feasible configurations without sacrificing risk-adjusted returns.
Precision-Weighted Joint Entropy Search for Bayesian Optimization
Invited seminar at the Instituto de Investigación Tecnológica (IIT), Universidad Pontificia Comillas — ICAI. A new information-theoretic acquisition function for Bayesian optimization that weights the joint entropy of the optimum location and its value by the precision of the posterior predictive distribution.
