Multi-risk assessment: a sensitivity test for a local-scale semi-quantitative methodology
Chemical Engineering Transactions, 2019 A semi-quantitative methodology at a local scale is presented, aimed at increasing the efficacy of Land Use Planning related to the Management of risks, in particular for multiple risks impinging on the same territory (Multi-risks).

Local sensitivity approximations for selectivity bias
, 2001 Observational data analysis is often based on tacit assumptions of ignorability or randomness. The paper develops a general approach to local sensitivity analysis for selectivity bias, which aims to study the sensitivity of inference to small departures ...

A Semiparametric Approach for Analyzing Nonignorable Missing Data [PDF]
In missing data analysis, there is often a need to assess the sensitivity of key inferences to departures from untestable assumptions regarding the missing data process.

Sensitivity Mapping of Closed-Loop Root Contours from Robust Admissibility to Local Fragility
TechnologiesRobust admissibility guarantees that the closed-loop poles remain within a prescribed region, but it does not reveal the locally sensitive portions of the root contours.
