Looking for undocumented earthquake effects: a probabilistic analysis of Italian macroseismic data [PDF]
A methodology to detect local incompleteness of macroseismic intensity data at the local scale is presented. In particular, the probability that undocumented effects actually occurred at a site is determined by considering intensity prediction equations (

USGS “Did You Feel It?” Internet-based macroseismic intensity maps
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) “Did You Feel It?” (DYFI) system is an automated approach for rapidly collecting macroseismic intensity data from Internet users’ shaking and damage reports and generating intensity maps immediately following earthquakes;

Probabilistic seismic hazard analysis in low-seismicity regions : An investigation of sensitivity with a focus on Finland [PDF]
Online supplementary informationWe investigate probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (PSHA) in low-seismicity regions in which epistemic uncertainties are largely due to the sparsity of data, with a focus on Finland, northern Europe.

Intensity-based sentiment and topic analysis. The case of the 2020 Aegean Earthquake [PDF]
After an earthquake, it is necessary to understand its impact to provide relief and plan recovery. Social media (SM) and crowdsourcing platforms have recently become valuable tools for quickly collecting large amounts of first-hand data after a disaster.
