L’intervisibilità. Analisi del paesaggio nella chora della colonia greca di Himera
2016
This study focuses on the analysis of the landscape in the territory of the colony of Himera. In particular, this work is inspired by a detailed examination conducted on the basis of parametric modelling, which has helped us to understand what factors (pedology, altimetry, geology, supply basins, etc.) had an effect in the settlement choices of the Imerese territory during the Colonial Age. We analysed the role intervisibility had between sites in the organisation of the landscape. By avoiding a deterministic logic, we intersected the data from previous surveys on the development of predictive models with the archaeological data, formulating hypotheses on the role that the main settlements …

Uncertainty in environmental and hydrological mathematical modelling
2012
Engineers are increasingly called to deal with practical problems related to water resources management, risk analysis, environmental engineering and water pollution. Providing a way forward to solve the above questions requires setting up mathematical models that are affected by uncertainty, that in many cases is relevant. In fact, the theories that are employed for providing solutions to engineer’s problems are not exact sciences: even if it is methodologically rigorous, it is incapable of producing precise results, for the presence of inherent randomness that translates in indeterminacy and therefore uncertainty. To cope with uncertainty is a challenge for scientists and practitioners, t…
REVITALISATION AS A CONTEMPORARY PROCESS OF MODELLING URBANISING AREAS
2019
Współcześnie rewitalizacja jest traktowana jako proces podejmowany w przestrzeni o różnym charakterze, którego celem jest likwidacja barier uniemożliwiających lub spowalniających jej szeroko pojętą aktywizację gospodarczą. Ukierunkowana jest ona na kompleksowe rozwiązanie problemów. Rewitalizacja jest jednym z ważniejszych zadań w polityce lokalnej, które postrzegane jest jako modelowanie obszarów (w tym urbanizujących się). W różnych regionach Europy proces ten zachodzi już od ponad trzech dekad, natomiast w Polsce znacznie krócej. W kraju przyspieszony on został m.in. dzięki możliwościom współfinansowania działań w tym zakresie, jakie stwarza większa dostępność do funduszy unijnych dedyko…
Complementary frailty and mortality prediction models on older patients as a tool for assessing palliative care needs.
2021
Background: Palliative care (PC) has demonstrated benefits for life-limiting illnesses. Cancer patients have mainly accessed these services, but there is growing consensus about the importance of promoting access for patients with non-malignant disease. Bad survival prognosis and patient9s frailty are usual dimensions to decide PC inclusion. Objectives: The main aim of this work is to design and evaluate three quantitative models based on machine learning approaches to predict frailty and mortality on older patients in the context of supporting palliative care decision making: one-year mortality, survival regression and one-year frailty classification. Methods: The dataset used in this stud…
Porta Nuova a Palermo (XVI secolo). La vicenda, i protagonisti , i modelli, in Entrare in città: di archi e di porte, numero monografico della rivist…
2015
La Porta Nuova a Palermo, realizzata nel corso della seconda metà del Cinquecento, costituisce un episodio singolare per le molteplici valenze funzionali, simboliche e celebrative e per il carattere eccezionale della sua figurazione legata alla retorica trionfalistica di Carlo V. I differenti cantieri che si sono susseguiti delineano una vicenda complessa e originale, strettamente connessa con quelle della via Toledo e del Palazzo Reale (al quale la porta è collegata), e ricca di personalità e apporti esterni. Il ruolo dell’ingegnere regio Antonio Salamone coinvolto in tale vicenda e le analogie con talune soluzioni adottate in altre realizzazioni del tempo possono contribuire a ridefinire …
Giustizia riparativa e sistema penale. Considerazioni a partire dalla «legge Cartabia»
2022
La “legge Cartabia” delega il Governo italiano a introdurre una «disciplina organica della giustizia riparativa». Dopo aver ripercorso nozione, modelli, meccanismi applicativi della giustizia riparativa, e ragioni del suo progressivo affermarsi, l’Autore si sofferma su alcuni aspetti problematici nei rapporti fra giustizia riparativa e sistema penale, nonché sui possibili scenari che possono immaginarsi in sede di esercizio della delega. The latest reform introduced by minister Cartabia opens the door to the introduction for a "complete discipline of restorative justice". After reviewing notion, models, application mechanisms, reasons for a progressive implementation of restorative justice,…
Estimation of leaf area index using PROSAIL based LUT inversion, MLRA-GPR and empirical models: Case study of tropical deciduous forest plantation, N…
2020
Abstract Forests play a vital role in biological cycles and environmental regulation. To understand the key processes of forest canopies (e.g., photosynthesis, respiration and transpiration), reliable and accurate information on spatial variability of Leaf Area Index (LAI), and its seasonal dynamics is essential. In the present study, we assessed the performance of biophysical parameter (LAI) retrieval methods viz. Look-Up Table (LUT)-inversion, MLRA-GPR (Machine Learning Regression Algorithm- Gaussian Processes Regression) and empirical models, for estimating the LAI of tropical deciduous plantation using ARTMO (Automated Radiative Transfer Models Operator) tool and Sentinel-2 satellite im…
Macrosystem community change in lake phytoplankton and its implications for diversity and function
2023
Aim We use lake phytoplankton community data to quantify the spatio-temporal and scale-dependent impacts of eutrophication, land-use and climate change on species niches and community assembly processes while accounting for species traits and phylogenetic constraints. Location Finland. Time period 1977–2017. Major taxa Phytoplankton. Methods We use hierarchical modelling of species communities (HMSC) to model metacommunity trajectories at 853 lakes over four decades of environmental change, including a hierarchical spatial structure to account for scale-dependent processes. Using a “region of common profile” approach, we evaluate compositional changes of species communities and trait profil…
