CALL FOR PAPERS for the Ninth International Conference on Sensitivity Analysis of Model Output

Barcelona, October Monday 28 - Wednesday 30, 2019

"Are the results from a particular model more sensitive to changes in the model and the methods used to estimate its parameters, or to changes in the data?"

This remark by Giandomenico Majone goes the heart of the problem setting of sensitivity analysis, a tool which all modellers from all fields of application use to improve the quality of their inference.  Sensitivity Analysis is crucial both in the model construction and model interpretation phases, and is considered an important ingredient of model verification and validation.

SAMO conferences are devoted to advances in research on sensitivity analysis methods and their interdisciplinary applications, they are held every third year. The aim of the SAMO conference in Barcelona is to bring together researchers involved in the development and improvement of methods and strategies and users of sensitivity analysis in all disciplines of science, including physics, operations research, chemistry, biology, nanotechnology, engineering, environmental science, nuclear and industrial safety, economics and finance, and many others.

Special issues: After the conference two special issues will be prepared, one on Reliability Engineering and System Safety, edited by Bertrand Iooss and Bruno Sudret,  and one on another journal to be selected.
