The research activity initially focused (and partially still does today) on the studyof pseudo-likelihoods, particularly empirical likelihood and quasi-likelihood, with interestin methodological and theoretical aspects, applications to inferential problems in non-parametric settings, also characterized by incomplete data, and applications to robustinference problems.In recent years, research activity has also focused on studying statistical techniquesfor evaluating diagnostic tests. In particular, some inferential problems related to ROCanalysis have been addressed, concerning Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) cur-ves and surfaces, and derived indicators, even in a context of incomplete information(verification bias), clustered data or the presence of covariates.
