Scientists Develop Algorithm for More Reliable Processors in Data Centres
Researchers from HSE MIEM and Samara University have developed the LRF-3D algorithm to automatically bypass idle nodes in three-dimensional networks-on-chip. Thanks to its hierarchical architecture, the algorithm outperforms existing solutions in both speed and path accuracy, improving processor reliability for use in data centres, supercomputers, and AI computing. The source code and test results are publicly available.

Researchers Develop Method for Direct Generation of Regulatory DNA
Researchers at HSE University have developed a model for generating promoters and enhancers—DNA sequences that regulate gene activity. The model works directly with DNA nucleotides, without first transforming them into a continuous numerical representation. This solution could be useful for applications in synthetic biology and gene therapy. The study results were presented at the ICLR 2026 Workshop ‘Generative AI in Genomics (Gen^2): Barriers and Frontiers.’

Social Integration: At the Crossroads of Knowledge and Values
The International Laboratory for Social Integration Research (ILSIR) at HSE University studies the challenges faced by vulnerable groups and explores ways to help them participate fully in everyday life. To develop effective solutions, the laboratory’s researchers combine cutting-edge methods with practical fieldwork. In this interview with the HSE News Service, Laboratory Head Elena Iarskaia-Smirnova discusses the laboratory’s work.

Dynamic Consistency and Rectangularity for the Smooth Ambiguity Model

Journal of Economic Theory . 2025. Vol. 225. Article 105991.
Savochkin A., Shklyaev A., Galatenko A. V.

We study the Smooth Ambiguity decision criterion in the dynamic setting to understand when it can satisfy the Dynamic Consistency and Consequentialism properties. These properties allow one to rewrite the decision criterion recursively and solve for optimal decisions by Dynamic Programming. Our result characterizes the possibility of having these properties through a condition that resembles Epstein and Schneider's (2003) rectangularity condition for the maxmin model. At the same time, we show that Dynamic Consistency and Consequentialism can be achieved for Smooth Ambiguity preferences in a narrower set of scenarios than one would hope for.

INTRODUCTION. If the legal recognition of human rights depends on belonging to “all members of the human family”, then the existence of the scope of application of human rights ratione loci is logically contradictory. Either there should be no territorial restrictions on the application of human rights, or the provisions of the Universal Declaration of ...

Commentary: Rectangularity is stronger than symmetry in interpreting 2D pictures as 3D objects
Sawada T., Dvoeglazova M., Frontiers in Human Neuroscience 2023 Vol. 17 Article 1138287
In this note, we are commenting on a paper by Sugihara and Pinna (2022, referred to as SP22 in this note) published in Frontiers in Human Neuroscience. SP22 discussed the role of rectangularity in the perception of 3D shapes based on the results of two behavioral experiments and on their observations of some visual illusions ...

Дистрибутивные теории справедливости: от утилитаризма и обратно
Balashov D., Антиномии 2021 Т. 21 № 3 С. 7–29
For half a century, the problem of justice has been one of the most controversial and debated in Western academic science. For the Anglo-American tradition, the starting point for controversy about distributive justice can be considered 1971, when the philosopher John Rawls published work The Theory of Justice. This book made a revolution, on the one hand, provoking a ...

Testing dynamic consistency and consequentialism under ambiguity
Bleichrodt H., Eichberger J. T., Grant S. et al., European Economic Review 2021 Vol. 134 Article 103687
Accounting for ambiguity aversion in dynamic decisions generally implies that either dy- namic consistency or consequentialism must be given up. To gain insight into which of these principles better describes people’s preferences, we tested them using a variation of Ellsberg’s three-color urn experiment. Subjects were asked to make a choice both before and after they ...

The second part of the article is devoted to the analysis of two epistemological problems that are directly related to the balancing of values in judicial practice – the nature of human rights and the relationship between law and non-legal normativity. According to the authors, the dispute between Habermas and Alexy over what is the ...

Optimal portfolio under ambiguous ambiguity
Makarov D., Finance Research Letters 2021 No. 43 Article 101961
A prominent approach to modelling ambiguity about stock return distribution is to assume that investors have multiple priors about the distribution and these priors are distributed according to a certain second-order distribution. Realistically, investors may also have multiple priors about the second-order distribution, thus allowing for ambiguous ambiguity. Despite a long history of debates about this idea ...

Действие, норма и ценность в практической аргументации

Argumentation in law and morals often, if not always, concerns human actions and conduct, for which rational agents’ reasoning aim to justify a line of behavior by promoting some value, observing relevant norms or weighing alternative ways of how to achieve a certain goal. Such argumentation is called practical and it contrasts theoretical argumentation, over ...

Ambiguity Attitudes and Self-Confirming Equilibrium in Sequential Games
Battigalli P., Catonini E., Lanzani G. et al., Games and Economic Behavior 2019 Vol. 115 P. 1–29
We consider a game in extensive form recurrently played by agents who are randomly drawn from large populations and matched. We assume that preferences over actions at any information set admit a smooth-ambiguity representation in the sense of Klibanoff, Marinacci, and Mukerji (Econometrica, 2005), which may induce dynamic inconsistencies. We take this into account in ...

Libero Arbitrio e Retributivà
Bronzo S., Rivista di Filosofia 2006 Vol. XCVII No. 1 P. 59–81
The paper is organized in three parts. In the first part, the author specifies a certain notion of free will—free will as "ultimate self-determination"—and argues that it is a conceptual illusion. In the second part, he argues, against P.F. Strawson, that the recognition of the illusory character of that notion of free will is not ...
