The invention relates to a method for selecting and ranking valid variants in search and recommendation systems. The claimed method makes it possible to select and rank variants with a high degree of accuracy and speed, especially in the case of a large number of variants which can be characterized by a large set of indicators. In the claimed method (variant), criteria for evaluating the relevance of a variant to the search request are first generated and a set of procedures for the selection and ranking of variants and a sequence for performing said procedures for the selection of variants evaluated as the most valid are established, and an evaluation of each of the variants is made on the basis of the relevance to search request criteria and, on the basis of this evaluation, the variants are ranked by means of assigning a rank to each of said variants based on the condition of correspondence to the greatest number of criteria in decreasing order, and then the variants are selected and ranked in at least two stages using the superposition method, and the variants are selected, ranked and excluded until all of the established selection procedures have been used and the selected group of variants is evaluated as being the most valid.

ML-based Fast Simulation of FARICH Responses

Shipilov F., Barnyakov A., Ivanov A. et al., / Series Physics "arxiv.org". 2026.

A fast simulation of the detector response is a vital task in high-energy physics (HEP). Traditional Monte-Carlo methods form the backbone of modern particle physics simulation software but are computationally expensive. We present a machine-learning-based approach to fast simulation of the Focusing Aerogel Ring Imaging Cherenkov (FARICH) detector response. Given a particle track and momentum, ...

On the minimum number of maximal distance-k independent sets in trees

Taletskii D., / Series arXiv "math". 2026.

A vertex subset of a graph is called a \textit{distance-$k$ independent set} if the distance between any two of its distinct vertices is at least $k + 1$. For all $n,k \geq 1$, we determine the minimum possible number of inclusion-wise maximal distance-$k$ independent sets among all $n$-vertex trees. It equals~$n$ if $n \leq k ...

Derkacheva A., Sakirkina M., Kraev G. et al., /. 2026.

Comprehensive data on natural hazards and their consequences are crucial for effective for risk assessment, adaptation planning, and emergency response. However, many countries face challenges with fragmented, inconsistent, and inaccessible data, particularly regarding local-scale events. To address this data gap in Russia, we developed an end-to-end processing pipeline that scrapes news from various online sources, ...

On weak solutions to the 1d compressible Navier-Stokes equations: a Lipschitz continuous dependence on data in weaker norms and an error of their homogenization

Zlotnik Alexander, / Series arXiv "math". 2026. No. 2602.03481v1.

We deal with the global in time weak solutions to the 1D compressible Navier-Stokes system of equations for large discontinuous initial data and nonhomogeneous boundary conditions of three standard types. We prove the Lipschitz-type continuous dependence of the solution $(\eta,u,\theta)$, in a norm slightly stronger than $L^{2,\infty}(Q)\times L^2(Q)\times L^2(Q)$, on the initial data $(\eta^0,u^0,e^0)$ in a ...

Covariate-Balanced Weighted Stacked Difference-in-Differences

Ustyuzhanin V., / Series Econometrics "arxiv". 2026.

This paper proposes Covariate-Balanced Weighted Stacked Difference-in-Differences (CBWSDID), a design-based extension of weighted stacked DID for settings in which untreated trends may be conditionally rather than unconditionally parallel. The estimator separates within-subexperiment design adjustment from across-subexperiment aggregation: matching or weighting improves treated-control comparability within each stacked subexperiment, while the corrective stacked weights of Wing et ...

We investigate the interplay between the dimension of the space of static potentials and the geometric and topological structure of the underlying static three-manifold. A partial classification of boundaryless static manifolds is obtained in terms of this dimension. We also treat the case of static manifolds with boundary. In particular, we prove that if a ...

Using predefined vector systems to speed up neural network multimillion class classification

Gabdullin N., Androsov I., / Series Computer Science "arxiv.org". 2026.

Label prediction in neural networks (NNs) has O(n) complexity proportional to the number of classes. This holds true for classification using fully connected layers and cosine similarity with some set of class prototypes. In this paper we show that if NN latent space (LS) geometry is known and possesses specific properties, label prediction complexity can ...

We also discuss links to the ...
