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.’

Has the Global Financial Crisis increased wealth inequality?

International Economics. 2022. Vol. 169. P. 148–160.
Shchepeleva M., Stolbov M., Weill L.

This paper examines the impact of the Global Financial Crisis (GFC) on wealth inequality. We investigate this question, using data for 143 countries for the period 2010–2018. We find no significant impact of the occurrence of the crisis on wealth inequality. We show limited evidence that the severity of the banking crisis affects the change in wealth inequality. Furthermore, the impact of the GFC on the change in wealth inequality is influenced by the country characteristics: the GFC has more enhanced wealth inequality in countries with higher levels of economic and financial development as well as lower initial levels of wealth inequality. We therefore contribute to a better understanding of the real effects of banking crises by providing evidence of the distributional effects of the GFC.

VOLATILITY FORECASTING FROM ECONOMETRICS TO ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE: A FOUR-STAGE REVIEW OF THE EVIDENCE PIPELINE FROM FORECAST ACCURACY TO PORTFOLIO PERFORMANCE
Lysenok N., International Journal of Computer Information Systems and Industrial Management Applications 2026 Vol. 18 No. 18s P. 1406–1430
A volatility forecast becomes useful only after it has passed through four stages: a model produces it, a trading rule consumes it, a portfolio aggregates the result, and an investor evaluates that result against a utility function. Each stage has its own mature evaluation apparatus, and each is studied in isolation. This review traces the ...

Gender, performance, and prize money: a study of pay discrimination against female teams in eSports
Parshakov P., Humanities and Social Sciences Communications 2026 Vol. 13 No. 1 P. 1–7
This study investigates gender‑based disparities in viewership and prize money within Counter‑Strike: Global Offensive competitions, using data from the ESL Impact League (female‑only) and comparable male leagues. Because esports performance depends chiefly on strategic choices and fine motor skills rather than physical strength, this setting offers a distinctive lens for examining gender equity where bodily ...

В основе принятия своевременных экономико-политических решений и бизнес-планирования лежит мониторинг текущей ситуации и прогнозирование путей развития экономической активности, базу которых составляют официальные статистические оценки значений различных показателей. В этой связи переоценка данных и прогнозы, основанные на более ранних либо поздних оценках, потенциально могут повлечь за собой совершенно различные экономико-политические решения. Согласно официальной методике Росстата, публикуется ...

Information Flow in Times of Crisis: The Case of the European Banking and Sovereign Sectors
Dungey M., Hurn S., Shi S. et al., Econometrics 2019 P. 1–20
Crises in the banking and sovereign debt sectors give rise to heightened financial fragility. Of particular concern is the development of self-fulfilling feedback loops where crisis conditions in one sector are transmitted to the other sector and back again. We use time-varying tests of Granger causality to demonstrate how empirical evidence of connectivity between the banking and sovereign sectors ...
