Researchers Develop Methodology to Assess the Quality of Legal Representation in Criminal Proceedings
Having a good defence attorney in criminal proceedings can largely determine whether a defendant retains their freedom, health and good name. Researchers at HSE University propose a method for predicting an attorney’s performance based on the outcomes of their previous cases. The methodology takes into account the severity of the charges, the complexity of the cases, and the most likely outcome, drawing on judicial statistics.

When Pictures Hinder Understanding: Illustrations May Impede Learning of Abstract Ideas
Illustrations can help remember specific actions but do not always make abstract ideas easier to learn. Researchers from HSE University and Humboldt University compared how people learn from texts with different levels of abstractness. They found that participants remembered illustrations better and performed better on related tasks after reading a multimedia text about yoga asanas than after reading an abstract text about the Nash equilibrium. The findings could help improve the selection of illustrations for educational and informational materials. The study has been published in Learning and Instruction.

On the improvements of successive cancellation Creeper decoding for polar codes

Digital Signal Processing. 2023. Vol. 137. Article 104008.
Timokhin I., Ivanov F.

In this paper, an improvement for successive cancellation (SC) decoding is presented for polar codes. This improvement is based on applying Creeper approach that was used to decode convolutional codes. The proposed decoder combines a stack and a Fano approaches, allowing to significantly decrease complexity of Successive Cancellation Fano decoder at the cost of a slight increase in space complexity. We also show how to combine the SC-Creeper decoding with a bit-flipping approach to further improve the performance of SC-Creeper due to introducing additional decoding attempts.

Simulation results show that the proposed SC-Creeper and SC-Creeper Flip decoders with carefully selected parameters have the same performance as both CRC-aided Successive Cancellation List decoder with list size 8 and Fano decoder, while having much smaller complexity.

Interpretable Lazy Classification with Interval Pattern Structures and Local Interval Explanations
Tomat A., Sergei O. Kuznetsov, International Journal of Approximate Reasoning 2026 Vol. 197 Article 109754

Error correction during data storage, processing, and transmission allows for ensuring data integrity. Channel coding techniques are used to counteract these errors. Noise in real systems is often correlated, whereas traditional coding and decoding approaches are based on decorrelation which in turn reduces the performance limits of channel coding. Polar codes, adopted as a coding scheme in the ...

Satellite and space communication systems have received a lot of attention as crucial transmission frameworks in recent years. In these systems, the signal is mostly degraded by fast amplitude and phase changes (fading), which cause error bursts. Hence, robust error-correcting codes that can handle error bursts are necessary for space and satellite transmissions of good ...
