Biologists Discover 'Molecular Fingerprint' of Preeclampsia
Researchers at HSE University employed a new method to model hypoxia in placental cells during pregnancies complicated by preeclampsia and identified molecular markers of tissue hypoxia. Since hypoxia is one of the key mechanisms underlying preeclampsia, these findings are important for a more accurate and timely diagnosis of the disease and for the development of effective treatment methods. The paper has been published in Placenta.

‘Speech, Facial Expressions, and Gestures Cannot Lie
Would you like to know whether a speaker’s trembling voice or an accidental gesture can give them away? At HSE University in Nizhny Novgorod, researchers are developing an algorithm that analyses speech, facial expressions, and gestures, and determines whether information is truthful with 92% accuracy. The project has applications ranging from forensic examination and bank recruitment to fundamental research. Anna Khomenko, head of the research group and Senior Research Fellow at the Centre for Language and Brain at the HSE Faculty of Humanities in Nizhny Novgorod, explains how students and researchers are working together to create a corpus of video recordings, train a classifier, and prepare to introduce computer vision technology.

Reconstruction of manifold embeddings into Euclidean spaces via intrinsic distances

ESAIM - Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations. 2024. Vol. 30. Article 3.
Nikita Puchkin, Vladimir Spokoiny, Eugene Stepanov, Trevisan D.

We consider the problem of reconstructing an embedding of a compact connected Riemannian manifold in a Euclidean space up to an almost isometry, given the information on intrinsic distances between points from its “sufficiently large” subset. This is one of the classical manifold learning problems. It happens that the most popular methods to deal with such a problem, with a long history in data science, namely, the classical Multidimensional scaling (MDS) and the Maximum variance unfolding (MVU), actually miss the point and may provide results very far from an isometry; moreover, they may even give no bi-Lipshitz embedding. We will provide an easy variational formulation of this problem, which leads to an algorithm always providing an almost isometric embedding with the distortion of original distances as small as desired (the parameter regulating the upper bound for the desired distortion is an input parameter of this algorithm).

Scalable machine learning approach to disordered s-wave superconductors
Неверов В. Д., Красавин А. В., Vagov A. et al., Physical Review B: Condensed Matter and Materials Physics 2026 Vol. 113 P. 1–6
We develop a neural network approach to solve the self-consistent Bogoliubov-de Gennes equations in strongly disordered s-wave superconductors. The method accurately reproduces inhomogeneous gap distributions and generalizes to system sizes far larger than those used in training. It reduces computational scaling from O(N6 ) to O(N2), enabling quantitative analysis of percolation phenomena and the superconductor-insulator ...

On the rate of Gaussian approximation for online linear regression problems
Sheshukova M., Durmus A., Khusainov M. et al., Statistics 2026 P. 1–25
In this paper, we consider the problem of Gaussian approximation for the online linear regression task. We derive the corresponding rates for the setting of a constant stepsize and study the explicit dependence of the convergence rate on the problem dimension d and quantities related to the design matrix. When the number of iterations n is known in advance, ...

Относительные аналитические законы взаимности

Изучаются законы взаимности, связанные с комплексными линейными расслоениями на расслоениях на ориентируемые окружности. В частности, доказывается следующий закон взаимности. Пусть B – комплексное многообразие и πi:Mi→B – расслоение на ориентируемые окружности, где индекс i пробегает конечное множество. Пусть Li и Ni – комплексные линейные расслоения на каждом многообразии Mi. Закон взаимности утверждает, что сумма всех элементов (πi)∗(c1(Li)∪c1(Ni)), где (πi)∗ – ...

A unified frequency-domain framework for tilted slice localization and ischemic stroke detection
Khodadoust J., Kulikova S., Khodadoust F., Biomedical Signal Processing and Control 2027 Vol. 129 P. 111284–111284
Acute ischemic stroke (AIS) analysis from two-dimensional (2D) clinical imaging is hindered by uncontrolled slice tilt and geometric inconsistencies that violate the assumptions of pose-agnostic deep learning (DL) models. This paper proposes a unified geometry-aware, frequency-domain framework for tilted slice localization and ischemic stroke segmentation that explicitly decouples pose estimation from lesion analysis. The method ...

Orbifold Saito theory of A and D type singularities
Basalaev A., Rarovskii A., Journal of Singularities 2026 Vol. 30 P. 61–80
Saito theory associates to an isolated singularity rich structure that plays an important role in mirror symmetry. In this note we construct Saito theory for A and D type Landau-Ginzburg orbifolds. Namely, for the pairs (f,G), where f defines an isolated singularity of A and D type and G is a group of symmetries of ...

Non-axiomatizability of modal predicate logics of Dedekind-complete linear orders with constant domains
Rybakov M., Shkatov D., Journal of Logic and Computation 2026 Vol. 36 No. 6 Article exag026
We prove Pi-1-1-hardness, and thus lack of recursive axiomatizability, of constant-domain modal predicate logics defined by a class of Dedekind complete linear Kripke frames containing a frame with an infinitely increasing chain of worlds. The result holds even for the language with one unary predicate letter, one propositional letter, and two individual variables. ...

Semi-Interlaced Polytopes
Селянин Ф. И., Moscow Mathematical Journal 2026 Vol. 26 No. 2 P. 167–187
Minkowski mixed volume of n subpolytopes D1,…,Dn of a polytope P⊂Rn clearly does not exceed the normalized volume n!Vol(P). Equality holds if and only if the subpolytopes are interlaced, i.e., each proper face F⊊P intersects at least dim(F)+1 of the polytopes Di. Efficiently computing mixed volumes for more general collections of subpolytopes is crucial for estimating the complexity of numerically solving polynomial systems. Motivated by relaxing the bound dim(F)+1 to dim(F), we ...

We prove a recent conjecture of the fourth named author with P. Norbury that states a system of universal polynomial relations among the kappa classes on the moduli spaces of algebraic curves. The proof involves localization and materialization analysis of the spin Gromov–Witten theory of the projective line and is dictated by Z 2 -equivariant ...

For a given metric measure space (X, d, μ) we consider finite samples of points, calculate the matrix of distances between them and then reconstruct the points in some finite-dimensional space using the multidimensional scaling (MDS) algorithm with this distance matrix as an input. We show that this procedure gives a natural limit as the number ...

Structure-adaptive Manifold Estimation
Puchkin N., Spokoiny V., Journal of Machine Learning Research 2022 Vol. 23 No. 40 P. 1–62
We consider a problem of manifold estimation from noisy observations. Many manifold learning procedures locally approximate a manifold by a weighted average over a small neighborhood. However, in the presence of large noise, the assigned weights become so corrupted that the averaged estimate shows very poor performance. We suggest a structure-adaptive procedure, which simultaneously reconstructs ...

User-controllable Multi-texture Synthesis with Generative Adversarial Networks

We propose a novel multi-texture synthesis model based on generative adversarial networks (GANs) with a user-controllable mechanism. The user control ability allows to explicitly specify the texture which should be generated by the model. This property follows from using an encoder part which learns a latent representation for each texture from the dataset. To ensure ...
