'Physics Is What the World Is Literally Built On'

Physicist Nina Dzhanayeva, recipient of a Vladimir Potanin Foundation scholarship, focuses her research on nanophotonics. In this interview for the HSE Young Scientists project, she discusses nanowells, scientific intuition, and how physics can help in making frangipane cream puffs.

Scientists Create Open Dataset for Studying Concentration

A team of Russian researchers, including scientists from HSE University–St Petersburg, has developed the first open multimodal dataset containing recordings of brain activity, heart function, and video observations to help researchers understand what happens in the human brain during deep concentration. In the future, the dataset could accelerate the development of neural interfaces, rehabilitation technologies, and AI systems. The article has been published in Scientific Data.

‘Science Is Universal-It Knows No Borders

Fuad Aleskerov, Tenured Professor and Director of the International Centre of Decision Choice and Analysis at HSE University, together with his colleagues, has developed methods of network analysis in bibliometrics that have made it possible to identify patterns in the appearance and citation of publications in academic journals, as well as their influence on each other. When one or a number of studies are frequently cited by a wide range of journals, this is an indicator that the research is of high quality. By contrast, extensive cross-citation within a limited group of journals increases the likelihood of identifying a network of predatory publications.

Some Characteristics of Credal Sets and Their Application to Analysis of Polls Results

P. 572–578.

Bronevich A., Spiridenkova N.

In the theory of imprecise probabilities there are well established functionals for measuring uncertainty. Meanwhile, when we try to apply them to real problems they have a lack of meaningful interpretation. In this investigation we propose some characteristics of credal sets that seem to be useful for analyzing polls results.

A metric approach for scheduling problems with minimizing the maximum penalty

Lazarev A. A., Lemtyuzhnikova D., Werner F., Applied Mathematical Modelling 2021 Vol. 89 No. 2 P. 1163–1176

NP -hard scheduling problems with the criterion of minimizing the maximum penalty, e.g. maximum lateness, are considered. For such problems, a metric which delivers an upper bound on the absolute error of the objective function value is introduced. Taking the given instance of some problem and using the introduced metric, the nearest instance is deter- ...
