HSE Scientists Train Neural Network to 'Hear' Faults in Electric Motors
Researchers at the AI and Digital Science Institute of the HSE Faculty of Computer Science have developed a new method—the Signature-Guided Data Augmentation (SGDA) framework—that achieves 99% accuracy in motor fault detection and 86% accuracy in fault classification. The application of this approach can reduce industrial equipment repair costs, minimise downtime, and improve production safety. The study results have been published in Engineering Applications of Artificial Intelligence.

Women, Gender, and Technosciences, 1900–2020. A Beard to Govern

Routledge, 2025.
Under the general editorship: G. Dufaud, I. Lémonon‑Waxin

This innovative volume analyzes the historical entanglement of gender, technosciences, and government/governance.

Situated at the crossroad of women and gender studies, science and technology studies, and political sociology, this volume shows the ever‑accumulating gendered mechanisms that have determined the careers of scientific women and their access to power positions. It underlines on different scales—from the lab to international organizations or states—how the masculine culture of technoscientific practices has assigned women to subaltern institutional positions, while social practices of legitimization and recognition ended up granting some women access to leadership positions outside of institutions. With a broad geographic, political, and disciplinary scope, the contributors draw on a variety of new sources including interviews, private collections, and archives to examine the institutions, structures, and policies that shaped the technosciences, as well as the individuals who developed practices and environments that gained agency for themselves and their contemporaries.

This book will be of interest to students and scholars alike interested in women and gender studies, political studies, STS, history, and sociology of science and technology.

Председатель Государственной думы в политической системе Российской империи (1907—1912 гг.)
Solovyov K., Электронный научно-образовательный журнал "История" 2026 Т. 17 № 2
В статье рассматривается председатель Думы как политический институт, который заметно эволюционировал вместе со всей политической системы Российской империи. Отчасти это объясняется поступательным расширением полномочий Думы, отчасти личными качествами председателей и той партийной поддержкой, на которую они могли рассчитывать. Так или иначе, в условиях неустойчивости правил игры, рыхлости фракционных структур председатель обретал широкий круг полномочий, что делало его весьма влиятельной фигурой в ...
