‘In the Age of Technology, It Is Interesting to Look into the Past and Think about What We Can Take from It
Polina Tabakova decided to apply for a Philology degree at HSE in Nizhny Novgorod because she grew up in Mari El and did not want to move far away from the Russian forests. In an interview for the Young Scientists of HSE University project, she spoke about the genre of the campus novel, the existential drama of Kolobok, and a blackout version of Eugene Onegin.

HSE Scientists Develop Method to Compress Large Language Models Without Losing Quality
Researchers from the AI and Digital Science Institute at the HSE Faculty of Computer Science have developed a new compression method for large language models such as GPT and LLaMA that reduces their size by 25–36% without additional training or significant loss of accuracy. This is the first approach to use mathematical transformations—specifically, rotations of model weights—to make models more amenable to compression with structured matrices. The study results have been published in ACL Findings 2025. The code is available on GitHub.

Textual metaphtonymy as opposed to lexical metaphtonymy
Trofimova N., Pesina S., Vinogradova S. et al., Brazilian Journal of Education, Technology and Society - BRAJETS 2025 Vol. 17 No. 3 P. 126–136
n this article, we have proposed to differentiate textual and lexical metaphtonymy as different phenomena. We have considered the phenomenon of metaphtonymy at the level of text, a chain of words the length of a sentence, a phrase, and a separate meaning. We propose to reserve the term “metaphtonymy” for cases when we are talking ...

The immediate and the naive metaphysics

In this article, I discuss Pirmin Stekeler-Weithofer’s ideas about the nature of language and the metaphysical residue that seems to be present in the realm of immediate experience, despite all the criticism and success of positive knowledge. This includes, first and foremost, the ability to perceive objects, facts, and possible worlds which humans have from ...

Measuring the semantic priming effect across many languages
Buchanan E., Cuccolo K., Heyman T. et al., Nature Human Behaviour 2026 Vol. 10 No. 1 P. 182–201
Semantic priming has been studied for nearly 50 years across various experimental manipulations and theoretical frameworks. Although previous studies provide insight into the cognitive underpinnings of semantic representations, they have suffered from small sample sizes and a lack of linguistic and cultural diversity. In this Registered Report, we measured the size and the variability of ...

The ‘adverb-ly adjective’ construction in English: meanings, distribution and discourse functions
Taboada M., Goddard C., Trnavac R., English Language and Linguistics 2025 Vol. 29 No. 1 P. 102–131
We investigate a class of adjective phrases composed of a deadjectival adverb ending in -ly and an adjective head (e.g. staggeringly incompetent, absolutely terrific, fiscally responsible), a compact construction whereby two adjectives may jointly contribute to evaluative meaning. Using corpus methodologies on more than 1 million examples and relying on semantic analyses of about 1,000 instances, we propose that the ...

The paper is devoted to the basic principles of verbal colexification defined at the cross-linguistic level. We understand colexification as a non-random association of two or more meanings within one and the same lexical item. We argue that these associations, reproducing in different languages, should follow certain principles and form clear patterns. Drawing on our extensive experience of ...

The so-called cross-modal correspondence effect is a special case of multisensory integration; it manifests as faster and more accurate responses to simultaneously presented stimuli of different modalities that are congruent in certain features (e.g., high-pitch sound — high spatial location), as opposed to incongruent ones. This study assessed the extent to which individual emotional characteristics ...
