Neural Network Maps as a Method for Constructing Mathematical Models
Scientists from HSE University–Nizhny Novgorod and the Institute of Physics Belgrade, Serbia, are jointly exploring the application of machine learning techniques and neural networks to the study of nonlinear dynamics. Natalya Stankevich, Leading Research Fellow at the Laboratory of Topological Methods in Dynamics of the Faculty of Informatics, Mathematics, and Computer Science at HSE University–Nizhny Novgorod, spoke to the HSE News Service about this international project.

‘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.

Syntactic functions of non-manuals in Russian Sign Language

P. 90–129.
Burkova S., Khristoforova E., Kimmelman V.

This chapter presents the Russian Sign Language (RSL) Corpus and demonstrates
its capabilities as a research tool by summarizing three corpus-based
studies primarily focused on syntactic functions of nonmanual markers.
The first study considers question marking in regular wh-questions and in
question-answer pairs. It shows that the two constructions have very different
nonmanual markers. The second study analyzes marking of topics in RSL, and
shows that nonmanual markers of topics are typologically common, but are infrequent
in naturalistic corpus data. The third study investigates conditional and
concessive constructions in RSL. It demonstrates that these constructions make
extensive and frequent use of nonmanual markers, but that no single marker is
specialized for the function of expressing conditional or concessive meaning.
Instead, complex combinations of multiple markers are employed in these constructions.
All three studies also contribute to sign language typology by providing
novel descriptions of syntactic and discourse phenomena in RSL.

Вариативность годов vs. лет в русских говорах: корпусное исследование
Zemicheva S., Moroz G., Naccarato C., Вопросы языкознания 2025 № 6 С. 7–34
Наличие супплетивной формы лет в парадигме существительного год отличает русский язык от других восточнославянских. При этом в русских говорах вместо лет может использоваться вариант годов. Данные панхронического подкорпуса НКРЯ показывают, что форма годов, зафиксированная впервые в XV в., на всем протяжении истории русского языка была периферийной, в XVII–XVIII вв. использовалась преимущественно в нехудожественных текстах, а в ...

Towards a Cognitive Distortion Conditional
Denisova V., Manuscrito 2025 Vol. 48 No. 1 Article e-2024-0086-R2
Cognitive distortions, systematic biases in thinking that lead to erroneous beliefs and emotional distress, are challenging to identify and address due to their extensive variability and context-dependent nature. This paper explores the limitations of traditional approaches, such as Beck’s cognitive model of depression, in consistently detecting these distortions across diverse therapeutic settings. This approach uses ...

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 ...
