‘The Peak of Stupidity and ‘The Valley of Despair: HSE Economists Propose an Explanation for the Dunning–Kruger Effect
The Dunning–Kruger effect, which describes a sharp surge in self-confidence among beginners followed by an equally rapid decline as they gain experience, can be explained by the nature of the learning process and the acquisition of new knowledge. This conclusion was reached by Andrey Vorchik of the HSE Faculty of Economic Sciences together with independent researcher Murat Mamyshev. They developed a mathematical model of learning and demonstrated how subjective confidence is formed and changes as knowledge accumulates, as well as how teachers can reduce the ‘valley of despair’ experienced by learners.

Interval Semi-supervised LDA: Classifying Needles in a Haystack

P. 265–274.
Bodrunova S., Koltsov S., Koltsova O., Nikolenko S. I., Shimorina A.

An important text mining problem is to fi nd, in a large collection of texts, documents related to speci c topics and then discern further structure among the found texts. This problem is especially important for social sciences, where the purpose is to nd the most representative documents for subsequent qualitative interpretation. To solve this problem, we propose an interval semi-supervised LDA approach, in which certain prede ned sets of keywords (that de ne the topics researchers are interested in) are restricted to speci c intervals of topic assignments. We present a case study on a Russian LiveJournal dataset aimed at ethnicity discourse analysis.
