The 'Second Shift' Is Not Why Women Avoid News
Women are more likely than men to avoid political and economic news, but the reasons for this behaviour are linked less to structural inequality or family-related stress than to personal attitudes and the emotional perception of news content. This conclusion was reached by HSE researchers after analysing data from a large-scale survey of more than 10,000 residents across 61 regions of Russia. The study findings have been published in Woman in Russian Society.

A Dynamic Programming Heuristic for Optimizing Slot Sizes in a Warehouse

Procedia Computer Science. 2014. Vol. 31. P. 773–777.
Pavel Sukhov, Mikhail Batsyn, Petr Terentev

There exist a number of mathematical problems in the literature concerning warehouse storage optimization. However, to the best of our knowledge the problem of finding optimal slot sizes in pallet rack system minimizing the occupied storage space is not studied. More precisely, the problem is to optimally choose k  of m  pallet racks with pallets in a warehouse, find optimal slot sizes in pallet racks for these pallets, and reassign the pallets to the new slots in order to reduce the occupied space maximally. In this paper we suggest a dynamic programming heuristic which finds optimal slot sizes for the given number k  of pallet racks in a warehouse. Our computational experiments are based on real-life data and demonstrate the efficiency of the suggested algorithm.

ML-based Fast Simulation of FARICH Responses
Shipilov F., Barnyakov A., Ivanov A. et al., / Series Physics "arxiv.org". 2026.
A fast simulation of the detector response is a vital task in high-energy physics (HEP). Traditional Monte-Carlo methods form the backbone of modern particle physics simulation software but are computationally expensive. We present a machine-learning-based approach to fast simulation of the Focusing Aerogel Ring Imaging Cherenkov (FARICH) detector response. Given a particle track and momentum, ...

Natural hazard database from Internet publications: text mining with a large language model
Derkacheva A., Sakirkina M., Kraev G. et al., /. 2026.
Comprehensive data on natural hazards and their consequences are crucial for effective for risk assessment, adaptation planning, and emergency response. However, many countries face challenges with fragmented, inconsistent, and inaccessible data, particularly regarding local-scale events. To address this data gap in Russia, we developed an end-to-end processing pipeline that scrapes news from various online sources, ...

Ising models on the hydrogen peroxide and other lattices
Qin X., Deng Y., Shchur L. et al., / Series arXiv "math". 2026. No. 2603.02962.
We perform a Monte Carlo analysis of the Ising model on many three-dimensional lattices. By means of finite-size scaling we obtain the critical points and determine the scaling dimensions. As expected, the critical exponents agree with the three-dimensional Ising universality class for all models. The irrelevant field, as revealed by the correction-to-scaling amplitudes, appears to ...

Algorithmic overlaps as thermodynamic variables: from local to cluster Monte Carlo dynamics in critical phenomena
Pilé I., Deng Y., Shchur L., / Series arXiv "math". 2026. No. 2604.10254.
We investigate the spatial overlap of successive spin configurations in Markov chain Monte Carlo simulations using the local Metropolis algorithm and the Svendsen-Wang and Wolff cluster algorithms. We examine the dynamics of these algorithms for two models in different universality classes: the Ising model and the Potts model with three components. The overlap of two ...

Using predefined vector systems to speed up neural network multimillion class classification
Gabdullin N., Androsov I., / Series Computer Science "arxiv.org". 2026.
Label prediction in neural networks (NNs) has O(n) complexity proportional to the number of classes. This holds true for classification using fully connected layers and cosine similarity with some set of class prototypes. In this paper we show that if NN latent space (LS) geometry is known and possesses specific properties, label prediction complexity can ...

Iterative Ricci-Foster Curvature Flow with GMM-Based Edge Pruning: A Novel Approach to Community Detection
Sorokin K., Beketov M., Онучин А. et al., / arxiv.org. Серия cs.SI "Social and Information Networks ". 2025.
Community detection in complex networks is a fundamental problem, open to new approaches in various scientific settings. We introduce a novel community detection method, based on Ricci flow on graphs. Our technique iteratively updates edge weights (their metric lengths) according to their (combinatorial) Foster version of Ricci curvature computed from effective resistance distance between the ...

Implementing Transport Coding in OMNeT++ for Message Delay Reduction
Petrovanov I., Sergeev A., / Series Computer Science "arxiv.org". 2025. No. 2512.18332.
Transport coding reduces message delay in packet-switched networks by introducing controlled redundancy at the transport layer:  original packets are encoded into  coded packets, and the message is reconstructed after the first  successful deliveries, effectively shifting latency from the maximum packet delay to the -th order statistic. We present a concise, reproducible discrete-event implementation of transport coding in OMNeT++, including ...

Hessian-based lightweight neural network for brain vessel segmentation on a minimal training dataset
Меньшиков И. А., Бернадотт А. К., Elvimov N. S., / Series arXie "Statistical mechanics". 2025.
Accurate segmentation of blood vessels in brain magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) is essential for successful surgical procedures, such as aneurysm repair or bypass surgery. Currently, annotation is primarily performed through manual segmentation or classical methods, such as the Frangi filter, which often lack sufficient accuracy. Neural networks have emerged as powerful tools for medical image ...

Determining the boundary of dynamical chaos in the generalized Chirikov map via machine learning
Chernyshov D., Satanin A., Shchur L., / Series arXiv "math". 2025.
We investigate the boundary separating regular and chaotic dynamics in the generalized Chirikov map, an extension of the standard map with phase-shifted secondary kicks. Lyapunov maps were computed across the parameter space (K,K(α, τ)) and used to train a convolutional neural network (ResNet18) for binary classification of dynamical regimes. The model reproduces the known critical ...

Diffusion on language model embeddings for protein sequence generation
Meshchaninov V., Strashnov, P., Shevtsov A. et al., / Cornell University. Серия CoRR, arXiv:2403.03726 "Computing Research Repository,". 2025.
Protein design requires a deep understanding of the inherent complexities of the protein universe. While many efforts lean towards conditional generation or focus on specific families of proteins, the foundational task of unconditional generation remains underexplored and undervalued. Here, we explore this pivotal domain, introducing DiMA, a model that leverages continuous diffusion on embeddings derived ...

Smoothie: Smoothing Diffusion on Token Embeddings for Text Generation
Shabalin A., Meshchaninov V., Vetrov D., / Series cs.CL, arXiv:2505.18853 "Computation and Language". 2025.
Diffusion models have achieved state-of-the-art performance in generating images, audio, and video, but their adaptation to text remains challenging due to its discrete nature. Prior approaches either apply Gaussian diffusion in continuous latent spaces, which inherits semantic structure but struggles with token decoding, or operate in categorical simplex space, which respect discreteness but disregard semantic ...

Computer vision is one of the most relevant modern research areas with broad practical applications. However, traditional solutions based on deep learning have signicant limitations and can be misleading. Topological data analysis, on the other hand, is a modern approach to solving similar problems using mathematically deterministic methods of algebraic topology that reduce the risk ...

D. V. Gribanov, Shumilov I. A., D. S. Malyshev, Optimization Letters 2024 Vol. 18 P. 73–103
In this work we consider the problem of computing the (min,+)-convolution of two sequences a and b of lengths n and m, respectively, where n≥m. We assume that a is arbitrary, but b_i=f(i), where f(x):[0,m)→R is a function with one of the following properties: f is linear, f is monotone, f is convex, f is concave, f is piece-wise linear, f is a polynomial function of a fixed degree. To the best of our knowledge, the concave, piece-wise linear and polynomial ...
