Road Injuries Leading Cause of Death Among Men Aged 10 to 39
Worldwide, road injuries are the leading cause of death among males aged 10–39. An international team of researchers reached this conclusion as part of the Global Burden of Disease Study 2023, analysing data from 204 countries between 1990 and 2023. Their findings have been published in The Lancet Public Health, with HSE University Professor Vasily Vlassov listed among the collaborators.

Coreference Chains in Czech, English and Russian: Preliminary Findings.

P. 474–486.
Toldova S., Nedoluzhko А., Novák M.

This paper is a pilot comparative study on coreference chaining in three languages, namely, Czech, English and Russian. We have analyzed 16 parallel English-Czech newspaper texts and 16 texts in Russian (similar to the English-Czech ones in length and topics). Our motivation was to find out what the linguistic structure of coreference chains in different languages is and what types of distinctions we should take into account for advancing the development of systems for coreference resolution. Taking into account theoretical approaches to the phenomenon of coreference we based our research on the following assumption: the recognition of coreference links for different structural types of noun phrases is regulated by different language mechanisms. The other starting point was that different languages allow pronominal chaining of different length and that coreference chains properties differ for the languages with different strategies for zero anaphora and different systems for definiteness marking. This work reports our first findings within the task of the structural NP types’ distribution comparison in three languages under analysis.

Russian Pronouns with Focus Antecedents: Coreference and Binding in Corpora
Tiskin D., Компьютерная лингвистика и интеллектуальные технологии 2026 No. 24 P. 656–665
Despite a lot of interest for the factors influencing the choice of pronoun (reflexive or personal) with an antecedent in Russian, the role of the anaphotic relation—coreference or semantic binding—has been understudied, including disagreements as to the acceptability of particular data points. To clarify things, I employ large corpora (Araneum and GICR) to study the ...

Anaphoric uses of demonstratives in Kina Rutul and Mehweb Dargwa
Mukhin T., Родной язык: лингвистический журнал 2026 No. 1 P. 169–193
This study presents the first systematic comparison of anaphoric uses of demonstratives in two East Caucasian languages, Kina Rutul (Lezgic) and Mehweb Dargwa (Dargwa). Both languages lack dedicated third-person pronouns and employ demonstratives anaphorically in both pronominal and adnominal positions. Data from thirteen Kina Rutul and nine Mehweb Dargwa Pear Stories show that the default demonstrative (in terms of ...

Русское местоимение ТАМ как средство анафоры к актанту
Letuchiy A., Вопросы языкознания 2021 Т. 2021 № 4 С. 72–90
The present article addresses a special use of the Russian locative pronoun tam: the use represented in examples like ‘I talked to her — no understanding of the situation there’. In those contexts, tam refers to a participant (usually animate), rather than a location. After a brief sketch of other uses, I describe the rules and restrictions on the ...

Указательная анафора в мультимодальной коммуникации
Николаева Ю. В., Евдокимова А. А., Budennaya E., В кн.: Компьютерная лингвистика и интеллектуальные технологииВып. 20 (27): Дополнительный том.: Изд-во РГГУ, 2021. С. 1130–1143.
Статья посвящена взаимодействию анафорических указательных выражений с параллельными жестами рук и головы на материале мультимодального корпуса RUPEX. Анализ выявил ряд корреляций между ролью говорящего (Рассказчик / Пересказчик / Комментатор) и его невербальным поведением. Было обнаружено, что Пересказчик, не видевший фильма, чаще прибегал к указательной анафоре, по сравнению с Рассказчиком. По-видимому, данными действиями Пересказчик стремился воссоздать ...

Non-canonical control in Russian converbial clauses
Жукова С. Ю., Zevakhina N., Slioussar N. et al., Russian linguistics 2020 Vol. 44 No. 2 P. 129–143
It has been acknowledged that the null subject of a converbial clause in Russian is canonically controlled by the Nominative subject of a main clause (Nominative subject control). Non-Nominative control has been considered ungrammatical. On the basis of two experiments (acceptability rating and speeded grammaticality judgement tasks) the paper shows that the non-Nominative control (by ...

This paper is a first step towards a corpus-based description of the semantics of Russian pronouns in intensional contexts. Having justified the use of corpus in (formal) semantic research, I delineate a particular issue within the topic: whether a given pronoun is interpreted de se or de re in counteridentity contexts. A counteridentity context is a ...

Issue 9623.: Springer Publishing Company, 2018. P. 648–662.
This paper concerns discourse-new mention detection in Russian. This might be helpful for different NLP applications such as coreference resolution, protagonist identification, summarization and different tasks of information extraction to detect the mention of an entity newly introduced into discourse. In our work, we are dealing with the Russian where there is no grammatical devices, ...

The paper focuses on one syntactic restriction on the use of the interrogative pronoun čto ‘what’. Contrary to kto ‘who’, čto disfavours constructions where it is syntactically parallel and co-referent to the anaphoric pronouns on ‘he’, ona ‘she’, and ono ‘it’. For instance, in the construction kogo “ego” (lit. ‘who “he”’), which the Russian speakers use to find out ...

This paper describes a pilot study of the problem of detecting singleton mentions in Russian texts. A noun phrase is considered a singleton mention if it is the only referent of some entity. We discuss various morphosyntactic and lexical features, some of which were used for analogous tasks for English and propose new features derived ...

This paper discusses two morphologically related anaphoric pronouns in Avar (Avar-Andic, Nakh-Daghestanian) and proposes that one of them should be treated as a minimal pronoun that receives its interpretation from a λ-operator situated on a phasal head whereas the other is a logophoric pronoun denoting the author of the reported event. ...
