HSE Scientists Train Neural Network to 'Hear' Faults in Electric Motors
Researchers at the AI and Digital Science Institute of the HSE Faculty of Computer Science have developed a new method—the Signature-Guided Data Augmentation (SGDA) framework—that achieves 99% accuracy in motor fault detection and 86% accuracy in fault classification. The application of this approach can reduce industrial equipment repair costs, minimise downtime, and improve production safety. The study results have been published in Engineering Applications of Artificial Intelligence.

Is It Possible to Predict a Citys Life Based on the Shape of Its Neighbourhoods?
Is it possible to predict, based on the configuration of streets and buildings, where a café will open or where traffic congestion will occur? Participants in the Spatial Analysis and Modelling of Urban Processes research and study group use open data and machine learning to identify universal patterns. Alexander Sheludkov and Eduard Somov discuss the purpose of comparing cities, the need for new forms of urban statistics, and how open data is transforming approaches to urban studies.

Uvular consonants in Languages of the Caucasus

P. 150–153.
Moroz G., Martynova Aleksandra

We present a database of uvular consonant subsystems of indigenous languages of the Caucasus from all branches (Northwest Caucasian, East Caucasian and Kartvelian). Data for the database were collected from existing language descriptions and field work. All in all, 39 languages were analyzed. This database allows us to systematically compare the inventories of uvular consonants in the Caucasian languages and create a predictive model for the co-occurrence of particular uvular consonants.

Numeral systems in Lezgic languages
Melenchenko M., Folia Linguistica 2025 Vol. 59 No. 3 P. 785–821
The paper presents an overview of numeral systems in Lezgic languages (East Caucasian) and discusses hypotheses about their diachronic development. Similarly to other branches of the East Caucasian family, languages of the Lezgic branch have either a decimal (base-10) or a vigesimal (base-20) system. Decimal systems are attested in languages and dialects in the northwestern ...

An Aramaic Verb Form in a Neo-Babylonian Letter

This paper offers an interpretation of an insufficiently understood verb form in the Neo-Babylonian letter OIP 114, 17:8, 29, thereby clarifying its contents. The word in question is shown to be an Aramaic verb form. This interpretation is supported by observations on the orthography and phonology of early Neo-Babylonian. It follows from the study that ...

Согласование по косвенности в нахско-дагестанских языках: обзор эмпирических данных

The paper is a survey of all available descriptive data on a rare agreement pattern observed in East Caucasian (Nakh-Daghestanian) languages under which nominal dependents take different forms depending on whether their head is in the nominative case or any other case. I show that, depending on the language, “agreement in obliqueness” is attested in ...

The paper provides a description of nominal inflection in Kina Rutul, a variety of the Rutul language (< Lezgic < Nakh Daghestanian). The description is based on three concepts of paradigmatic classification: class of inflectional equivalence, inflectional type and paradigmatic effect.

This paper presents a description of three classes of lexemes in Kina Rutul (Lezgic, East Caucasian): spatial adverbs, adverbial postpositions and postpositions proper.

Neurophysiological Correlates of Top-Down Phonological and Semantic Influence during the Orthographic Processing of Novel Visual Word-Forms
Bermúdez-Margaretto B., Beltrán D., Shtyrov Y. et al., Brain Sciences 2020 Vol. 10 No. 10 P. 1–19
The acquisition of new vocabulary is usually mediated by previous experience with language. In the visual domain, the representation of orthographically unfamiliar words at the phonological or conceptual levels may facilitate their orthographic learning. The neural correlates of this advantage were investigated by recording EEG activity during reading novel and familiar words across three different ...

The article considers the problems of reconstructing the text of the Passio S. Susannae (BHL 7937) from the point of view of phonology and orthography and systematizes the results achieved. It is argued that the ‘non-classical’ orthographic forms encountered in the manuscripts of the work mainly belong to its original text; radical approaches are criticized ...

Small-scale multilingualism through the prism of lexical borrowing
Chechuro I., Daniel M., Verhees S., International Journal of Bilingualism 2021 Vol. 25 No. 4 P. 1019–1039
Aims and Objectives: We assess whether data on lexical borrowings obtained through field elicitation may point back not only to a specific donor language but also to its specific regional variety, and hence whether these data are a reliable tool for reconstructing unknown historical patterns of interaction between ethnic (sub-)groups. Methodology: We use quantitative analysis of ...

The role of native-language phonology in the auditory word identification and visual word recognition of Russian-English bilinguals
Shafiro V., Kharkhurin A. V., Journal of Psycholinguistic Research 2009 Vol. 38 No. 2 P. 93–110
Does native language phonology influence visual word processing in a second language? This question was investigated in two experiments with two groups of Russian-English bilinguals, differing in their English experience, and a monolingual English control group. Experiment 1 tested visual word recognition following semantic categorization of words containing four phonological vowel contrasts (/i/−/u/,/I/−/∧/,/i/−/I/,/ε/−/\ae//i/−/u/,/I/−/∧/,/i/−/I/,/ε/−/\ae/). Experiment 2 ...
