Physicists Discover What Happens Inside a Stable Vortex
Large vortices with characteristic spiral arms are often observed in the atmosphere and the ocean. Physicists from HSE University have explained how these structures form and why they retain their shape. The researchers found that velocities at points located along the same vortex arc remain correlated even over long distances. At the same time, this correlation weakens rapidly with increasing distance from the vortex centre. These differences help explain the formation of spiral arms and may improve models of atmospheric and oceanic currents. The findings have been published in Physical Review Fluids.

Human face detection in excessive dark image by using contrast stretching, histogram equalization and adaptive equalization

International Journal of Engineering and Technology. 2018. Vol. 7. No. 4. P. 3990–3994.
Ahmed Munna M. T.

Darkness is the inverse state of the brightness, is obtained as an absence of noticeable light and illumination. Generally, face detection applications cannot detect any human face in a dark image, where the image has captured from the dark environment or dark night. In this manuscript, we demonstrate our experiment, where we use Contrast Stretching, Histogram Equalization and Adaptive Equalization techniques for detecting any human face in any dark image. In this paper, we also illustrate our proposed algorithm, working procedure and differentiate the pixel intensity of different stage of image processing. We essentially do this research from an application perspective, where a software application detects the human face from a dark photo or a very low-contrast image and the photo has been captured from an excessive dark environment.

Three Algorithms for Merging Hierarchical Navigable Small World Graphs
Ponomarenko A., / Series Computer Science "arxiv.org". 2025.
This paper addresses the challenge of merging hierarchical navigable small world (HNSW) graphs, a critical operation for distributed systems, incremental indexing, and database compaction. We propose three algorithms for this task: Naive Graph Merge (NGM), Intra Graph Traversal Merge (IGTM), and Cross Graph Traversal Merge (CGTM). These algorithms differ in their approach to vertex selection ...

Growth in noncommutative algebras and entropy in derived categories
Piontkovski D., / Series arXiv "math". 2026.
A noncommutative projective variety is defined, following Artin and Zhang, by a graded coherent algebra 𝐴. The category of coherent sheaves is then the quotient qgr(𝐴) of the category of finitely presented graded modules by the subcategory of torsion modules. We consider the categorical and polynomial entropies of the Serre twist, that is, of the ...

Multilinear nilalgebras and the Jacobian theorem
Piontkovski D., / Series arXiv "math". 2025.
If a symmetric multilinear algebra is weakly nil, then it is Engel. This result may be regarded as an infinite-dimensional analogue of the well-known Jacobian theorem, which states that if a polynomial mapping has a polynomial inverse, then its Jacobian matrix is invertible. This refines a theorem of Gerstenhaber and partially answers a question posed ...

Digital human models (DHM) for virtual environments allow a cost-effective and reproducible evaluation of computer vision algorithms that are employed in robotics, e.g., human detection, tracking and following. Yet, many popular robotics simulators do not achieve a reasonable level of realism and diversity required to rigorously test such algorithms under varying conditions. This paper introduces ...

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 ...

Digital steganography protects the privacy of data by hiding them in some digital containers, such as images. Protection of confidential messages by hiding them in digital images faces the problem of balancing the main performance indicators, i.e. embedding imperceptibility and capacity. Metaheuristic optimization can be used to flexibly customize embedding options, including parameters and locations ...

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 ...
