HSE Researchers Show How Congenital Motor Disorders Affect Brain Development
Researchers from HSE University’s Institute for Cognitive Neuroscience have synthesised the findings of their previous studies on brain development in children with obstetric brachial plexus palsy and arthrogryposis. Their analysis shows that impaired motor function in early childhood not only limits children’s motor experience but also affects memory, categorical thinking, and information processing. The study has been published in Frontiers in Psychology.

Window into the Body: Scientists Develop Neural Network to Detect Risk of 15 Diseases from Retinal Images
Russian universities, with the participation of HSE University, Sber, and Z-union, have developed a neural network that can simultaneously assess the risk of 15 types of pathology from retinal photographs, including not only eye diseases but also cardiovascular conditions. The AI system can help clinicians detect potentially concerning changes at an early stage, identify signs reflecting the condition of retinal blood vessels, and determine whether a patient may need further examination. The paper has been published in Frontiers in Medicine.

'We Did Not Limit the Time for Questions'
The International Laboratory for Supercomputer Atomistic Modelling and Multi-Scale Analysis at HSE University held a major conference on molecular dynamics. Participants had the opportunity to attend all the presentations, while speakers were given as much time as they needed to answer questions. The HSE News Service interviewed Grigory Smirnov, Head of the Laboratory, and Genri Norman, Chief Research Fellow, about the conference preparations and the discussions it generated.

Using Taxonomy Tree to Generalize a Fuzzy Thematic Cluster

P. 1–6.
Frolov D., Mirkin B., Nascimento S., Fenner T.

This paper presents an algorithm, ParGenFS, for generalizing, or “lifting”, a fuzzy set of topics to higher ranks of a hierarchical taxonomy of a research domain. The algorithm ParGenFS finds a globally optimal generalization of the topic set to minimize a penalty function, by balancing the number of introduced “head subjects” and related errors, the “gaps” and “offshoots”, differently weighted. This leads to a generalization of the topic set in the taxonomy. The usefulness of the method is illustrated on a set of 17685 abstracts of research papers on Data Science published in Springer journals for the past 20 years. We extracted a taxonomy of Data Science from the international Association for Computing Machinery Computing Classification System 2012 (ACM-CCS). We find fuzzy clusters of leaf topics over the text collection, lift them in the taxonomy, and interpret found head subjects to comment on the tendencies of current research.

The generalized autoregressive conditional heteroscedasticity model is widely applied to financial time series. There are further generalizations of this model. One of such generalizations is a combination of Takagi–Sugeno type fuzzy systems and autoregressive conditional heteroscedasticity models. The Takagi–Sugeno fuzzy systems advantage is that there is a standalone generalized autoregressive conditional heteroscedasticity model constructed for ...

A Robust Credibility DEA Model with Fuzzy Perturbation Degree: An Application to Hospitals Performance

Performance evaluation enables decision makers (DMs) to have a better view about the weaknesses and strengths of leading units to improve efficiencies as a crucial goal. Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is the most popular technique to measure performance efficiency of decision making units (DMUs). However, conventional DEA is unable to consider uncertainty of input and ...

Abstraction and Generalization in the Logic of Science: Cases from Nineteenth-Century Scientific Practice
Pietarinen A., Cristalli C., HOPOS 2021 Vol. 11 No. 1 P. 93–121
Abstraction and generalization are two processes of reasoning that have a special role in the construction of scientific theories and models. They have been important parts of the scientific method ever since the nineteenth century. A philosophical and historical analysis of scientific practices shows how abstraction and generalization found their way into the theory of ...

We define and find a most specific generalization of a fuzzy set of topics assigned to leaves of the rooted tree of a taxonomy. This generalization lifts the set to a “head subject” in the higher ranks of the taxonomy, that is supposed to “tightly” cover the query set, possibly bringing in some errors, both ...
