Scientists Create Open Dataset for Studying Concentration
A team of Russian researchers, including scientists from HSE University–St Petersburg, has developed the first open multimodal dataset containing recordings of brain activity, heart function, and video observations to help researchers understand what happens in the human brain during deep concentration. In the future, the dataset could accelerate the development of neural interfaces, rehabilitation technologies, and AI systems. The article has been published in Scientific Data.

‘Science Is Universal-It Knows No Borders
Fuad Aleskerov, Tenured Professor and Director of the International Centre of Decision Choice and Analysis at HSE University, together with his colleagues, has developed methods of network analysis in bibliometrics that have made it possible to identify patterns in the appearance and citation of publications in academic journals, as well as their influence on each other. When one or a number of studies are frequently cited by a wide range of journals, this is an indicator that the research is of high quality. By contrast, extensive cross-citation within a limited group of journals increases the likelihood of identifying a network of predatory publications.

Scientists Propose Method for More Efficient Resource Use in Machine Learning
An international group of researchers, including mathematicians from the AI and Digital Science Institute at the HSE Faculty of Computer Science, has provided a theoretical justification for a simple and computationally efficient method of estimating uncertainty in Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD). The paper has been published on the scientific preprint server arXiv.org and presented at AISTATS 2026.

Clustering Based on Data Envelopment Analysis: Application to Management Research and Practice

P. 142–145.
Kuskova V., Zaytsev D.

Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA), a linear programming technique, is becoming increasingly popular in management studies. A variety of extensions have been proposed since its first introduction in the late 1970s, and lately, the idea of using the tool for clustering data has received some attention in the literature. We have further extended the idea of DEA-based clustering by introducing the notion of clustering by DEA-generated vector, with some useful applications in non-homogeneous samples, data with unclear theoretical structure, or as an explanatory tool. We demonstrate how these techniques can be used in management on a sample from education industry.

Tunnel Clustering Method
F. T. Aleskerov, A. L. Myachin, V. I. Yakuba, Doklady Mathematics 2024 Vol. 110 No. 3 P. 474–479
We propose a novel method for rapid pattern analysis of high-dimensional numerical data, termed tunnel clustering. The main advantages of the method are its relatively low computational complexity, endogenous determination of cluster composition and number, and a high degree of interpretability of final results. We present descriptions of three different variations: one with fixed hyperparameters, ...

The concept of Z-number was proposed by Prof. Lotfi Zadeh to describe partial reliability of information, and it is a kind of fusion of fuzziness and probabilistic uncertainty. Z-number can be presented as a pair of fuzzy numbers Z(A,B) used to describe a value of a random variable X. The first component (A) is a ...

Gradient descent clustering with regularization to recover communities in transformed attributed networks
Shalileh S., Social Network Analysis and Mining 2025 Vol. 15212 P. 137–148
Community detection in attributed networks aims to recover clusters in which the within-community nodes are as interconnected and as homogeneous as possible, while the between-communities nodes are as disconnected and as heterogeneous as possible. The current research proposes a straightforward data-driven model with an integrated regularization term to recover communities. For further improvement of the ...

An empirical scrutinization of four crisp clustering methods with four distance metrics and one straightforward interpretation rule
T. A. Alvandyan, S. Shalileh, Doklady Mathematics 2024 Vol. 110 No. S1 P. S236–S250
Clustering has always been in great demand by scientific and industrial communities.  However, due to the lack of ground truth, interpreting its obtained results can be debatable. The current research provides an empirical benchmark on the efficiency of three popular and one recently proposed crisp clustering methods. To this end, we extensively analyzed these (four) ...

Это важный инструмент для решения задач в таких областях, как машинное обучение, обработка изображений, распознавание текста и т.д. Отсутствие наблюдений не всегда означает отсутствие информации, поэтому предполагается, что наличие пробелов в данных, наличие“пустых” кластеров, также несёт в себе информацию об объекте исследования, как и реальные наблюдения. В этом исследовании предполагается, ...

In the vicinity of the type-I/type-II crossover in conventional superconductors, vortices exhibit a nonmonotonic interaction, which leads to exotic vortex matter states. We perform molecular dynamics simulations on a model superconductor in the intertype regime. In a field cooled approach, we examine the transition of a homogeneous vortex lattice (VL) into a structure consisting of ...
