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.

Конструирование и апробация семантического дифференциала "Волевой человек"

Психология. Журнал Высшей школы экономики. 2020. Т. 17. № 2. С. 210–222.
Смирнова О. Ю., Serkin V.

The article describes the procedure of developing the semantic differential “A strong-willed person”, which consists of seven stages. A semantic differential (SD) is a special form that has  a number of advantages in comparison with a traditional questionnaire. The SD method enables a respondent to assess the degree of qualities or characteristics of the evaluated concept (my volitional qualities) and gives a wider differential range of answers. In addition to that, the “A strong-willed person” SD allows to embrace a semantic diversity of the concept of volition, which is one of the most complicated psychological phenomena. The analysis of the psychological and philosophical literature as well as dictionaries has made it possible to identify the first set of descriptors. The second set of descriptors was developed on the basis of the free associative experiment (102 respondents) and the method of defining concepts using the expertise of the professional psychologists (the 1-3 stages of SD elaboration). During the fourth stage a primary form of the SD “A strong-willed person” was worked out on the basis of the primary matrix of the group assessment results (62 people), which was processed by identifying the semantic universals of the group assessment and the factor analysis (the fifth stage). Finally, the working version of the SD was designed to gauge the volitional qualities of a person. The adherence to the semantic structure of the assessment proves the constructive validity of the suggested form, while the method of semantic reconstruction confirms its content validity. The developed method can be used as a diagnostic tool in consulting psychology. It might also be helpful in self-discovery and self-development.

Почему растущие доходы не делают людей счастливее: эмоциональное объяснение парадокса Истерлина
Vorchik A., Вопросы экономики 2026
This work is devoted to a theoretical explanation of the Easterlin paradox, according to which long-term economic growth does not make average level of people's happiness increasing. By happiness, we mean the intensity of emotions people experience while comparing their new income with its expected value, or the target income with its original value. In the first case, ...

Sweet-taste liking is associated with preference for less risky and immediate rewards in economic decision-making
Давидович А. С., Shestakova A., Arzumanyan N. et al., Frontiers in Psychology 2026 Vol. 17 - 2026 P. 1–18
Background:  Delay discounting refers to the tendency to choose sooner, smaller rewards over larger, later rewards. Many previous studies link this tendency positively to reward sensitivity, yet the specific mechanisms behind this association remain poorly understood. Reward sensitivity may relate to delay discounting through at least three possible pathways: increased sensitivity to reward size, increased sensitivity ...

Heritability of Functional Literacy: Evidence from a Classical Twin Design
Kolachev N., Kovaleva G., Behavior Genetics 2026
Functional literacy—the ability to apply reading, mathematical, and scientific knowledge in authentic contexts as operationalized by the PISA framework—is a key predictor of educational attainment, labour-market outcomes, and economic growth. Despite extensive behavioral-genetic research on cognitive ability, the heritability of competency-based literacy measures remains largely unexamined, particularly outside Western populations. The present study addresses this ...

How virtual urban green spaces influence stress and risk-taking
Dorri Sedeh S., Kosonogov V., Kerimova N. et al., Frontiers in Psychology 2026 Vol. 17 Article 1710257
Introduction:  As cities continue to grow, access to natural environments is becoming more limited, contributing to increased stress levels in urban populations. Panoramic 360° videos provide a creative and scalable means of simulating natural environments, potentially reducing stress in city residents under controlled settings. Here, we examined whether short immersive experiences in different urban environments support ...

Novelty, Category and Orientation Tuning for Printed Characters: A Magnetoencephalography Study with Fast Periodic Visual Stimulation
Kochetkova Ekaterina, Kostanian D., Martynova O. et al., Brain Topography 2026 Vol. 39 No. 4 Article 51
Letter recognition is assumed to involve several levels of analysis, including coarse tuning for category and novelty and more fine tuning for specific features, related to letter orientation. We employed an oddball fast periodic visual stimulation (FPVS) paradigm with magnetoencephalography (Elekta VectorView, 306 sensors) to study neural discrimination responses in the source space. Using contrasts ...

Overcoming the Curse of Dimensionality with Synolitic AI
Zaikin A., Sviridov I., Sosedka A. et al., Technologies 2026 Vol. 14 No. 2 Article 84
High-dimensional tabular data are common in biomedical and clinical research, yet conventional machine learning methods often struggle in such settings due to data scarcity, feature redundancy, and limited generalization. In this study, we systematically evaluate Synolitic Graph Neural Networks (SGNNs), a framework that transforms high-dimensional samples into sample-specific graphs by training ensembles of low-dimensional pairwise ...

Embodied language and early motor restriction: evidence from children with obstetric brachial plexus palsy and arthrogryposis
Kadieva D., Blagoveshchensky E., Agranovich O. et al., Frontiers in Psychology 2026 Vol. 17 Article 1832623
Embodied and embedded cognition (EEC) theory proposes that language and cognitive development emerge from bodily interactions with the environment, yet empirical tests of this claim in clinical developmental populations remain rare. This mini-review synthesizes behavioral, electrophysiological, and structural neuroimaging evidence from children with serious early motor disorders—obstetric brachial plexus palsy and arthrogryposis multiplex congenita—which restrict ...

General and Specific Facets of Anxiety: Psychometric Analysis and Impact on Cognitive Performance
Alenina E., Kristina Terenteva, Kosonogov V., Behavioral Sciences 2026 Vol. 16 No. 5 Article 806
Anxiety is a multidimensional construct that influences cognitive performance in complex ways, yet its factor structure and domain-specific effects remain unclear. This study examined (1) the psychometric structure of general and specific anxiety measures, (2) their associations with cognitive performance across different domains, and (3) the predictive power of machine learning models in classifying cognitive ...
