Biologists Discover 'Molecular Fingerprint' of Preeclampsia
Researchers at HSE University employed a new method to model hypoxia in placental cells during pregnancies complicated by preeclampsia and identified molecular markers of tissue hypoxia. Since hypoxia is one of the key mechanisms underlying preeclampsia, these findings are important for a more accurate and timely diagnosis of the disease and for the development of effective treatment methods. The paper has been published in Placenta.

‘Speech, Facial Expressions, and Gestures Cannot Lie
Would you like to know whether a speaker’s trembling voice or an accidental gesture can give them away? At HSE University in Nizhny Novgorod, researchers are developing an algorithm that analyses speech, facial expressions, and gestures, and determines whether information is truthful with 92% accuracy. The project has applications ranging from forensic examination and bank recruitment to fundamental research. Anna Khomenko, head of the research group and Senior Research Fellow at the Centre for Language and Brain at the HSE Faculty of Humanities in Nizhny Novgorod, explains how students and researchers are working together to create a corpus of video recordings, train a classifier, and prepare to introduce computer vision technology.

CAT&kittens: a corpus-based text-analytic tool for Russian academic writing

P. 22–25.
Klimov A., Toldova S., Kopotev M., Zevakhina N., Дмитриева А. Д., Kisselev O., Баранчикова А., Федорова М.

The development of the CAT corpus follows established corpus development procedures (e.g., BAWE). It was collected by extracting recently published texts sourced from textbooks, academic journals, and collecting high-quality master’s theses from available sources. All texts entered in CAT are divided into six disciplinary fields: social studies and history, political science and international relations, law, general and applied linguistics, economics, psychology and education science. Every discipline sub-corpus consists of about 300 to 400 thousand tokens, amounting to appr. 2 million tokens in the corpus in general. CAT is supplied with metalinguistic information, as well as morphological and syntactic annotation, carried out with the help of the annotation software RU Syntax (Mediankin et al. 2016). Further corpus improvement is also planned. Since the main goal of the project is to create a tool that compares novice texts to standard academic texts along the lists of pre-set criteria, the tool will run a series of “error analysis” test. The patterns of deviations are identified along lexical, collocational, morphological, and syntactic planes.

Вариативность годов vs. лет в русских говорах: корпусное исследование
Zemicheva S., Moroz G., Naccarato C., Вопросы языкознания 2025 № 6 С. 7–34
Наличие супплетивной формы лет в парадигме существительного год отличает русский язык от других восточнославянских. При этом в русских говорах вместо лет может использоваться вариант годов. Данные панхронического подкорпуса НКРЯ показывают, что форма годов, зафиксированная впервые в XV в., на всем протяжении истории русского языка была периферийной, в XVII–XVIII вв. использовалась преимущественно в нехудожественных текстах, а в ...

The ‘adverb-ly adjective’ construction in English: meanings, distribution and discourse functions

We investigate a class of adjective phrases composed of a deadjectival adverb ending in -ly and an adjective head (e.g. staggeringly incompetent, absolutely terrific, fiscally responsible), a compact construction whereby two adjectives may jointly contribute to evaluative meaning. Using corpus methodologies on more than 1 million examples and relying on semantic analyses of about 1,000 instances, we propose that the ...
