DaNetQA: a yes/no Question Answering Dataset for the Russian Language

Despite a lot of interest for the factors influencing the choice of pronoun (reflexive or personal) with an antecedent in Russian, the role of the anaphotic relation—coreference or semantic binding—has been understudied, including disagreements as to the acceptability of particular data points. To clarify things, I employ large corpora (Araneum and GICR) to study the ...

Juxtapositional vs. possessive-like encoding in Russian specificational constructions

Logvinova N., Russian linguistics 2026 Vol. 50 Article 11

This paper presents the first in-depth corpus-based study of a previously overlooked syntactic variation in Russian: the competition between juxtapositional (Nominative) and possessive-like (Genitive) encoding of the second noun (the term) in specificational constructions (e.g., ponjatie čest’ (notion.NOM honor.NOM) vs. ponjatie česti (notion.NOMhonor.GEN) ‘the notion of honor’). While typological research has established cross-linguistic preferences for one encoding strategy over another, intralinguistic variation ...

Дискриминативная лемматизация сокращений в эпоху LLM

Глазкова А. В., Смаль И. В., Lyashevskaya O. et al., Доклады Российской академии наук. Математика, информатика, процессы управления (ранее - Доклады Академии Наук. Математика) 2025 Т. 527 С. 146–155

This paper presents a study on the effectiveness of discriminative methods for abbreviation lemmatization in Russian texts. Unlike generative approaches, discriminative models select the optimal lemma from a fixed set of candidates, eliminating the risk of generating grammatically incorrect word forms. For the first time in Russian language processing, we conduct a comprehensive analysis of ...

Rubic2: Ensemble Model for Russian Lemmatization

Afanasev I., Glazkova A., Lyashevskaya O. et al., , in: Proceedings of the 10th Workshop on Slavic Natural Language Processing (Slavic NLP 2025).: Association for Computational Linguistics, 2025. P. 157–170.

Pre-trained language models have significantly advanced natural language processing (NLP), particularly in analyzing languages with complex morphological structures. This study addresses lemmatization for the Russian language, the errors in which can critically affect the performance of information retrieval, question answering, and other tasks. We present the results of experiments on generative lemmatization using pre-trained language ...

Transformer-based approaches for lemmatizing abbreviations in Russian texts

Glazkova A., Lyashevskaya O., Morozov D. et al., Journal of Mathematical Sciences 2025 Vol. 546 P. 32–47

This paper addresses the task of lemmatizing abbreviations in the Russian language. Abbreviation lemmatization is particularly challenging, as it involves not only transforming a word into its normal form but also correctly expanding the abbreviation. We explore two approaches to this task, both leveraging large pretrained language models. The first approach is generative, where the ...

Semi-fake indexicals in Russian

Tiskin D., Типология морфосинтаксических параметров 2025 Vol. 8 No. 1 P. 112–129

There are several rival theories of fake indexicals, i.e. bound indexicals (prominently pronouns) whose φ-features do not semantically contribute to focus alternatives (e.g. Only Mary did her homework, John didn’t do his). According to Minimal Pronoun theories (such as Kratzer’s or Wurmbrand’s), bound pronouns are Merged without φ-features and acquire them under binding via agreement-like ...

Некоторые модификации к теории связанных употреблений индексальных выражений И. Басси

Fake indexicals (FIs), or bound-variable uses of e.g. 1st - and 2 nd -person pronouns, have been analysed by Bassi (2021) as arising from a post-syntactic process of inspecting the features of the referent. This leads to a peculiar analysis of the syntax and semantics of relative clauses containing FIs. I argue for a more ...

Gender stereotypes in agreement processing with role nouns: a study on Russian

Slioussar N., Antropova D., Frontiers in Psychology 2025 Vol. 16 Article 1619505

The majority of Russian nouns denoting professions and social roles are grammatically masculine. Some of them have feminine pairs, the others do not, but in modern Russian, most nouns in this group can be used to refer to women — either with masculine or with feminine agreement. This option has some interesting limitations that have ...
