Physicist Nina Dzhanayeva, recipient of a Vladimir Potanin Foundation scholarship, focuses her research on nanophotonics. In this interview for the HSE Young Scientists project, she discusses nanowells, scientific intuition, and how physics can help in making frangipane cream puffs.
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.
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.

The exact value of the complexity of the circuit implementation of an arbitrary Boolean function in a certain basis consisting of negation and all monotone Boolean functions is found. The complexity of a function is defined as the least number of basis elements sufficient to construct a circuit implementation of this function. ...

The problem of determining the nonmonotone complexity of the implementation ofk-valued logic functions by logic circuits in bases consisting of all monotone (with respect to thestandard order) functions and finitely many nonmonotone functions is investigated. In calculatingthe complexity measure under examination only those elements of the circuit which are assignednonmonotone basis functions are taken into ...
