AI Users Earn Up to 41.8% More Than Non-Users
Research conducted by economists at HSE University has revealed a significant correlation between the regular use of GenAI in the workplace and higher pay among Russian employees. The study found that individuals who frequently use GenAI in their professional activities earn notably more than those who reject these new tools or resort to them occasionally. The salary premium for highly qualified specialists reaches 41.8%. The article was published in the Voprosy Ekonomiki journal.

Personal Interest in Doctoral Thesis Topic Most Important for Confidence in Successful Defence
A researcher at HSE University analysed data on 1,539 doctoral students from 161 Russian universities to identify which features of a thesis topic are associated with academic success and engagement. The most important factor was found to be personal interest in the research topic, which was associated with almost all key aspects of doctoral programme experience—from engaging with the academic supervisor to research activity and confidence about successfully defending the thesis. The findings have been published in Higher Education.

Image Recognition Using Kullback-Leibler Information Discrimination

P. 102–112.
Savchenko A.

The problem of automatic image recognition based on the minimum information discrimination principle is formulated and solved. Color histograms comparison in the Kullback–Leibler information metric is proposed. It’s combined with method of directed enumeration alternatives as opposed to complete enumeration of competing hypotheses. Results of an experimental study of the Kullback-Leibler discrimination in the problem of face recognition with a large database are presented. It is shown that the proposed algorithm is characterized by increased accuracy and reliability of image recognition.

Sequential analysis in Fourier probabilistic neural networks
Savchenko A., Belova N. S., Expert Systems with Applications 2022 Vol. 207 Article 117885
In this paper, the computational complexity of the probabilistic neural network for the classification of high-dimensional data is improved. At first, the class probability densities are estimated by using only a few principal components of an observed point. The Gaussian–Parzen kernel is replaced by the orthogonal series estimates of class-conditional densities for each principal component using the Fourier series to speed ...

A novel image recognition algorithm based on sequential three-way decisions is introduced to speed up the inference in a convolutional neural network. In contrast to the majority of existing studies, our approach does not require a special procedure to train a neural network, and thus it can be used with arbitrary architectures including pre-trained convolutional ...
