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.

Researchers Develop Methodology to Assess the Quality of Legal Representation in Criminal Proceedings
Having a good defence attorney in criminal proceedings can largely determine whether a defendant retains their freedom, health and good name. Researchers at HSE University propose a method for predicting an attorney’s performance based on the outcomes of their previous cases. The methodology takes into account the severity of the charges, the complexity of the cases, and the most likely outcome, drawing on judicial statistics.

Об одном биоинспирированном подходе к ориентации роботов, или настоящий «муравьиный» алгоритм

Управление большими системами: сборник трудов. 2022. № 96. С. 69–117.
Karpova I. P.

The paper describes a bioinspired method of mobile robots navigation, similar to the navigation mechanism of social insects. The model species is the red forest ant Formica rufa. The scout red forest ant remembers the route to food and can transmit information about the food location to foraging ants. Foragers can walk to the food on their own and return home. These ants are guided by the skylight compass, odometry data and visual landmarks. The proposed method is based on memorizing the path by visual landmarks, compass data and time component. A path is defined as a sequence of scenes consisting of landmarks. The scout route and forager route are defined as transitions from one landmark to another. The created behavior model of an animate (robot) operates only with relative categories. The results of simulation modeling for solving the foraging problem are presented. The method has been tested on real robots. Due to specific architectural and technical solutions, the transition from simulation models to the management of technical objects (robots) is carried out without the stage of physical modeling. The method can also be used in reconnaissance and patrol tasks in group robotics.

Hybrid Graph Retrieval-Augmented Language Agents for Collaborative Recommendation
Ivan Bulychev, Savchenko A., AI 2026 Vol. 7 No. 9 Article 380
Recent advances in large language model (LLM) agents have shown promise for autonomous decision-making in recommender systems. However, existing approaches suffer from two fundamental limitations: flat agent memories that conflate different information modalities and prohibitive computational costs that prevent scaling beyond a few hundred users. We propose Hybrid-GraphRAG, a recommender system that integrates hierarchical agent ...

Interpretable Lazy Classification with Interval Pattern Structures and Local Interval Explanations
Tomat A., Sergei O. Kuznetsov, International Journal of Approximate Reasoning 2026 Vol. 197 Article 109754
