Scientists Develop Algorithm for More Reliable Processors in Data Centres
Researchers from HSE MIEM and Samara University have developed the LRF-3D algorithm to automatically bypass idle nodes in three-dimensional networks-on-chip. Thanks to its hierarchical architecture, the algorithm outperforms existing solutions in both speed and path accuracy, improving processor reliability for use in data centres, supercomputers, and AI computing. The source code and test results are publicly available.

Researchers Develop Method for Direct Generation of Regulatory DNA
Researchers at HSE University have developed a model for generating promoters and enhancers—DNA sequences that regulate gene activity. The model works directly with DNA nucleotides, without first transforming them into a continuous numerical representation. This solution could be useful for applications in synthetic biology and gene therapy. The study results were presented at the ICLR 2026 Workshop ‘Generative AI in Genomics (Gen^2): Barriers and Frontiers.’

Cognitive load measurement during navigation and information retrieval in digital text

Procedia Computer Science. 2021. Vol. 192. P. 2720–2730.
Ledneva T., Kovalev A.

Interaction with digital text permeates practically all types of educational, professional and leisure activities of modern life. The effective working with digital instructions and materials determines the success in solving a number of real problems. At the same time, the negative impact of overly complex digital environments on learning outcomes, work efficiency, and subjective well-being has been proven in numerous empirical studies. In this work, an attempt is made to study the navigational characteristics of a digital text that are significant for solving practical problems from the standpoint of the Cognitive Load Theory. A total of 20 subjects (13F; 7M) took part in the experiment with intra-individual plan and 2x2 factorial design. Information retrieval was considered as a task, and the navigation characteristics of the text were varied under controlled experimental conditions in order to determine the optimal combination of navigational cues. Digital text environments with different navigation characteristics were designed. The indicators of oculomotor activity and performance data were analysed to determine the conditions causing the greatest excess cognitive load. A computational approach was applied to assess the relative effectiveness of conditions. It was found that information search in digital environments with less navigational cues provoke increase in scan-path complexity, searching time and number of fixations. These observations support the general hypothesis of this study, according to which a lack of navigation cues affect directly on the cognitive load growth during information search in digital texts.

Discrete Markowitz Portfolio Optimization with Open-Source Classical and Quantum-Inspired Solvers: A Cross-Market Walk-Forward Study
Avdoshin S.M., Patrushev K. A., Proceedings of the Institute for System Programming of the RAS 2026 No. 4 часть 2 P. 245–256
The cardinality-constrained Markowitz problem is NP-hard and traditionally solved with commercial MIQP solvers. Following the 2022 export restrictions that rendered both commercial MIQP software and cloud quantum platforms (IBM Quantum, D-Wave Leap) inaccessible from the Russian Federation, practitioners require open-source alternatives. This paper systematically compares three solver families for the discrete mean-variance problem: two open-source ...

Benchmarking Synolitic Graphs for Autism Classification from Multisite Resting-State fMRI
Zaikin A., Vlasenko D., Zakharov D. et al., Diagnostics 2026 Vol. 16 No. 17 P. 1–15
Background/Objectives: Synolitic graphs (SGs) were developed for task-based fMRI, where edge weights encode the discriminative power of pairwise regional features; whether similar information can be recovered from resting-state data was untested. We benchmarked SGs for autism spectrum disorder (ASD) classification using the multisite ABIDE-I dataset (871 subjects: 403 subjects with ASD, 468 typical controls; 17 sites; CC200 atlas).

MM-PSYCHE: Multimodal Multitask Psychological Characteristic Estimation Through Cross-Domain Semi-Supervised Learning
Ryumina E., Aksenov A., Koryakovskaya D. et al., IEEE Access 2026 Vol. 14 P. 124759–124778
Psychological characteristic estimation from multimodal in-the-wild behavior is usually studied using separate corpora, each annotated for a single target task. Such annotation fragmentation limits cross-task learning and cross-domain generalization across affective, dispositional, and interactional phenomena. To address this problem, we use emotion, apparent personality trait, and ambivalence recognition as representative tasks and introduce MM-PSYCHE, a ...

Hypergraphs from multivariate connectivity: caCOH-based EEG/MEG representation
Vlasenko D., Saranskaia I., Zakharov D., European Physical Journal: Special Topics 2026 P. 1–16
Hypergraphs provide a natural framework for representing neurophysiological interactions distributed across sets of sensors. A key methodological question is how hyperedges should be defined from frequency-resolved electroencephalography/magnetoencephalography (EEG/MEG) data. We demonstrate a construction strategy in which hyperedges are obtained from canonical coherence (caCOH), an extension of coherence that estimates coupling between multidimensional signal spaces. To ...

Cognitive engagement and video watching behaviours in learner-controlled environments: A cognitive load perspective
Gorbunova A., Getman A., Savelyev A. et al., Innovations in Education and Teaching International 2026 P. 1–13
Research on video-based learning often relies on behavioural indicators to infer engagement, yet it remains unclear whether these behaviours reflect meaningful cognitive engagement or mere activity. To address this gap the present study analysed relationships between time-on-video, click frequency, playback speed manipulation, and learners’ intrinsic, extraneous, and germane cognitive load in a learner-controlled video environment ...

Cognitive flexibility (CF) allows individuals to adapt their behavior to changing environmental demands. As task complexity increases, CF may substantially impact performance by facilitating a shift towards more efficient information processing strategies. However, its role in tasks with high cognitive demands remains largely unexplored. Furthermore, while CF is associated with inhibitory control and working memory ...

Cognitive load theory describes the mechanisms for the transfer of information from human working memory to long-term memory. This theory posits that increasing the number of interactive elements, such as interconnections, may increase cognitive load. This study investigates the impact of interconnections in concept maps on cognitive load, exploring whether they act as interactive elements ...
