International conflicts, crises and digital overload—the modern world puts our minds to the test every day. Traditional psychology often focuses on the consequences: anxiety, depression, and psychosomatic disorders. But what if we looked at the problem differently—through the lens of the resources that prevent us from breaking down? Psychological immunity is precisely this set of resources. Alena Zolotareva and her group, Psychological Immunity as a Resource for Positive Functioning, are developing an integrative model of this phenomenon, adapting diagnostic tools and preparing for large-scale empirical research. Why do psychologists need to collaborate with medical professionals, and how could their research transform preventive care in clinics and corporations?
A researcher at HSE University has proposed a flowchart to help lecturers decide how to assess students who use artificial intelligence. It shows where the use of AI should be restricted and where it can be incorporated into the learning process. The article has been published in IT Professional.
You cannot study spoken dialects from books. Instead, you need to go to a village, seek out its elders, and earn the trust of local residents before you can record hours of spontaneous stories. This is how Natalia Muravleva, Associate Professor at the Faculty of Humanities, conducts her research. Her internship in Serbia continued her long-standing study of dialects spoken by Macedonian settlers. In this interview, she discusses how diaspora cultural centres help researchers reach informants, why native speakers need to be interviewed only in their own language (otherwise, as she puts it, they may 'break'), and how a single field season helped her finalise her monograph. She also shares warm memories of autumn in Belgrade and of colleagues with whom grammar can be discussed in three languages at once.

The article discusses the data transmission using convolutional codes over channels where the noise process can be described by a Markov chain with two states: a simple binary Markov channel and the Gilbert channel. Using the classical Viterbi algorithm with the Hamming metric for these channels does not guarantee low error probabilities. Additionally, the use ...

Unlike most papers devoted to improvements of code-based cryptosystem, where original Goppa codes are substituted by some other codes, we suggest a new method of strengthening which is code-independent. We show (up to some limit) that the security of the new code-based cryptosystem is much closer to the hardness of maximum likelihood decoding than in the ...

An algorithm for generating parity-check matrices of regular low-density paritycheck codes based on permutation matrices and Steiner triple systems S(v, 3, 2), v = 2m − 1, is proposed. Estimations of the rate, minimum distance, and girth for obtained code constructions are presented. Results of simulation of the obtained code constructions for an iterative “belief propagation” (Sum-Product) decoding algorithm ...
