After a Preface written by the Editors, there follow twelve papers submitted by theoretical physicists from Asia, Europe and the USA.
In this paper, we present a system for information extraction from scientific texts in the Russian language. The system performs several tasks in an end-to-end manner: term recognition, extraction of relations between terms, and term…
The main aim of translation is an accurate transfer of meaning so that the result is not only grammatically and lexically correct but also communicatively adequate. This paper stresses the need for discourse analysis the aim of which is to…
Wikipedia is an essential component of the open science ecosystem, yet it is poorly integrated with academic open science initiatives. Wikipedia Citations is a project that focuses on extracting and releasing comprehensive datasets of…
The paper presents first results of the CitEcCyr project funded by RANEPA. The project aims to create a source of open citation data for research papers written in Russian. Compared to existing sources of citation data, CitEcCyr is working…
This text was supposed to be included in the book "50 years of the renormalization group, Dedicated to the Memory of Michael E. Fisher", edited by A. Aharony, O. Entin-Wohlman, D. Huse and L. Radzihovsky, World Scientific, Singapore (2024).…
This article explores the feasibility of creating an "electronic copy" of a deceased researcher by training artificial intelligence (AI) on the data stored in their personal computers. By analyzing typical data volumes on inherited…
This is an English translation of six articles, originally written in Ukrainian, by the semigroup theorist Anton Kazimirovich Sushkevich (1889-1961). The articles date between 1935 and 1939, and were all written in Kharkiv. A preface is…
A brief remembrance of some aspects of the author's scientific interaction with Stephen Hawking. A contribution to Physics Today's March 14, 2018 web page in which Stephen Hawking is remembered by his colleagues.
This is a write-up of introductory remarks that I made at the UIC conference in honor of Lawrence Ein's 60th birthday. It presents an informal survey of some of Ein's work, interspersed with stories and reminiscences.
This editorial summarizes selected key contributions of Prof. Stephen Grossberg and describes the papers in this 80th birthday special issue in his honor. His productivity, creativity, and vision would each be enough to mark a scientist of…
We survey diverse approaches to the notion of information: from Shannon entropy to Kolmogorov complexity. Two of the main applications of Kolmogorov complexity are presented: randomness and classification. The survey is divided in two parts…
Today, transformer language models serve as a core component for majority of natural language processing tasks. Industrial application of such models requires minimization of computation time and memory footprint. Knowledge distillation is…
We discuss the photograph procured from the archives of the V. Stefanyk Lviv National Scientific Library of Ukraine dated by 1904 which shows Marian Smoluchowski together with professors and graduate students of the Philosophy department of…
Procedural Knowledge Libraries (PKLs) are frameworks for capturing the full arc of scientific inquiry, not just its outcomes. Whereas traditional libraries store static end products, PKLs preserve the process that leads to those results,…
This Liber Amicorum is a collection of essays ranging from personal memories to technical contributions. It is a tribute to Dave Schmidt and his career, and was composed at the occasion of his sixtieth birthday.
Machine intelligence is very successful at standard recognition tasks when having high-quality training data. There is still a significant gap between machine-level pattern recognition and human-level concept learning. Humans can learn…
Existing neural machine translation (NMT) models generally translate sentences in isolation, missing the opportunity to take advantage of document-level information. In this work, we propose to augment NMT models with a very light-weight…
We introduce KazParC, a parallel corpus designed for machine translation across Kazakh, English, Russian, and Turkish. The first and largest publicly available corpus of its kind, KazParC contains a collection of 371,902 parallel sentences…
Emotion-cause pair extraction (ECPE) is an emerging task in emotion cause analysis, which extracts potential emotion-cause pairs from an emotional document. Most recent studies use end-to-end methods to tackle the ECPE task. However, these…
