This paper presents new research results that have been conducted at the Institute of Economics of the Russian Academy of Sciences since 2011 under the leadership of Academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences V. I.Mayevsky. These works are aimed at developing the theory of switching mode of reproduction and corresponding mathematical models, the peculiarity of which is that they explicitly model the interaction of the financial and real sectors of the economy, and the country’s economy itself is not disaggregated according to the sectoral principle (engineering, agriculture, services, etc.), but by production subsystems that differ from each other by the age of the fixed capital. One of the mathematical difficulties of working with such models, called models of switching mode of reproduction (SMR), is the difficulty of modeling competitive relationships between subsystems of different “ages”. Therefore, until now, the interaction of a finite number of production subsystems has been considered in the SMR models, the models themselves were of a discrete-continuous nature, calculations were done exclusively on computers, and obtaining analytical dependencies was difficult. This paper shows that for the special case of balanced economic growth and a continuum of production subsystems, it is possible to obtain analytical expressions that allow a better understanding of the impact of monetary policy on economic dynamics. In addition to purely scientific interest, this is of great practical importance, since it allows us to assess the possible reaction of the real sector of the economy to changes in the monetary sphere without conducting complex simulation calculations.

The advent of laser scanning technologies has revolutionized forestry. Their use made it possible to switch from studying woodlands using manual measurements to computer analysis of stereo point images called point clouds.

Automatic calculation of some tree parameters (such as trunk diameter) using a point cloud requires the removal of foliage points. To perform this operation, a preliminary segmentation of the stereo image into the “foliage” and “trunk” classes is required. The solution to this problem often involves the use of machine learning methods.

One of the most popular classifiers used for segmentation of stereo images of trees is a random forest. This classifier is quite demanding on the amount of memory. At the same time, the size of the machine learning model can be critical if it needs to be sent by wire, which is required, for example, when performing distributed learning. In this paper, the goal is to find a classifier that would be less demanding in terms of memory, but at the same time would have comparable segmentation accuracy. The search is performed among classifiers such as logistic regression, naive Bayes classifier, and decision tree. In addition, a method for segmentation refinement performed by a decision tree using logistic regression is being investigated.

The experiments were conducted on data from the collection of the University of Heidelberg. The collection contains hand-marked stereo images of trees of various species, both coniferous and deciduous, typical of the forests of Central Europe.

It has been shown that classification using a decision tree, adjusted using logistic regression, is able to produce a result that is only slightly inferior to the result of a random forest in accuracy, while spending less time and RAM. The difference in balanced accuracy is no more than one percent on all the clouds considered, while the total size and inference time of the decision tree and logistic regression classifiers is an order of magnitude smaller than of the random forest classifier.

An analytical solution is obtained for seismic wave fields in a spherically symmetric Earth. In the case of an arbitrary layered medium, the solution, which includes Bessel functions, is constructed by means of a differential sweep method. Asymptotic of Bessel functions is used for stable calculation of wave fields. It is shown that the classical asymptotic in the case of a sphere of large (in wavelengths) dimensions gives an error in the solution. The new asymptotic is used for efficient calculation of a solution without errors with high detail. A program has been created that makes it possible to carry out calculations for high-frequency (1 hertz and higher) teleseismic wave fields in a discrete (layered) sphere of planetary dimensions. Calculations can be carried even out on personal computers with OpenMP parallelization.

In the works of Burmin (2019) proposed a spherically symmetric model of the Earth. It is characterized by the fact that in it the outer core has a viscosity and, therefore, an effective shear modulus other than zero. For this model of the Earth, a highly detailed calculation was carried out with a carrier frequency of 1 hertz. As a result of the analytical calculation, it was found that highfrequency oscillations of small amplitude, the so-called “precursors”, appear ahead of the PKP waves. An analytical calculation showed that the theoretical seismograms for this model of the Earth are in many respects similar to the experimental data. This confirms the correctness of the ideas underlying its construction.

The article presents a technology for building clinical decision support systems (CDSS) based on service containers using Docker and a web interface that runs directly in the browser without installing specialized software on workstation of a clinician. A modular architecture is proposed in which each application module is packaged as an independent service container combining a lightweight web server, a user interface, and computational components for medical image processing. Communication between the browser and the server side is implemented via a persistent bidirectional WebSocket connection with binary message serialization (MessagePack), which provides low latency and efficient transfer of large data. For local storage of images and analysis of results, browser facilities (IndexedDB with the Dexie.js wrapper) are used to speed up repeated data access. Three-dimensional visualization and basic operations with DICOM data are implemented with Three.js and AMI.js: this toolchain supports the integration of interactive elements arising from the task context (annotations, landmarks, markers, 3D models) into volumetric medical images.

Server components and functional modules are assembled as a set of interacting containers managed by Docker. The paper discusses the choice of base images, approaches to minimizing containers down to runtime-only executables without external utilities, and the organization of multi-stage builds with a dedicated build container. It describes a hub service that launches application containers on user request, performs request proxying, manages sessions, and switches a container from shared to exclusive mode at the start of computations. Examples of application modules are provided (fractional flow reserve estimation, quantitative flow ratio computation, aortic valve closure modeling), along with the integration of a React-based interface with a three-dimensional scene, a versioning policy, automated reproducibility checks, and the deployment procedure on the target platform.

It is demonstrated that containerization ensures portability and reproducibility of the software environment, dependency isolation and scalability, while the browser-based interface provides accessibility, reduced infrastructure requirements, and interactive real-time visualization of medical data. Technical limitations are noted (dependence on versions of visualization libraries and data formats) together with practical mitigation measures.

Aberrant alternative splicing of the CD44 gene drives colorectal cancer progression and facilitates the emergence of cancer stem cells. Although biomedical research recognizes this transmembrane glycoprotein as a major catalyst of malignancy, deciphering its multi-isoform regulatory networks remains a complex analytical challenge. To address this knowledge gap, this study presents a machine learning framework designed to decode these biological mechanisms. The author constructed a neural network regressor based on beta regression to model bounded isoform proportions. This computational architecture jointly estimates both the mean and the precision parameters of the underlying probability distribution. Furthermore, the system employs elastic net regularization to perform quantitative feature selection from highdimensional molecular expression data.

The investigation evaluates the proposed framework using gene expression profiles from colorectal cancer patients. The primary objective involves identifying specific ribonucleic acid-binding proteins acting as regulatory splicing factors. The experimental design contrasts two distinct mathematical modeling strategies. The first configuration incorporates an independent ”one-vs-all” approach that treats each transcript variant as an isolated regression target. The second formulation utilizes a structured ”isoform tree” method that directly mirrors hierarchical exon inclusion relationships. Validation experiments on synthetically generated datasets confirmed the mathematical integrity of the network. The model recovered true distribution parameters with precision and exhibited no systematic bias. Comprehensive empirical comparisons subsequently demonstrated that the independent ”one-vs-all” layout consistently outperforms the hierarchical tree configuration in predictive stability and accuracy.

The computational analysis maps the regulatory landscape of the CD44 gene. The framework validates several established splicing factors while uncovering new candidate proteins, including ACO1, NUDT21, and AGO2. Based on these statistical associations, the paper introduces a biological hypothesis. This concept functionally connects intracellular iron metabolism via the ACO1 protein with the shifting balance of CD44 variants. These discoveries provide deeper insights into oncogenic splicing regulation. Ultimately, they highlight molecular targets for future therapeutic interventions aimed at suppressing the cancer stem cell phenotype.

Kinetics of complex formation between components of the photosynthetic electron transport chain — flavodoxin and membrane complex photosystem I has been studied using computer model based on methods of multiparticle simulation and Brownian dynamics. We simulated Brownian motion of several hundreds of flavodoxin molecules, taking into account electrostatic interactions and complex shape of the molecules. Our model could describe experimental nonmonotonic dependence of the association rate constant for flavodoxin and photosystem I. This lets us conclude that electrostatic interactions are sufficient to form such kind of nonmonotonic dependence.
