The Application of Machine Learning for Creating a Typology of Universities' Financial Models
This study presents an application of machine learning for creating a typology of Russian universities’ financial models. Large-scale national initiatives aimed at enhancing human potential and academic excellence, such as Project 5-100, university-industry consortia, world class research center programs as well as the Priority-2030 program, require relevant financial and management accounting tools enabling appropriate analyses of universities’ contribution to national scientific policy implementation. However, when conventional financial analysis and audit techniques are adopted from the corporate sector, they may prove to be irrelevant for assessing the societal impacts of universities. Existing impact study methods, such as those applied in the Russell Group universities’ impact assessment, are expensive and time consuming, so promising machine learning techniques and existing open data from government information systems were used in this study to assess universities’ financial models
Flame front propagation IV: Random Noise and Pole-Dynamics in Unstable Front Propagation II
The current paper is a corrected version of our previous paper
arXiv:adap-org/9608001. Similarly to previous version we investigate the
problem of flame propagation. This problem is studied as an example of unstable
fronts that wrinkle on many scales. The analytic tool of pole expansion in the
complex plane is employed to address the interaction of the unstable growth
process with random initial conditions and perturbations. We argue that the
effect of random noise is immense and that it can never be neglected in
sufficiently large systems. We present simulations that lead to scaling laws
for the velocity and acceleration of the front as a function of the system size
and the level of noise, and analytic arguments that explain these results in
terms of the noisy pole dynamics.This version corrects some very critical
errors made in arXiv:adap-org/9608001 and makes more detailed description of
excess number of poles in system, number of poles that appear in the system in
unit of time, life time of pole. It allows us to understand more correctly
dependence of the system parameters on noise than in arXiv:adap-org/9608001Comment: 23 pages, 4 figures,revised, version accepted for publication in

Extended Emission from Short Gamma-Ray Bursts Detected with SPI-ACS/INTEGRAL
The short duration (T90 < 2 s) gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) detected in the
SPI-ACS experiment onboard the INTEGRAL observatory are investigated. Averaged
light curves have been constructed for various groups of events, including
short GRBs and unidentified short events. Extended emission has been found in
the averaged light curves of both short GRBs and unidentified short events. It
is shown that the fraction of the short GRBs in the total number of SPI-ACS
GRBs can range from 30 to 45%, which is considerably larger than has been
thought previously.Comment: 27 pages, 10 figure
