Abstract: During the last decades scientometric techniques have been used for research activity stimulation. Number of published articles and number of their citation counts are among the most important scientometric parameters. In an automated environment, when the publications metadata is gathered from various sources, correct linking of original papers with their translations into different languages is extremely important. In the paper we show that the known text similarity measures are inefficient in the context of article linkage problem. We propose a method for semi-automatic article linkage using statistical data on authors publication activities only. This approach may be used for linking articles without training for the language of translation. The method was evaluated on real-world collection of publications metadata of ISTINA information system.

Abstract: This article analyzes the development trends of processing Big Data tools and multi-format data storage and analysis. This analysis was carried out as part of our program of basic research of the Department of Mathematical Sciences, Russian Academy of Sciences “Algebraic and Combinatorial Methods of Mathematical Cybernetics and information systems of the new generation", as well as RFBR grant number 14-07-00783 “Way to store and process a large volume of scientific and reference data modern hardware platforms”.

Abstract: This work is devoted to the description of the project of updating the technology of algorithmic language application created in the USSR in the 60s of the XX century by V. F. Turchin. The language was originally intended for various logical transformations primarily of text material. In practice, the scope was wider: machine translation, optimization and compilation of programs, proof of theorems, modeling of complex electronic circuits, solving a number of problems of artificial intelligence. The language now has a sufficient number of followers, mainly in scientific circles.The objective of the described project is to create a product that allows the use of Refal in modern mass applications and to expand the range of its potential users to the entire Internet. A survey of the community of users and developers of Refal was conducted in order to get an idea of the current state of Affairs, current implementations and ways of language development. Possible means of project implementation were considered. No information was received on similar developments under way.

Abstract: The translation of the school system of knowledge into a formal language to create an ontology of school educational mathematics showed that there are gaps indicating significant shortcomings in the design of the contents of the geometry course. A study among students of N.I. Lobachevsky Institute of mathematics and mechanics of KFU to determine the quality of understanding of generic concepts, graphic representations of geometric figures, the results of which showed the relationship between the problems in the presentation of the content of the school course of Plane geometry and the quality of students' knowledge.
