A statistical analysis of the multimodal ENERGI (ENgagement and Emotion Russian Gathering Interlocutors) data corpus containing audio-video recordings of communication in Russian by a group of people obtained using the Zoom teleconference system has been performed. The corpus data is annotated into three classes: participant engagement (high, medium, low), emotional arousal (high, medium, low), and emotional valence (positive, neutral, negative), as well as ten classes of communicative gestures. The corpus contains 6.4 hours of video recordings of group communications, with a total of 18 unique speakers; the data is annotated using 10-second time intervals. ENERGI’s advantages over other corpora include its multimodality, Russian language support, speaker diversity, natural recording conditions, and extensive annotation across several behavioral parameters of communication participants. The corpus can be used to develop a multimodal automated system for analyzing the behavioral aspects of participants in virtual group communications.

The basics of building automated information systems (IAS) for integrated modeling of complex distributed natural objects in solving problems of integral assessment of forest ecosystems stability are considered. When creating such systems, it is proposed to use the basic principles of the qualimetry of models and polymodel complexes. This approach allows to find ways to solve the main problems of complex modeling in the integrated assessment of sustainability: determining the required composition of partial models for calculating individual indicators; selection and adaptation of models, taking into account the necessary composition of the source data; formation of algorithms for calculating integral indicators. A comparative analysis shows that it is advisable to use container management systems in combination with elements of a multiservice architecture as the technological basis of IAS. An architecture of the integrated modeling IAS is proposed, which includes components for obtaining integral estimates using multicriteria analysis algorithms, calculation modules for private indicators, components for obtaining and analyzing the necessary heterogeneous source data, including ground data and remote sensing data, as well as means for orchestrating and ensuring the coordinated functioning of the IAS. The use of the proposed architecture makes it possible to perform modeling within a single distributed, scalable information and computing environment.

The problem of synthesizing reactive, time-optimal control for quadcopters is aggravated by their multifaceted, underactuated dynamics and the complexity of solving boundary-value problems in real time. This work addresses these challenges, presenting a reinforcement learning framework that learns to autonomously navigate in collision-free environments with optimal waypoint-reaching policies. Our contributions include a cascaded actor architecture inspired by position-velocity separation in classical control to improve flight stability and smooth actions, as well as a composite reward function incorporating radial velocity and acceleration components, promoting maximal progress toward targets and steering the agent toward bang-bang-like maneuvers. Quantitative comparisons prove that our agent achieves smooth control actions, leading to optimal trajectories that adhere tightly with minimal deviations to the desired path.

This paper proposes new methods for multi-agent formation control during coordinated following of straight and circular paths. The dynamics of the agents are described using a nonholonomic model, which is a universal approach suitable for a wide range of robotic platforms. The task of the agents is to follow given straight and circular paths while simultaneously maintaining a desired geometric formation. A formation control algorithm based on the leader–follower strategy is developed, ensuring coordinated agent motion and preservation of the specified formation. In addition, a fully distributed control algorithm is proposed, which does not require a leader and relies solely on local information from neighboring agents. For each algorithm, the stability of the desired formation is analyzed. The effectiveness of the proposed algorithms is validated through numerical simulations in MatLab.

The representation of dynamical systems in the form of bond graphs, which make it possible to unify a modular approach to modeling multi-domain physical systems described by laws from various fields of physics, such as mechanics and hydraulics, is considered. Based on multiconnected or vector bond graphs, a library of mechatronic system elements, which accelerates the process of building models and reduces the likelihood of errors, is been developed in Matlab- Simulink environment. The structure of the developed library and its main elements, which make it possible to describe systems of several bodies and simulate their motion in various reference frames, are discussed. An example of using the library for modeling a specific mechanical system is given.

Experimental results of a study of the effect of ionizing radiation with different dose rates on fiber-optic systems using fibers with a germanosilicate core (GeO2) and an undoped pure silica core (SiO2) are presented. A mathematical approximation of the experimental curves for the growth of radiation-induced optical losses in the fiber is performed using a modified power-law equation that includes the contribution of the ionizing radiation dose rate. A correlation between the values of empirical coefficients and the dose rate of ionizing radiation is experimentally established. A natural logarithmic function equation is proposed for describing the dependence of the empirical coefficients defining the shape of the radiation-induced loss growth curve on the dose rate. An approach to reconstructing the radiation-induced loss growth curve using equations for the dependence of the empirical approximation coefficients on the dose rate is proposed; this technique enables predicting the radiation response of the optical fiber under new conditions without experimental setup. The method demonstrates applicability for single-mode fibers with silica and germanosilicate fiber cores of different designs. Based on the described approach, a methodology is developed for determining correlation equations for empirical coefficients.
