This paper investigates the effectiveness of the distance fields method for building 3D graphics in comparison with the traditional polygonal approach. The main attention is paid to the use of analytical representation of models, which allows to determine the shortest distance to the objects of the scene and provides high speed even on weak hardware. Comparative analysis is made on the possibility of wide model detailing, applicability of different lighting sources, reflection mapping and model transformation. Conclusions are drawn about the promising potential of the distance field method for 3D graphics, especially in real-time rendering systems. It is also emphasized that further research and development in this area is relevant. Within the framework of this work, a universal software implementation of the distance fields method was realized.

The growing popularity of large language models in various fields of scientific and industrial activity leads to the emergence of solutions using these technologies for completely different tasks. This article suggests using the BERT, GPT, and GPT-2 language models to detect malicious code. The neural network model, previously trained on natural texts, is further trained on a preprocessed dataset containing program files with malicious and harmless code. The preprocessing of the dataset consists in the fact that program files in the form of machine instructions are translated into a textual description in a formalized language. The model trained in this way is used for the task of classifying software based on the indication of the content of malicious code in it. The article provides information about the conducted experiment on the use of the proposed model. The quality of this approach is evaluated in comparison with existing antivirus technologies. Ways to improve the characteristics of the model are also suggested.

The article is devoted to the development of a new mathematical method for modeling radial plain bearings having a polymer coating with an axial groove on the bearing surface. For the calculation evaluation of technical solutions for wear resistance, the compressibility of a truly viscous lubricant under laminar flow conditions is taken into account. As a result, new mathematical models were obtained that make it possible to estimate the duration of the hydrodynamic flow regime of the lubricant, to prove the stability and possibility of changing lubrication modes from boundary to hydrodynamic, as well as to make a calculated assessment of the effect of compressibility of the lubricant and wear resistance on operational characteristics.

Eye tracking (oculography) is a technology that allows recording the direction of human gaze on a visual stimulus. It’s application can provide researchers with valuable data on which elements of the environment are most attractive in various contexts, in areas such as marketing, psychology, etc. The aim of this work is to identify the pattern of human attention distribution on visual stimulus objects of different sizes using eye tracking technology. A webcam was used to record the subjects’ gaze movements while they were studying experimental images. The results of the experiments showed that larger objects in visual stimuli receive higher attention priority than smaller objects. This observation is true for both human-created works and images created by artificial intelligence (Kandinsky 3.1 is used in this study). The obtained results of the study will improve our understanding of how people perceive visual information, which can contribute to the creation of more effective approaches to interface development.

The wear resistance of friction units with a polymer coating and a special groove in their supporting structure is increased by minimizing the heating of the contact zone of the rubbing surfaces through effective heat removal due to the presence of a transverse recess (groove). In addition, this design helps to minimize the dry friction process, since it directly affects the distribution of the lubricating fluid. Increased loads of friction units entail characteristic changes in the properties of lubricants. In our opinion, taking into account the viscosity indicators, depending on temperature and pressure, will allow us to more accurately characterize the operation of the structure in various friction modes. The effect of a modified friction unit design (with a polymer coating and a groove) on improving performance in general is described. In addition, comparing the standard and modified designs, it can be noted that the load capacity has significantly increased and the friction coefficient has decreased. At the same time, the service life and the overhaul period of the friction unit have increased, which is a significant effect for the mechanical engineering industry.

The problem of increasing consumption of heat and energy resources in the high-rise residential sector in the conditions of dense urban development becomes more relevant every year both for its population and for management companies.

The paper investigates the possibility of obtaining a luminescent material by heat treatment of phosphogypsum at a temperature of 800 degrees Celsius. It is shown that it is not enough to achieve the result of heating the system to a given temperature, the luminosity of the samples is practically absent.For phosphogypsum subjected to heat treatment at a temperature of 800 degrees Celsius for 60 minutes, it was found that images obtained in the presence of 50-150% moles of citric acid showed the most pronounced luminosity. The luminosity of samples with starch in the amount of 50-75 mol% was worse (by about 50%). The use of coal as a reducing agent under given conditions led to the formation of samples with the lowest luminosity. An extreme change in the dependence of luminosity on the amount of the introduced reducing agent with maxima of 25-75% (mol.) was revealed. It is suggested that the luminescent ability of the reduced phosphogypsum is associated with the formation of the composite material calcium sulfate/sulfide.

This paper considers the development and training of a neural network model for the identification of the species and quantitative composition of pollen, which will subsequently be used to determine the botanical origin of honey and quantitative calculations of pollen grains contained in a certain mass of honey. The main purpose of the study is to create a model that can effectively distinguish the morphology of pollen grains present in honey, determine their quantitative and qualitative composition, which will improve product quality control, as well as identify its botanical and geographical origin. For this purpose, similar works on pollen classification were analyzed. Pwtorch was chosen as the framework for creating a neural network model, which provides the possibility of detailed configuration of the model. The result of the work is a trained model capable of classifying pollen grains.
