Determining human emotions from speech is a pressing task at the moment, because it can be applied in various industries, such as economics, medicine, marketing, security and education. This work examines the recognition of human emotions specifically from speech, because speech is an informative indicator that is quite difficult to fake. The paper discusses a neural network approach to solving the problem. A recurrent neural network with LSTM memory was implemented, and our own dataset was collected on which the model was trained. The dataset includes the speech of Russian-speaking actors, which will improve the quality of the model for Russian-speaking users.

The article presents a mathematical model for assessing the applicability of intelligent chatbots in the context of studying dialects of foreign languages. The model is based on the analysis of key parameters and characteristics of chatbots, as well as their ability to adapt to various dialects. The model's parameters include questions, answers, evaluation criteria, types, and costs of errors. The quality of the chatbot's responses is evaluated both according to individual criteria and overall. To test the effectiveness of the proposed method, an experimental study was conducted using the dialects of the German language as examples. During the research, such intelligent chatbots as ChatGPT-3.5, GPT-4, YouChat, Bard, DeepSeek, and Chatsonic were evaluated. The analysis of the results of applying the developed mathematical model showed that at present, the models by OpenAI (ChatGPT-3.5 and GPT-4) offer the broadest range of possibilities. ChatGPT-3.5 demonstrated the best results in communication in Bavarian and Austrian dialects, while YouChat excelled in the Swiss dialect. The obtained results allow for important practical recommendations to be made for selecting intelligent chatbots in the field of studying dialects of foreign languages and serve as a basis for further research in the area of evaluating the effectiveness of educational technologies based on artificial intelligence.

Fuel efficiency of dump trucks is affected by real world variables such as vehicle parameters, road conditions, weather parameters, and driver behavior. Predicting fuel consumption per trip using dynamic road condition data can effectively reduce the cost and time associated with on-road testing. This paper proposes new models for predicting fuel consumption of dump trucks in surface mining operations. The models combine locally collected data from dump truck sensors and analyze it to enhance their capabilities. The architectural design consists of two distinct parts, initially based on dual Long-term Short-Term Memories (LSTMs) and dual dense layers of Deep Neural Networks (DNNs). The new hybrid architecture improves the performance of the proposed model compared to other models, especially in terms of accuracy measurement. The MAE, RMSE, MSE and R2 scores indicate high prediction accuracy.

The paper considers the opportunities and obstacles to the integration of renewable energy sources (RES) in megacities on the example of Moscow. The paper analyzes the applied RES-based generation technologies, taking into account their applicability in large cities. Special attention was paid to the conversion of unused historical dams into small hydroelectric power plants (SHPP) as an integration of RES in megacities. Based on the results of the technical and economic analysis, it was found that the conversion of an unused dam on the Yauza River into a SHPP is justified.

One of the actual problems in the field of analysing loads and impacts on bearing structures is their identification. It means the point of application, the type of action and its intensity in cases where there is an impact result, but the parameters that caused this result are not determined. For example, it is an accident action, as a result of which the structure is deformed and collapsed. The solution of such problems arises when analysing accidents on load-bearing structures in construction, as well as when monitoring the deformed state of structures in time. The paper proposes to use the principles of neural network modelling to solve the problem of identifying the impact in the form of a concentrated force on the example of beam systems. The values of linear and angular nodal displacements at some action are considered as input data to neurons. As an example, the linearly deformable beam of constant stiffness is considered, the material of which is a continuous isotropic medium.

The safety of hazardous production facilities is directly related to the reliable operation of pipeline systems, as a failure occurring in the elements of such systems can lead to serious consequences for production facilities and the environment. Since the greatest number of failures is associated with faults caused by corrosion, to increase reliability it is necessary to increase the corrosion resistance of metal of pipeline elements. The article gives an overview of materials for manufacturing parts, the influence of different climatic conditions on the mechanical properties of steels. The developed rotary gate designed for automatic prevention of reverse flow of working medium is also presented. To confirm the serviceability of the design, strength calculation of the structure was carried out, where its stress-strain state under the given loading conditions is considered. As a result, the values of maximum equivalent stresses, maximum deformations and displacements were obtained, which are lower than the maximum permissible ones.
