AbstractOne of the characteristic features of the modern world is the dynamics of demographic changes. Depending on their nature and intensity, they can be a driving force behind socio-economic development or doom it to stagnation or regression. There is no doubt, however, that a declining demographic potential, especially unfavourable changes in the age structure of the population (an ageing society), may contribute to economic difficulties in the given area, often leading to social problems. The aim of the research the results of which are presented in this article was to analyse regional differences in the age structure of Poland’s population in two time intervals, viz. the years 1999 and 2010, using multivariate techniques, and more specifically, principal components analysis and cluster analysis. They both make it possible to accommodate many features of the population age structure simultaneously, thus better illustrating the two situations (the years 1999 and 2010) and changes that took place in between, than univariate approaches

The article deals with a special analysis of a random vibration signal received from working process. In principle, only time intervals between random phenomena whose summit values exceed the given limit are measured. Theoretically, phenomena stochastic distribution approximates to exponential distribution. The chart analysis of real distribution reveals characteristic features which help to recognize various technical states.

This paper addresses the viability of two multivariate methods (Principal Components Analysis and Cluster Analysis) in verifying the disputed authorship of a famous Arabic religious book called (Nahjul-Balagha/ Peak of Eloquence). This book occupies an exceptional position in the history of the huge debates held between the two basic Islamic sectors: Sunni'e and Shia. Therefore, it represents a serious challenge to the viability of the multivariate techniques in resolving certain types of historical and sectarian conflicts and controversies. Furthermore, verifying the authorship of this book could be a good opportunity to find out whether there are certain quantitative techniques of attribution that hold for different languages such as English and Arabic. Function words have been targeted in this paper as possible indicators of the author's identity. Accordingly, a set of Arabic function words would be tested using WordSmith Tools (version 5). It turned out that the multivariate techniques are most likely robust for addressing the type of issues raised about Nahjul- Balagha. Besides, it appeared that the statistical patterns of function word usages are quite sensitive to genre in Arabic.

The article is devoted to the features of female types in the tragedies of one of significant playwrights of the XX century Guseyn Javid. In the given article, they analyse and compare the characteristic features and behavior of the female figures of the author’s such literaryworks as «Mother»(Selma, Ismet), «Maral»(Maral, Humay), «Afet»(Afet, Alagoz), «Siyavush»(Farangiz, Sudaba). The basis of the article lies in the creative works of G.Javid, where special attention is attracted by several types of female characters, among which the types of a traditional eastern woman are most brightly represented

The purpose of the study is to analyze the specifics of constructing the image of political parties in modern world media discourse practices. Achievement of this goal by the authors of this article determines the formulation of a number of important tasks, for the solution of which, first of all, the study of the image-making of political organizations is carried out, which is of interest to representatives of various worldview and social groups. The article examines the algorithm for constructing the image of parties and party coalitions, identifies the factors influencing their modifications. The authors determine the most effective strategies and tactics that influence the formation of a positive image during the electoral process, conduct a detailed analysis of the communication tools that generate a highly effective image of political parties using both traditional media practitioners and modern Internet agrigers. The work analyzes the main and auxiliary resources that have a multifaceted impact on the collaboration of party forces and their leaders with the media in the process of creating the given images, and broadcasting information to the target audience. As a result, a conclusion is made about the discursiveness of the image-making technologies existing in the media space, the presence of convergences and antinomies in them.

A huge corpus of valuable information on customer experience is available as unstructured form in customer reviews on e-commerce websites. Multivariate data analysis techniques are effective in uncovering hidden patterns and segments in structured data. A major challenge is to convert the unstructured data into a structured form for applying multivariate techniques. In this article, we have provided a text analysis based approach coupled with multivariate techniques to uncover the sentiment of various features associated with different brands and to determine the brand positions and segments through perceptual mapping and cluster analysis.

В статье анализируются новейшие процессы цифровизации в аспекте цифровой институциализации, охватывающей различные уровни современной мировой экономики - от глобального до национального. Цель статьи - на основе анализа практики внедрения цифровой институциализации на различных уровнях выявить их особенности и соответствие современным требованиям развития мировой экономики и системы международных финансов. Научная новизна исследования заключается, во-первых, в рассмотрении недостаточно изученного в экономической литературе направления (цифровой институциализации), во-вторых, в анализе и выявлении закономерностей на основе новейших статистических данных и последних нормативных изменений. Несмотря на присущие им некоторые характерные черты, в целом отмечается нарастание цифровизационных процессов, прежде всего при участии финансово-технологических компаний, а также при поддержке регулирующих органов. Анализируя их протекание, автор приходит к выводу о нарастающем стимулировании использования диджитальных валют в форме стейблкоина, поддерживаемого Банком международных расчетов и G7 - на глобальном уровне, и соответствующими институтами государственного регулирования - на региональном и национальном уровнях. The article analyzes the latest digitalization processes in the aspect of digital institutialization, covering various levels of the modern world economy - from global to national. The purpose of the article is, based on an analysis of the practice of introducing digital institutialization at various levels, to identify their features and comply them with the modern requirements for the development of the world economy and the system of international finance. The scientific novelty of the study lies, firstly, in considering the direction (digital institutialization) that has not been sufficiently studied in the economic studies, and secondly, in analyzing and identifying patterns based on the latest statistical data and the latest regulatory changes. Despite some characteristic features inherent to them in general, there is an increase in digitalization processes, primarily with the participation of fintech companies, as well as with the support of regulatory bodies. Analyzing their course, the author comes to the conclusion about the growing stimulation of the use of digital currencies in the form of a stablecoin, supported by the Bank for International Settlements and the G7 - at the global level, and by the relevant institutions of state regulation - at the regional and national levels.

The article attempts to examine the characteristic features of kinship terms in Armenian, English and Russian. Kinship terms make up a solid system with closely interconnected constituents. Kinship terms, which can be found in all languages, act as universalities. However, being universalities kinship terms may be different in different languages in terms of ethnolinguistic salience. The existence of certain kinship terms in a given language is, of course, connected with the kinship relations existing in the given society. Language affects the world perception of the language bearers. It reflects the notions and phenomena that are of prime importance for the speakers of the given language.
