Researchers have mostly relied on massively multilingual models such as mBERT or XLM-R, plus a few monolingual releases like DeepPavlov's RuBERT. The authors describe a family of 13 Russian models across three architecture… 3. **[The Russian-focused embedders' exploration: ruMTEB benchmark and Russian embedding model design](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/snegirev-2025-russian-focused-embedders-exploration-rumteb/)** *(2025 · 19 citations)* Russian has lacked modern, dedicated text embedding models and a broad evaluation suite. Popular Russian encoders such as rubert-tiny2 and the SBERT large-nlu-ru variants are several years old, monolingual, and trained on dated corpora. The only Russian embedding benchmark, enkodechka, is small and has no retrieval… 4. **[From Standard Transformers to Modern LLMs: Bringing Dialogue Models, RAG, and Agents to the Classroom](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/tikhonova-2026-standard-transformers-modern-llms-bringing/)** *(2026)* This TeachNLP 2026 paper describes the second edition of an open university course on Transformer-based LLMs and multimodal models, first presented by Nikishina et al. ## Co-authors here 8 co-authors with a page, the most papers together first. - [Aleksandr Abramov](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/aleksandr-abramov/) ×2 - [Alena Fenogenova](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/alena-fenogenova/) ×2 - [Artem Snegirev](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/artem-snegirev/) ×2 - [Tatiana Shavrina](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/tatiana-shavrina/) ×2 - [Vladislav Mikhailov](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/vladislav-mikhailov/) ×2 - [Alexander Panchenko](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/alexander-panchenko/) - [Danil Astafurov](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/danil-astafurov/) - [Viktoriia A.
