Fractal Dimension of Exceptional Sets in Semi-Regular Continued Fractions
This paper examines how the average value of the sequence bn in the Lehner expansion of a real number x influences its box dimension. Our primary objective is to analyze how variations in the average of bn impact the box dimension, which serves as a measure of the complexity of the sequence. Using the box-counting method, we numerically estimate the box dimension and explore its relationship with the fractal nature of Lehner expansions

Transforming the Research Commercialisation Ecosystem from Science Push to Open Innovation Model
This paper provides a critical analysis of the commercialization of research in a developing country that is undertaking science and technology policy reforms with an emphasis on the shift from a science-push to an open innovation model. Research commercialization is pivotal for technological advancement, but many innovations fail to reach the market, falling into the so-called "Valley of Death." In Kazakhstan, recent reforms are aimed at overcoming this gap, but the persistence of traditional linear models presents considerable obstacles. Through document analysis and semi-structured interviews, this study explores the nature of these reforms and the barriers encountered by academia and industry in the commercialization process. Theoretically, the study makes a contribution by examining the challenges of shifting from linear innovation models to more complex systems approaches. The findings underscore the difficulty of this transformation in Kazakhstan, highlighting the legacy of the Soviet-era focus on science-push models and the insufficient capacity of local industry to absorb new knowledge. The paper argues that building an effective commercialization pathway requires substantial investment in research infrastructure, capacity building, and regulatory adjustments to facilitate stakeholder collaboration
Comprehensive Analysis of a Recommender System for Career Guidance
Choosing a suitable specialty is crucial for students, influenced by personal interests, academic performance, and career prospects. However, many struggle due to a lack of clear guidance and information overload. This research proposes a recommendation system to help students choose appropriate specialties and elective courses based on their academic performance and grades. The study focuses on IT students, as this field offers a wide range of specialties and career opportunities. It utilizes machine learning techniques, including reinforcement learning algorithms, to analyze academic data and provide personalized recommendations. The study compares traditional machine learning algorithms like Decision Tree, Support Vector Machine, and Random Forest with reinforcement learning algorithms such as Q-learning and Deep Q-Network. The methodology involves data collection, preparation, and feature engineering, followed by implementing various classifiers to build the recommendation system. Results indicate that Q-learning achieves the highest accuracy in recommending specialties, outperforming other algorithms. However, traditional machine learning algorithms also show competitive performance, suggesting both approaches can be effective. This research contributes to educational technology by offering a practical solution to help students make informed academic and career decisions. Future work includes enhancing the recommendation system with real-time data and user feedback mechanisms to improve its effectiveness and usability
Mathematical modeling of infectious diseases and the impact of vaccination strategies
Mathematical modeling plays a crucial role in understanding and combating infectious diseases, offering predictive insights into disease spread and the impact of vaccination strategies. This paper explored the significance of mathematical modeling in epidemic control efforts, focusing on the interplay between vaccination strategies, disease transmission rates, and population immunity. To facilitate meaningful comparisons of vaccination strategies, we maintained a consistent framework by fixing the vaccination capacity to vary from 10 to 100% of the total population. As an example, at a 50% vaccination capacity, the pulse strategy averted approximately 45.61% of deaths, while continuous and hybrid strategies averted around 45.18 and 45.69%, respectively. Sensitivity analysis further indicated that continuous vaccination has a more direct impact on reducing the basic reproduction number R0 compared to pulse vaccination. By analyzing key parameters such as R0 , pulse vaccination coefficients, and continuous vaccination parameters, the study underscores the value of mathematical modeling in shaping public health policies and guiding decision-making during disease outbreak
Gender inequality in the top management of Kazakhstan companies
This thesis investigates the problem of gender inequality in the top management of companies in Kazakhstan, with a focus on large and small companies. The main objective of the work is to identify the extent of gender inequality, analyse the factors contributing to this inequality and assess its impact on companies' productivity and employee morale. The study is based on qualitative data analysis. In a large company in Kazakhstan, a national oil and gas company, women hold only 10 per cent of top management positions. As part of this analysis, 50 employees were interviewed, of whom 20 per cent reported barriers to the promotion of women to senior positions. In comparison, in smaller companies in Kazakhstan, the average proportion of women in senior management is 25 per cent. Analysis of data from 30 small companies showed that 30% of employees believe that gender inequality is less pronounced in their company compared to large companies. The main factors contributing to gender inequality include socio-cultural attitudes, economic barriers and organisational characteristics such as lack of flexible schedules and lack of support programmes for women. The study found that gender inequality has a negative impact on company productivity and employee morale. In a large company where gender inequality is more pronounced, employees show 15% lower levels of job satisfaction compared to small companies. In conclusion, the thesis offers recommendations to reduce gender inequality, including introducing flexible working hours, developing support and mentoring programmes for women, and changing company culture and policies. In addition, recommendations are made for government agencies to create favourable conditions for achieving gender equality in senior management of companies in Kazakhstan
