<span style="background-color: transparent;">In March, 2014, a new electronic version of the GCVS was made available </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">to the astronomical community. </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">We started working on the next, 81st Name-List of Variable Stars, </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">which will contain about 6000 objects. A half of the list will be ready </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">for publication by the end of 2014. </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">As usual, many dozens of corrections to the electronic GCVS </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">have been introduced during 2014. A new scanner for digitizing </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">the Moscow collection of astronomical plates was introduced by the end of 2013, </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">and we continued scanning. We also proceed with discoveries of new variable stars</span>
<div id="_mcePaste">using digitized plates. 1011 new variable stars were discovered <span style="background-color: transparent;">in a field in Cassiopeia. Two oral talks on the variable stars </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">from the digitizing project were presented (March, Prague; July, Sofia). </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">The work on the new system of automatic classification of variable stars for the GCVS, </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">based on photometric data, was continued. </span></div>

2. Working group "RVO data" (INASAN, led by Dana Kovaleva)

The Binary Star Database (BDB) beta version is available <span style="background-color: transparent;">at http://bdb.inasan.ru/ . The BDB includes all catalogued data </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">on physical and astrometric parameters of binaries and multiples </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">of various types. BDB provides a tool for effective managing </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">of the catalogues of binary stars into the IVO. Organization </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">of the information is based on the careful cross-identification </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">of the objects. This year, the new data catalogues has been added, </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">and the new approach to the solution of cross-identification problem </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">was developed. A new consistent scheme for identification of objects </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">in binary and multiple stars, BSDB (Binary Star DataBase), </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">is developed and implemented. The scheme allows to link properly data </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">with the relevant objects in the stellar system. The list of all binary </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">and multiple stars cross-identifiers (preliminarily named </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">Identification List of Binaries, ILB) is being created and will be used </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">to improve BDB request processing. IVO standards implementation into BDB is discussed. </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">The database request batch mode is being tested.</span>

3. Working group "Technologies of RVO information structures"
<div id="_mcePaste">(IPI RAS, led by Leonid Kalinichenko)</div>

In 2014 at the Institute of Informatics Problems in cooperation with colleagues from INASAN <span style="background-color: transparent;">investigations for developing virtual observatories have been conducted, focused on: investigation and </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">development of conceptual approach to astronomical problem solving and demonstration of its benefits </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">for particular cases; development of multiple object identification system and common approach to their </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">cross-identification; investigation of methods to support lifecycle of hypothesis-dviven research and </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">experiments; investigation of anomaly detection methods for various kinds of data.</span>

Investigation of conceptual approach to scientific problem solving

Astronomy as a data-intensive science becomes more and more dependent on the fast growing datasets <span style="background-color: transparent;">from various epochs, spectral ranges and instruments. Up to now researchers continue to be committed to </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">the approach according to which particular catalogs are selected prior to the problem statement, so that </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">the problem is defined in the terms of specific catalogs. Due to that problem specification and solving </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">become tightly tied to specific catalogs and services.</span>

Dominance of such approach impedes the problem solving methods reuse with other datasets as well as <span style="background-color: transparent;">collecting methods to apply in new researches. Virtual observatories stress this deficiency serving generally </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">as data archives today instead of serving also as libraries of analytic methods applicable to astronomical </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">objects and phenomena, not to catalog lines.</span>

In this regard using conceptual approach is noteworthy. It is built on the problem domain knowledge <span style="background-color: transparent;">allowing formulation of problem solving algorithms and data analysis methods in terms of the domain </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">concepts without reference to catalogs thus getting rid of the mentioned deficiencies. Catalogs in their </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">turn are mapped into the problem domain specifications and used to solve problems formulated in the </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">domain terms.</span>

<span style="background-color: transparent;"><br /></span>
<div id="_mcePaste">Benefits of conceptual approach application has been demonstrated on solving of problems related to <span style="background-color: transparent;">searching for secondary photometric standard candidates, detection photometric redshift of galaxies, </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">construction of binary and multiple star repository from heterogeneous databases, classification of </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">eclipsing stars. These problems have been formulated and solved over specifications of widely applied </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">knowledge dimensions in astronomy such as photometric systems, astronomical objects, multiple star </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">systems and others, and defined in the respective domain terms independently of the existing catalogs [1].</span></div>

Development of multiple object identification system and cross-identification approach

This work continues and develops research focused on solving of problems arising in the comprehensive <span style="background-color: transparent;">analysis of heterogeneous data sets by available arsenal of scientific methods and tools to identify useful </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">information and to gain new knowledge. Problems of identification and crossmatching of multiple objects </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">in astronomy were observed with a focus on systematization of identification and integrating of </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">multidimensional observational data of different types. Existing methods of identification of single and </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">multiple astronomical objects have been reviewed. BSDB scheme has been daveloped and implemented in </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">Binary star database (BDB). Problems and solutions in cross-identification methods have been correlated </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">to entity resolution methods in computer science including data schema mathing, data indexing in order to </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">reduce pairwise enumeration, data comparison methods, selection of data identifying unique objects or </span>
<div id="_mcePaste">allowing to estimate similarity [2].</div>

<div id="_mcePaste">Analysis of Methods and Tools for Hypothesis-Driven Scientific Experiment Support</div>

The objective of this study is to analyze, collect and systematize information on the role of hypotheses in <span style="background-color: transparent;">the data intensive research process as well as on support of hypothesis formation, evaluation, selection </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">and refinement in course of the natural phenomena modeling and scientific experiments. Facilities of </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">informatics for support of hypothesis-driven experiments, considered in the paper, are aimed at the </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">conceptualization of scientific experiments, hypothesis formulation and browsing in various domains </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">(including biology, biomedical investigations, neuroscience, astronomy), automatic organization of </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">hypothesis-driven experiments. Examples of scientific researches applying hypotheses considered in the </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">paper include modeling of population and structure synthesis of the Galaxy, connectome-related </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">hypothesis testing, studying of temperature trends in Australia, analysis of stock markets applying the </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">EMN (efficient market hypothesis), as well as algorithmic generation of hypotheses in the IBM Watson </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">project. An introduction into the state of the art of the hypothesis-driven research presented in the paper </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">opens a way for investigation of the generalized approaches for efficient organization of hypothesis-driven </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">experiments applicable for various branches of data intensive sciences [3].</span>

Survey of anomaly detection methods for data intensive research

<span style="background-color: transparent;">An approach to classify different anomaly detection methods according to the way the data is presented. </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">Different applications of the outlier analysis in various cases have been summarized. end we Specific </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">features of the methods suitable for the outlier analysis problem have been overviewed. Future plans </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">include working on the anomaly detection in various fields (e.g. finding peculiar objects in massive digital </span><span style="background-color: transparent;">sky astronomy surveys) [4].</span>
