The estimates are based on the use of three methods of multivariate statistical analysis: linear regression, discriminant analysis and neural networks. A training sample was used for evaluation, including the following factors: age and frequency of the conference, number of participants and number of reports, publication activity of the conference organizers, citation of reports. As a result of the study, the linear regression model confirmed the correctness of the quartiles exposed for 77% of conferences, while the methods of neural networks and discriminant analysis gave similar results, confirming the correctness of the quartiles exposed for 81 and 85% of conferences, respectively.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p>В статье представлены результаты оценки квартилей научных конференций, выставленных ведущими рейтинговыми агентствами. Оценки получены на основе применения трёх методов многомерного статистического анализа: линейной регрессии, дискриминантного анализа и нейронных сетей. Для оценки использовалась обучающая выборка, включающая следующие факторы: возраст и периодичность конференции, количество участников и количество докладов, публикационная активность организаторов конференции, цитируемость докладов. В результате проведённого исследования линейная регрессионная модель подтвердила верность выставленных квартилей для 77% конференций, в то время как методы нейронных сетей и дискриминантного анализа дали близкие результаты, подтвердив верность выставленных квартилей для 81 и 85% конференций соответственно.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>evaluation of quartiles of scientific conferences</kwd><kwd>discriminant analysis</kwd><kwd>neural networks</kwd><kwd>linear regression</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>оценка квартилей научных конференций</kwd><kwd>дискриминантный анализ</kwd><kwd>нейронные сети</kwd><kwd>линейная регрессия</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group><funding-statement xml:lang="en">The publication has been prepared with the support of the RUDN University Strategic Academic Leadership Program.</funding-statement></funding-group></article-meta></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><mixed-citation>Journal Quartiles https://www.manuscriptedit.com/scholar-hangout/quartilesof-the-journals-and-the-secret-of-publishing/.</mixed-citation></ref><ref id="B2"><label>2.</label><mixed-citation>Garfield, E.
