Abstract Translation is a process which needs concentration and a relaxed mind. Obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) is a mental disorder which causes the patients to repeat something continuously so that it is done in the best way. As both translation and OCD are mental processes, this study has investigated the relation between these two mental processes. For this purpose, at first Oxford Plac...

Ectropis obliqua picorna-like virus (EoPV) is an insect RNA virus that causes a lethal granulosis infection of larvae of the tea looper (Ectropis obliqua). An internal ribosome entry site (IRES) mediates translation initiation of EoPV RNA. Here, bicistronic constructs were used to examine the 5' untranslated region (UTR) of EoPV for IRES activity. The capacities of the EoPV 5' UTR IRES and anot...

Neural machine translation (NMT), a new approach to machine translation, has been proved to outperform conventional statistical machine translation (SMT) across a variety of language pairs. Translation is an open-vocabulary problem, but most existing NMT systems operate with a fixed vocabulary, which causes the incapability of translating rare words. This problem can be alleviated by using diff...

The 21 nucleotide RNA trafficking signal (RTS), originally identified in myelin basic protein mRNA, but also found in a variety of other localized RNAs, is necessary and sufficient for transport of RNA along microtubules in oligodendrocytes. The RTS binds specifically to the RNA binding protein, hnRNP A2. Together, the RTS and hnRNP A2 comprise cis/trans determinants for several steps in the RN...

This paper describes the latest version of speech-to-speech translation systems developed by the team of NICT-ATR for over twenty years. The system is now ready to be deployed for the travel domain. A new noise-suppression technique notably improves speech recognition performance. Corpus-based approaches of recognition, translation, and synthesis enable coverage of a wide variety of topics and ...

This report summarizes the MITLL-AFRL MT and ASR systems and the experiments run during the 2016 IWSLT evaluation campaign. Building on lessons learned from previous years’ results, we refine our ASR systems and examine the explosion of neural machine translation systems and techniques developed in the past year. We experiment with a variety of phrase-based, hierarchical and neural-network appr...

The current resurgence of interest in machine translation is partially attributable to the emergence of a variety of new paradigms, ranging from better translation aids and improved pre and post-editing methods, to highly interactive approaches and fully automated knowledge-based systems. This paper discusses each basic approach and provides some comparative analysis. It is argued that both int...

Understanding regulation of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) expression is of considerable interest given that mitochondrial dysfunction is important in human pathology and aging. Similar to the situation in bacteria, there is no compartmentalization between transcription and translation in mitochondria; hence, both processes are likely to have a direct molecular crosstalk. Accumulating evidence sugge...

With the development of market economy and globalization, advertisement has become more and more important, and meanwhile, it is an indispensable part in people’s daily life. Therefore, the translation of advertisement has attracted a lot of attention of domestic and foreign experts and scholars. A variety of research has been done on it. However, there still exist many problems in the advertis...
