this article was written based on the key concept of polysystem theory which, in translating any literary text, emphasizes the transference of the social systems in which a text is embedded. as stated by tynjanov (1978a), polysystem theory saw translated literature as a system operating in the larger social systems of the target text. thus, the task of understanding as well as transferring such...

Grey theory [1] has been proposed over 30 years. Great endeavor has been devoted to increase the forecasting precision. One of methods treated the forecasting error to become the modified grey forecasting model. Hsu and Wen [2] modified original GM (1,1) models are improved by using residual modifications with Markov chain sign estimations. Hsu and Chen [3] improved grey GM (1,1) model, using a...

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to propose a grey linear control system for regulating the price of China’s real estate and provide the necessary support to assist the relevant management departments with their policy making. Design/methodology/approach – A grey state equation of the real estate market price that can reflect both the market supply-demand price mechanism and the productio...

In order to improve the prediction precision of grain yield, the grey system theory and the fuzzy neutral network are combined to construct the combined prediction model, which is applied in predicting the grain yield. Firstly, the basic theory of the grey system theory is analyzed. Secondly, the mathematical model of fuzzy neutral network is studied, and the corresponding algorithm procedure i...

High-quality products are considered as one of the most important practices for achieving success. However, it is really hard to predict and forecast the product quality due to some undetermined parameters. In order to forecast product quality from various aspects, we propose an integrated model of utilizing grey theory and neural network. In this paper, the grey forecasting model for product q...

in this paper, the optimal adaptive leader-follower consensus of linear continuous time multi-agent systems is considered. the error dynamics of each player depends on its neighbors’ information. detailed analysis of online optimal leader-follower consensus under known and unknown dynamics is presented. the introduced reinforcement learning-based algorithms learn online the approximate solution...

there are two dominant approaches to describe and understand the anatomy of complete health and well-being systems internationally. yet, neither approach has been able to either predict or explain occasional but dramatic crises in health and well-being systems around the world and in developed emerging market or developing country contexts. as the impacts of such events can be measured not simp...

Safety assessment of thermal power plants (TPP) is an important means to ensure the safety of production in thermal power production enterprises. Modern information technology can play an important role in TPP safety assessment. The evaluation of power plant systems relies, to a large extent, on the knowledge and experience of the experts undertaking the task. Case-based reasoning (CBR) is intr...
