Objective: Foot disorders, especially pain and deformities, are common patients’ complaints. Foot Health Status Questionnaire (FHSQ) was developed with the aim of assessing general and foot health specifically in chronic foot disorders. The purpose of the current study is cross cultural adaptation of FHSQ to Persian language and evaluating psychometric properties of the translated version. Met...

We propose prefix constraints, a novel method to enforce constraints on target sentences in neural machine translation. It places a sequence of special tokens at the beginning of target sentence (target prefix), while side constraints (Sennrich et al., 2016) places a special token at the end of source sentence (source suffix). Prefix constraints can be predicted from source sentence jointly wit...

Rapid biosynthesis is key to the success of bacteria and viruses. Highly expressed genes in bacteria exhibit a strong codon bias corresponding to the differential availability of tRNAs. However, a large clade of lambdoid coliphages exhibits relatively poor codon adaptation to the host translation machinery, in contrast to other coliphages that exhibit strong codon adaptation to the host. Three ...

Since the emergence of translation memory software, translation companies and freelance translators have been accumulating translated text for various languages and domains. This data has the potential of being used for training domain-specific machine translation systems for corporate or even personal use. But while the resulting systems usually perform well in translating domain-specific lang...

This paper describes the NICT-2 translation system for the 3rd Workshop on Asian Translation. The proposed system employs a domain adaptation method based on feature augmentation. We regarded the Japan Patent Office Corpus as a mixture of four domain corpora and improved the translation quality of each domain. In addition, we incorporated language models constructed from Google n-grams as exter...

it is important to consider the health concerns of adolescents before developing and implementing public health promotion or health education curriculum programs aimed at ameliorating priority health problems experienced by adolescents. the aim of this study was to test the psychometric properties of the original adolescent health concern inventory (ahci) for use with an iranian population.this...

Background The kidney disease questionnaire is a tool constructed to measure knowledge of hemodialysis patients on topics related chronic kidney disease and renal transplantation. Aim The aims of the study were the translation and cultural adaptation in the Greek language of the translation and cultural adaptation of the Kidney Disease Questionnaire. Methodology The process included the forward...
