this study was conducted to identify and compare the strategies applied by two native farsi translators in rendering the culture specific items (csis) of a literary text titled savushun in their english translations. in this study, csis refer to the materials, social customs, religious concepts, and traditions available in one language and culture but nonexistent in the other language and cultu...

setting standards for translation assessment has usually been problematic for authorities, theoreticians, and most commonly instructors. it is often difficult to tell the difference between translation evaluation, criticism, and assessment due to hardships of bridging the gap between theory and practice. the aim of this study was to create a rubric against which translations could be assessed. ...

The paper contains the inversion formula for weighted spherical mean. interest to reconstruction a function by its integral sphere grews tremendously in last six decades, stimulated spectrum of new problems and methods image reconstruction. We consider generalization classical mean inverse case when generalized translation acts instead regular. As particular this problem includes action means o...

The definitions of scattering matrix and inclusive in the framework formulation quantum field theory terms associative algebras with involution are presented. is expressed Green functions on shell (LSZ formula), generalized shell. expression for can be used also quasi-particles (for elementary excitations any translation-invariant stationary state, example, equilibrium state). An interesting no...

this research was conducted to examine whether there was a significant difference between the quality of translations produced by translation students who used bilingual (english to farsi) dictionaries with that of those using monolingual (english to english) dictionaries. to this end, 78 senior undergraduate students of english translation took part in a piloted english proficiency test, 60 of...

Some applications of linear temporal logic (LTL) require to translate formulae of the logic to deterministic ω-automata. There are currently two translators producing deterministic automata: ltl2dstar working for the whole LTL and Rabinizer applicable to LTL(F,G) which is the LTL fragment using only modalities F and G. We present a new translation to deterministic Rabin automata via alternating...

Providing a general and efficient Question Answering system over Knowledge Bases (KB) has been studied for years. Most of the works concentrated on the automatic translation of a natural language question into a formal query. However, few works address the problem on how users can interact with Question Answering systems during this translation process. We present a general mechanism that allow...

Scene matching is used for image registration in many fields. There are usually translation and an arbitrary unknown rotation angle between reference and template images. The corresponding scene matching algorithm costs far more computing time than that with small rotation angle and translation. Conceptions of generalized vector image, gray-scale image rotation transformation, gray-scale image ...
