This chapter examines the dynamic latency between human translators’ reading input and speaking output during aloud sight translation. It aims to determine whether temporal eye-voice span (EVS) at sentence level could work as a indicator of cognitive effort speech processing. Thirty participants performed both translation tasks with either English or Chinese texts. Their eye movements outputs w...

Comparing semantic and pragmatic accounts of exhaustivity, obligatory exhaustivity of multiple wh-questions is argued to be problematic for pragmatic approaches. Thus, a unified semantic approach is suggested$chosen that relates exhaustivity to an inherent property of t...

This paper presents an image enhancement model, D2BGAN (Dark to Bright Generative Adversarial Network), translate low light images bright without a paired supervision. We introduce the use of geometric and lighting consistency along with contextual loss criterion. These when combined multiscale color, texture edge discriminators prove provide competitive results. performed extensive experiments...
