Translation rule selection is a task of selecting appropriate translation rules for an ambiguous source-language segment. As translation ambiguities are pervasive in statistical machine translation, we introduce two topic-based models for translation rule selection which incorporates global topic information into translation disambiguation. We associate each synchronous translation rule with so...

A sufficient condition for global synchronisation in coupled map lattices (CML) with translation invariant coupling and arbitrary individual map is proved. As in [Jost & Joy, 2001] where CML with reflection invariant couplings are considered, the condition only involves the linearised dynamics in the diagonal, namely for all points in the diagonal, the derivative must be contractive in all tran...

Terminating protein translation accurately and efficiently is critical for both protein fidelity and ribosome recycling for continued translation. The three bacterial release factors (RFs) play key roles: RF1 and 2 recognize stop codons and terminate translation; and RF3 promotes disassociation of bound release factors. Probing release factors mutations with reporter constructs containing progr...

Although it is widely appreciated that the use of global translation inhibitors, such as cycloheximide, in protein degradation assays may result in artefacts, these inhibitors continue to be employed, owing to the absence of robust alternatives. We describe here the promoter reference technique (PRT), an assay for protein degradation with two advantageous features: a reference protein and a gen...

  In this article the possible effects of the translation technologies on the critical thinking and translation ability of the students of the Translation Studies would be studied through a pre-experimental method of research. The participants of this research were thirty one Iranian senior Translation Studies students at the age group of 20-26 who were selected based on their age, educational...

We introduce multi-modal, attentionbased Neural Machine Translation (NMT) models which incorporate visual features into different parts of both the encoder and the decoder. Global image features are extracted using a pre-trained convolutional neural network and are incorporated (i) as words in the source sentence, (ii) to initialise the encoder hidden state, and (iii) as additional data to init...
