since any kind of training aims at educating professionals, this research tries to merge theoretical and practical bases of translation training and remove any obstacles in different educational programs existing in the fields of translation studies. translation training is not confined to language teaching, although mastering both source and target languages will make the translators more succ...

OBJECTIVES To provide an overview of the problem of temporal reasoning over clinical text and to summarize the state of the art in clinical natural language processing for this task. TARGET AUDIENCE This overview targets medical informatics researchers who are unfamiliar with the problems and applications of temporal reasoning over clinical text. SCOPE We review the major applications of te...

a foreign language teaching method is supposed to take into account the real communicative needs of the foreign language learner. using literary texts is a suitable way not only to teach a foreign language but to consider particular facts that relate to human and cultural needs of learners. using the humanistic-oriented literary texts as an authentic document in the foreign language course allo...

this study is the result of an attempt to investigate the differences between the persian translated drama text (page) of each english drama text with its performance on the stage (stage) in iran. in other words, the present researchers tried to find the implemented changes in page which make it real on the stage in the target language and culture in order to show that in drama translating and ...

Currently, there is a lack of text complexity awareness in NLG systems. Much attention has been given to text simplification. However, based upon results of an experiment, we unveiled that sophisticated readers in fact would rather read more sophisticated text, instead of the simplest text they could get. Therefore, we propose a technique that considers different readability levels during the m...

Classifying text genres across languages can bring the benefits of genre classification to the target language without the costs of manual annotation. This article introduces the first approach to this task, which exploits text features that can be considered stable genre predictors across languages. My experiments show this method to perform equally well or better than full text translation co...

This paper describes the implementation of a resource-light approach, cross-language transfer, to build and annotate a historical corpus for Old Occitan. Our approach transfers morpho-syntactic and syntactic annotation from resource-rich source languages, Old French and Catalan, to a genetically related target language, Old Occitan. The present corpus consists of three sub-corpora in XML format...

We present some experiments on text segmentation for German texts aimed at developing a method of segmenting historical texts. Since such texts have no (consistent) punctuation, we use a machine learning approach to label tokens with their relative positions in text segments using Conditional Random Fields. We compare the performance of this approach on the task of segmenting of text into sente...

This paper addresses the problem of automatic text simplification. Automatic text simplifications aims at reducing the reading difficulty for people with cognitive disability, among other target groups. We describe an automatic text simplification system for Spanish which combines a rule based core module with a statistical support module that controls the application of rules in the wrong cont...
