Design factors to be considered in wide band Pre-D recording and playback equipment for usage in a versatile Pre-D system are presented. These design factors are introduced in a discussion of both the down-translator and up-translator. The mechanisms which produce spurious outputs from the up-translator and the effects caused by these spurious outputs are treated in detail. The extension of Pre...

Encouragingly accurate translations have recently been obtained using a connectionist translator called RECONTRA (Recurrent Connectionist Translator). In order to deal with tasks of medium or large vocabularies, distributed representations of the lexicons are required in this translator. A simple connectionist model has been recently designed to automatically obtain word distributed representat...

In TREC 2002 the Berkeley group participated only in the English-Arabic cross-language retrieval (CLIR) track. One Arabic monolingual run and three English-Arabic cross-language runs were submitted. Our approach to the crosslanguage retrieval was to translate the English topics into Arabic using online English-Arabic machine translation systems. The four official runs are named as BKYMON, BKYCL...

The FLEET computer [1] is a new architecture designed from the ground up with parallelism in mind, providing the programmer with direct control over data movement and concurrency. Since FLEET is a completely new architecture, programming for it can be quite challenging. The machine is inherently parallel, so sequential programming techniques do not directly translate to it. The MIPS to FLEET tr...

This paper presents a novel approach to facilitate the development and maintenance of translators for industrial robot programming languages. Such translators are widely used in robot simulation and offline programming systems to support programming in the respective native robot language. Our method is based upon a software architecture, that is provided as a complete translator framework. For...

In modern society Internet has become the most popular and efficient communication media. Most of the Internet resources are available on English language. However, English fluency rate in majority of the countries is not up to a satisfactory level. In Sri Lanka, it was observed that the English fluency rate has been reduced over past 30 years. Therefore the neediness of an English-to-Sinhala t...

The modern web contents are mostly written in English and developing a system with the facility of translating web pages from English to Bangla that can aid the massive number of people of Bangladesh. It is very important to introduce Natural Language Processing (NLP) and is required to developing a solution of web translator. It is a technique that deals with understanding natural languages an...
