In present Statistical Machine Translation (SMT) systems, alignment is trained in a previous stage as the translation model. Consequently, alignment model parameters are not tuned in function of the translation task, but only indirectly. In this paper, we propose a novel framework for discriminative training of alignment models with automated translation metrics as maximization criterion. In th...

Eukaryotic translation is a complex process composed of three main steps: initiation, elongation, and termination. During infections by RNA- and DNA-viruses, the eukaryotic translation machinery is used to assure optimal viral protein synthesis. Human immunodeficiency virus type I (HIV-1) uses several non-canonical pathways to translate its own proteins, such as leaky scanning, frameshifting, s...

Plagiarism which is defined as “the wrongful appropriation of other writers’ or authors’ works and ideas without citing or informing them” poses a major challenge to knowledge spread publication. Plagiarism has been placed in four categories of direct, paraphrasing (rewriting), translation, and combinatory.

The infantile presentation of mitochondrial respiratory chain defects frequently simulates acute bacterial infection and sepsis. Consequently, broad spectrum antibiotic therapy is often initiated before definitive diagnosis is reached and without taking into consideration the potential harm of antibiotics affecting mitochondrial translation. Here, we demonstrate that some commonly used translat...

the dispute over form and meaning has a long history among translators and translation researchers, some believing the form to be of higher priority and hence choosing the literal method and others cherishing meaning and accordingly opting for free translation. the present study seeks to survey the preference of the readers for these styles so as to analyze the efficiency of each method. two tr...
