Machine translation of non-literary texts: Some Canadian experiences

A survey was carried out of past and current Canadian experiences with machine-aided translation (MAT) systems of non-literary texts in one government institution and three industrial settings. Each organization requires a great deal of translation and had conducted several experiments in the use of MAT. The survey supports positive conclusions about the prospects for expanded use of computers in translation.The authors express their thanks to all those who helped in the preparation of this paper. We are particularly grateful to the staff of the translation departments of the organizations mentioned in the paper for their kind cooperation and their willingness to answer our questions: Chantal Delorme ofIBM Canada, Lorraine Desmarais and Mr. Plamondon of Bell Canada, Pierre Tellier of the Department of the Secretary of State, Maria Russo and Raymond Lapointe of the Xerox Corporation. Furthermore we thank Prof. Graeme Hirst for helpful discussion.     

SC文法功能体系

文法体系的研究一直是自然语言处理研究的核心问题之一.但是,由于自然语言本身所固有的复杂性和非规范性,多义问题始终未能得到圆满的解决.本文提出了SC文法(A SubCategory grammar for integrating Se-mantic and Case analysis),它是一种基于传统的上下文无关文法、语义文法,以及超前与反馈分析技术和格框架约束分析等技术的上下文相关处理文法.该文法不仅能继承传统的上下文无关文法的表示简洁、处理方便的特点,而且能实现语法和语义一体化分析和处理上下文相关以及复杂多义问题.

探讨了用解析的方法解决压敏标签贴标签机的剥离刀口的优化设计问题，分别提出了剥离刀口处的张力功、摩擦功、弹塑性变形功和剥离功的计算模型，并对结果进行了讨论，结果表明，剥离刀口的曲率半径存在一个最优值，此值分别与纸带预张力、压敏胶的特性、标签的瞬时剥离宽度、底纸带特性等有关。     

Carnot comparison of multi-temperature level absorption heat cycles

Comparison of different absorption heat cycles is not always made on the correct manner. This also includes comparison of an ideal absorption cycle with a mechanical analogy. A new Carnot model operating with two heat engines and two mechanical heat pumps is defined to be the correct and logical way to describe the mechanical analogy for an absorption heat pump and an absorption heat transformer. General equations for the Carnot coefficient of performance, COP_r, are exemplified and simulated for an absorption heat pump and an absorption heat transformer, and an entropy flow fraction diagram is introduced. The important fact that the absorption heat cycles must operate under the same conditions when they are compared is discussed.     

Study of miscibility enhancement in poly(styrene‐co‐4‐vinylphenol)/poly(ethylene oxide) blends by the spin labelling method

The electron spin resonance (ESR) spectra of end‐group spin labelled poly(ethylene oxide) (SLPEO) using 2,2,6,6‐tetramethyl‐piperdine‐1‐oxyl nitroxide and its blends with poly(styrene‐co‐4‐vinylphenol) (STVPhs) of different hydroxyl contents were recorded over a wide temperature range. For a blend of SLPEO and pure polystyrene (PS), the ESR spectrum was composed of a single motion component, indicating that PS was immiscible with PEO. For blends composed of SLPEO and different‐hydroxyl‐content STVPhs, two spectral components with different motion rates were observed over a certain temperature range. The difference between the motion rates should be attributed to micro‐heterogeneity in the blends, with the faster rate corresponding to a nitroxide radical motion trapped in the PEO‐rich domain and the slower rate corresponding to a nitroxide radical motion trapped in the STVPh‐rich domain. Variations in the values of a number of the ESR parameters (T_a, T_d and T_50G) and the apparent activation energy (E_a) with hydroxyl content in the blends indicated that the miscibility of the blends increased with increasing hydrogen‐bonding density due to specific interactions between the hydroxyl groups in STVPh and the ether oxygens in PEO.
