The observable activity of translation, the series of text comprehension and text production bursts we identify as translation, is the result of the activation of complex underlying cognitive systems. In the conduct of research it is often useful to approach such complex systems using a ‘levels of explanation’ framework. This paper considers David Marr’s (1982) three levels of explanation as they might apply to understanding translation and translation expertise more robustly. In cognitive translation studies to date, we have not really extended our understanding of expertise much past the second (algorithmic/representational) level in Marr’s scheme; we have failed to grapple as effectively as we might with the problem of how the second generation computationalist expertise constructs we adopted almost twenty years ago could be integrated with, for instance, connectionist neural network models of the mind, creating a third generation of expertise models. This paper offers some frameworks laying out how that end might be achieved using, for instance, symbolic connectionism and implementational connectivism. Further, it argues that given the overtly symbolic nature of translation language processing, cognitively-oriented translation scholars are uniquely suited to benefit from approaches that bridge the divide between symbol processing models and connectionist ones.

Future Work

The field of natural language processing has seen impressive progress in recent years, with neural network models replacing many of the traditional systems. A plethora of new models have been proposed, many of which are thought to be opaque compared to their feature-rich counterparts. This has led researchers to analyze, interpret, and evaluate neural networks in novel and more fine-grained ways. In this survey paper, we review analysis methods in neural language processing, categorize them according to prominent research trends, highlight existing limitations, and point to potential directions for future work.

Negation Detection

Abstract Using natural language processing, it is possible to extract structured information from raw text in the electronic health record (EHR) at reasonably high accuracy. However, the accurate distinction between negated and non-negated mentions of clinical terms remains a challenge. EHR text includes cases where diseases are stated not to be present or only hypothesised, meaning a disease can be mentioned in a report when it is not being reported as present. This makes tasks such as document classification and summarisation more difficult. We have developed the rule-based EdIE-R-Neg, part of an existing text mining pipeline called EdIE-R (Edinburgh Information Extraction for Radiology reports), developed to process brain imaging reports, (https://www.ltg.ed.ac.uk/software/edie-r/) and two machine learning approaches; one using a bidirectional long short-term memory network and another using a feedforward neural network. These were developed on data from the Edinburgh Stroke Study (ESS) and tested on data from routine reports from NHS Tayside (Tayside). Both datasets consist of written reports from medical scans. These models are compared with two existing rule-based models: pyConText (Harkema et al. 2009. Journal of Biomedical Informatics42(5), 839–851), a python implementation of a generalisation of NegEx, and NegBio (Peng et al. 2017. NegBio: A high-performance tool for negation and uncertainty detection in radiology reports. arXiv e-prints, p. arXiv:1712.05898), which identifies negation scopes through patterns applied to a syntactic representation of the sentence. On both the test set of the dataset from which our models were developed, as well as the largely similar Tayside test set, the neural network models and our custom-built rule-based system outperformed the existing methods. EdIE-R-Neg scored highest on F1 score, particularly on the test set of the Tayside dataset, from which no development data were used in these experiments, showing the power of custom-built rule-based systems for negation detection on datasets of this size. The performance gap of the machine learning models to EdIE-R-Neg on the Tayside test set was reduced through adding development Tayside data into the ESS training set, demonstrating the adaptability of the neural network models.

Image Caption

In the modern era, image captioning has become one of the most widely required tools. Moreover, there are inbuilt applications that generate and provide a caption for a certain image, all these things are done with the help of deep neural network models. The process of generating a description of an image is called image captioning. It requires recognizing the important objects, their attributes, and the relationships among the objects in an image. It generates syntactically and semantically correct sentences.In this paper, we present a deep learning model to describe images and generate captions using computer vision and machine translation. This paper aims to detect different objects found in an image, recognize the relationships between those objects and generate captions. The dataset used is Flickr8k and the programming language used was Python3, and an ML technique called Transfer Learning will be implemented with the help of the Xception model, to demonstrate the proposed experiment. This paper will also elaborate on the functions and structure of the various Neural networks involved. Generating image captions is an important aspect of Computer Vision and Natural language processing. Image caption generators can find applications in Image segmentation as used by Facebook and Google Photos, and even more so, its use can be extended to video frames. They will easily automate the job of a person who has to interpret images. Not to mention it has immense scope in helping visually impaired people.

Gradient Computation

Over the past few years, neural networks have re-emerged as powerful machine-learning models, yielding state-of-the-art results in fields such as image recognition and speech processing. More recently, neural network models started to be applied also to textual natural language signals, again with very promising results. This tutorial surveys neural network models from the perspective of natural language processing research, in an attempt to bring natural-language researchers up to speed with the neural techniques. The tutorial covers input encoding for natural language tasks, feed-forward networks, convolutional networks, recurrent networks and recursive networks, as well as the computation graph abstraction for automatic gradient computation.

Low Dimensional

Graphs are powerful data structures that allow us to represent varying relationships within data. In the past, due to the difficulties related to the time complexities of processing graph models, graphs rarely involved machine learning tasks. In recent years, especially with the new advances in deep learning techniques, increasing number of graph models related to the feature engineering and machine learning are proposed. Recently, there has been an increase in approaches that automatically learn to encode graph structure into low dimensional embedding. These approaches are accompanied by models for machine learning tasks, and they fall into two categories. The first one focuses on feature engineering techniques on graphs. The second group of models assembles graph structure to learn a graph neighborhood in the machine learning model. In this chapter, the authors focus on the advances in applications of graphs on NLP using the recent deep learning models.

Relation Classification

Semantic relation classification is an important task in the field of nature language processing. The existing neural network relation classification models introduce attention mechanism to increase the importance of significant features, but part of these attention models only have one head which is not enough to capture more distinctive fine-grained features. Models based on RNN (Recurrent Neural Network) usually use single-layer structure and have limited feature extraction capability. Current RNN-based capsule networks have problem of improper handling of noise which increase complexity of network. Therefore, we propose a capsule network relation classification model based on double multi-head attention. In this model, we introduce an auxiliary BiGRU (Bidirectional Gated Recurrent Unit) to make up for the lack of feature extraction performance of single BiGRU, improve the bilinear attention through double multihead mechanism to enable the model to obtain more information of sentence from different representation subspace and instantiate capsules with sentence-level features to alleviate noise impact. Experiments on the SemEval-2010 Task 8 benchmark dataset show that our model outperforms most of previous state-of-the-art neural network models and achieves the comparable performance with F1 score of 85.3% in capsule network.

Sense Disambiguation

While word sense disambiguation (WSD) has been extensively studied in natural language processing, such a task in low-resource languages still receives little attention. Findings based on a few dominant languages may lead to narrow applications. A language-specific WSD system is in need to implement in low-resource languages, for instance, in Taiwan Hakka. This study examines the performance of DNN and Bi-LSTM in WSD tasks on polysemous BUNin Taiwan Hakka. Both models are trained and tested on a small amount of hand-crafted labeled data. Two experiments are designed with four kinds of input features and two window spans to explore what information is needed for the models to achieve their best performance. The results show that to achieve the best performance, DNN and Bi-LSTM models prefer different kinds of input features and window spans.
