Where Is Your Place, Visual Place Recognition?
Authors: Garg Sourav , Fischer Tobias , Milford Michael
Published: August 2021

Visual Place Recognition (VPR) is often characterized as being able to recognize the same place despite significant changes in appearance and viewpoint. VPR is a key component of Spatial Artificial Intelligence, enabling robotic platforms and intelligent augmentation platforms such as augmented reality devices to perceive and understand the physical world. In this paper, we observe that there are three "drivers" that impose requirements on spatially intelligent agents and thus VPR systems: 1) the particular agent including its sensors and computational resources, 2) the operating environment of this agent, and 3) the specific task that the artificial agent carries out. In this paper, we characterize and survey key works in the VPR area considering those drivers, including their place representation and place matching choices. We also provide a new definition of VPR based on the visual overlap - akin to spatial view cells in the brain - that enables us to find similarities and differences to other research areas in the robotics and computer vision fields. We identify several open challenges and suggest areas that require more in-depth attention in future works.

The reporting and the analysis of current events around the globe has expanded from professional, editor-lead journalism all the way to citizen journalism. Nowadays, politicians and other key players enjoy direct access to their audiences through social media, bypassing the filters of official cables or traditional media. However, the multiple advantages of free speech and direct communication are dimmed by the misuse of media to spread inaccurate or misleading claims. These phenomena have led to the modern incarnation of the fact-checker --- a professional whose main aim is to examine claims using available evidence and to assess their veracity. Here, we survey the available intelligent technologies that can support the human expert in the different steps of her fact-checking endeavor. These include identifying claims worth fact-checking, detecting relevant previously fact-checked claims, retrieving relevant evidence to fact-check a claim, and actually verifying a claim. In each case, we pay attention to the challenges and the potential impact on real-world fact-checking.

Authors: Wang Jindong , Lan Cuiling , Liu Chang , Ouyang Yidong , Qin Tao
Published: August 2021

Domain generalization (DG), i.e., out-of-distribution generalization, has attracted increased interests in recent years. Domain generalization deals with a challenging setting where one or several different but related domain(s) are given, and the goal is to learn a model that can generalize to an unseen test domain. For years, great progress has been achieved. This paper presents the first review for recent advances in domain generalization. First, we provide a formal definition of domain generalization and discuss several related fields. Then, we categorize recent algorithms into three classes and present them in detail: data manipulation, representation learning, and learning strategy, each of which contains several popular algorithms. Third, we introduce the commonly used datasets and applications. Finally, we summarize existing literature and present some potential research topics for the future.

Authors: Wen Qingsong , Sun Liang , Yang Fan , Song Xiaomin , Gao Jingkun , Wang Xue , Xu Huan
Published: August 2021

Deep learning performs remarkably well on many time series analysis tasks recently. The superior performance of deep neural networks relies heavily on a large number of training data to avoid overfitting. However, the labeled data of many real-world time series applications may be limited such as classification in medical time series and anomaly detection in AIOps. As an effective way to enhance the size and quality of the training data, data augmentation is crucial to the successful application of deep learning models on time series data. In this paper, we systematically review different data augmentation methods for time series. We propose a taxonomy for the reviewed methods, and then provide a structured review for these methods by highlighting their strengths and limitations. We also empirically compare different data augmentation methods for different tasks including time series classification, anomaly detection, and forecasting. Finally, we discuss and highlight five future directions to provide useful research guidance.

Authors: Zhao He , Phung Dinh , Huynh Viet , Jin Yuan , Du Lan , Buntine Wray
Published: August 2021

Topic modelling has been a successful technique for text analysis for almost twenty years. When topic modelling met deep neural networks, there emerged a new and increasingly popular research area, neural topic models, with nearly a hundred models developed and a wide range of applications in neural language understanding such as text generation, summarisation and language models. There is a need to summarise research developments and discuss open problems and future directions. In this paper, we provide a focused yet comprehensive overview of neural topic models for interested researchers in the AI community, so as to facilitate them to navigate and innovate in this fast-growing research area. To the best of our knowledge, ours is the first review on this specific topic.
RAFT: Recurrent All-Pairs Field Transforms for Optical Flow (Extended Abstract)
Authors: Teed Zachary , Deng Jia
Published: August 2021

We introduce Recurrent All-Pairs Field Transforms (RAFT), a new deep network architecture for optical flow. RAFT extracts per-pixel features, builds multi-scale 4D correlation volumes for all pairs of pixels, and iteratively updates a flow field through a recurrent unit that performs lookups on the correlation volumes. RAFT achieves state-of-the-art performance on the KITTI and Sintel datasets. In addition, RAFT has strong cross-dataset generalization as well as high efficiency in inference time, training speed, and parameter count.

Authors: Paraschos Spyridon , Mollas Ioannis , Bassiliades Nick , Tsoumakas Grigorios
Published: August 2021

The use of machine learning rapidly increases in high-risk scenarios where decisions are required, for example in healthcare or industrial monitoring equipment. In crucial situations, a model that can offer meaningful explanations of its decision-making is essential. In industrial facilities, the equipment's well-timed maintenance is vital to ensure continuous operation to prevent money loss. Using machine learning, predictive and prescriptive maintenance attempt to anticipate and prevent eventual system failures. This paper introduces a visualisation tool incorporating interpretations to display information derived from predictive maintenance models, trained on time-series data.
Direction-aware Feature-level Frequency Decomposition for Single Image Deraining
Authors: Deng Sen , Feng Yidan , Wei Mingqiang , Xie Haoran , Chen Yiping , Li Jonathan , Zhang Xiao-Ping , Qin Jing
Published: August 2021

We present a novel direction-aware feature-level frequency decomposition network for single image deraining. Compared with existing solutions, the proposed network has three compelling characteristics. First, unlike previous algorithms, we propose to perform frequency decomposition at feature-level instead of image-level, allowing both low-frequency maps containing structures and high-frequency maps containing details to be continuously refined during the training procedure. Second, we further establish communication channels between low-frequency maps and high-frequency maps to interactively capture structures from high-frequency maps and add them back to low-frequency maps and, simultaneously, extract details from low-frequency maps and send them back to high-frequency maps, thereby removing rain streaks while preserving more delicate features in the input image. Third, different from existing algorithms using convolutional filters consistent in all directions, we propose a direction-aware filter to capture the direction of rain streaks in order to more effectively and thoroughly purge the input images of rain streaks. We extensively evaluate the proposed approach in three representative datasets and experimental results corroborate our approach consistently outperforms state-of-the-art deraining algorithms.
TCIC: Theme Concepts Learning Cross Language and Vision for Image Captioning
Authors: Fan Zhihao , Wei Zhongyu , Wang Siyuan , Wang Ruize , Li Zejun , Shan Haijun , Huang Xuanjing
Published: August 2021

Existing research for image captioning usually represents an image using a scene graph with low-level facts (objects and relations) and fails to capture the high-level semantics. In this paper, we propose a Theme Concepts extended Image Captioning (TCIC) framework that incorporates theme concepts to represent high-level cross-modality semantics. In practice, we model theme concepts as memory vectors and propose Transformer with Theme Nodes (TTN) to incorporate those vectors for image captioning. Considering that theme concepts can be learned from both images and captions, we propose two settings for their representations learning based on TTN. On the vision side, TTN is configured to take both scene graph based features and theme concepts as input for visual representation learning. On the language side, TTN is configured to take both captions and theme concepts as input for text representation re-construction. Both settings aim to generate target captions with the same transformer-based decoder. During the training, we further align representations of theme concepts learned from images and corresponding captions to enforce the cross-modality learning. Experimental results on MS COCO show the effectiveness of our approach compared to some state-of-the-art models.
EventDrop: Data Augmentation for Event-based Learning
Authors: Gu Fuqiang , Sng Weicong , Hu Xuke , Yu Fangwen
Published: August 2021

The advantages of event-sensing over conventional sensors (e.g., higher dynamic range, lower time latency, and lower power consumption) have spurred research into machine learning for event data. Unsurprisingly, deep learning has emerged as a competitive methodology for learning with event sensors; in typical setups, discrete and asynchronous events are first converted into frame-like tensors on which standard deep networks can be applied. However, over-fitting remains a challenge, particularly since event datasets remain small relative to conventional datasets (e.g., ImageNet). In this paper, we introduce EventDrop, a new method for augmenting asynchronous event data to improve the generalization of deep models. By dropping events selected with various strategies, we are able to increase the diversity of training data (e.g., to simulate various levels of occlusion). From a practical perspective, EventDrop is simple to implement and computationally low-cost. Experiments on two event datasets (N-Caltech101 and N-Cars) demonstrate that EventDrop can significantly improve the generalization performance across a variety of deep networks.
Zur Gliederung der Rechtskommunikation: mit einem Ansatz im Strafrecht
Authors: Bielawski Pawel
Published: August 2021

Variation in legal communication amounts to different use of legal language. Therefore, systematic recording and understanding of linguistic stratification is crucial both for the communication and the translation process. In this paper, we study existing classification models for legal communication and analyse their prerequisites. Based on the result that the presented models focus on different aspects of legal communication and are too general in their design for them to bring the complexity of legal communication across, we propose a more sophisticated model, which combines all the aspects of the analysed models. The model is discussed, using the language of German criminal law as an example. At the end, we explain the importance of the proposed model for translation-oriented analysis.
A new narrative about sustainability or a sustainable narrative?
Authors: Rahm Henrik , Thelander Åsa
Published: August 2021

The aim of this paper is to deepen the knowledge about legitimation practices in a political-economic text, namely, the consolidated government accounts. In particular the study is focused on how contested and conflicting rationalities and values are negotiated and legitimized in consolidated accounts before and after Agenda 2030 was signed. A discourse legitimation approach is used (van Leeuwen 2007, 2008) to study Swedish consolidated government accounts. The report is considered exemplary and the goals are ambitious. Since the introduction of Agenda 2030, the ultimate goals of SOEs have been rephrased and the value configurations developed. The text becomes more political and other values than economic values gain status. This shift is legitimized by references to international commitments, that should act as role models, implying that they are morally good companies contributing to a better world. The Swedish government is constructed as the responsible parent who ensures progress. Hence, the global goals and Agenda 2030 are legitimized but they in turn legitimize state ownership and the government as an active owner of companies.
TEACHING LEGAL TRANSLATION – A CASE STUDY OF MAKING STUDENTS AWARE OF TRANSLATION RISKS RESULTING FROM PLURICENTRISM
Authors: Matulewska Aleksandra , Kic-Drgas Joanna , Trzaskawka Paula
Published: August 2021

This article examines the phenomenon of pluricentrism in language for legal purposes. The purpose of the research is to discuss the coexistence of different language varieties resulting from the existence of pluricentric languages in a legal context, and how this can affect translation decisions. The research focuses on English and German. The authors apply the comparative method to identify differences and similarities in legal terminology, in order to develop the resulting didactic implications for legal translation courses. The methods used in the article encompass: the analysis of comparable texts, the terminological analysis of research material (comparative law methodology), the theory of skopos, and an analysis of the relevant literature. The research material mostly consisted of civil law documents of countries where the languages under discussion are spoken. The research hypothesis is that if a given language is an official language in more than one country, the legal languages are not uniform and vary in respect to national legal language variants (similar to general language), and consequently there is a risk of making an error. Thus the students of translation studies must be made aware of the resultant differences in order to solve translation problems more efficiently and to reduce the number of errors in specialised translation. The analysis of the source text through the prism of terminology should be related to the legal system of the country concerned. Students of translation courses should be aware of the semantic differences between legal terms in order to find proper equivalents.
Fragen und Antworten. Wissenskonstitution in Kontroversen am Beispiel des Glyphosat-Diskurses
Authors: Janich Nina , Simon Niklas
Published: August 2021

In this article we address the notion of questions and answers in written texts as it contributes to the construction of scientific knowledge in public discourse. Looking at two different text types, we explore the interactional aspect of knowledge construction manifested in the texts through the general principles of asking and answering as well as the rhetorical application of the mechanisms detected in public discourse: As an illustrative case we analyse “rapid reactions” of scientists made available by journalists as well as Q&As from environmental organisations, industrial corporations, lobbying groups, and the media in the public debate over glyphosate in Germany. The results show a wide range of rhetorical functions and point at the relevance and the extensive potential of questions and answers as rhetorical tools for knowledge construction in public discourses about scientific knowledge.

Published: August 2021

In the most of functional studies, various stress tests are used to assess functional improvement following spinal cord injury in animal models. However, available methods of motor function evaluation are not always accurate and unbiased. The main objective of the study was to create a new method of motor activity assessment in minor animal models of spinal cord injury. This method should provide an objective and accurate evaluation of limb motor function in models having severe neurological disorders following contusion spinal cord injury. The swimming test was used as the key behavioral test. To assess the motor function of swimming animals’ hind limbs, we measured angles of hind limbs movements adjusted to the motion direction axis. Then we calculated individual angles dispersion for each joint and limb using the parameters of angles sample dispersion and amplitude-depending dispersion. The current study included two groups of Sprague-Dawley rats: control group and a group of animals having moderate thoracic spinal cord contusion injury. Control animals demonstrated stable dispersion indicators for 6 weeks of follow-up. In the experimental group, a tendency to the improvement of motor function in hind limbs between 1 and 3 weeks was revealed followed by stabilization and preservation of both indicators between 3 and 6 weeks. Provided method based on the measurement of joint angles adjusted to the movement direction axis followed by calculation of indicators of variance of a random variable and amplitude-depending variance can be an effective and objective alternative for motor function evaluation.
Impacts of drought and herbicide stress on seed germination and early seedling growth in a legume crop mung bean (Vigna radiata L.)
Authors: Vikrant  , Jasmine A. , Roobavathi M. Roselin
Published: August 2021

Abiotic stress such as drought and agrochemicals leads the drastic reductions in legume yields, hence, in order to mitigate the loss of yields due to abiotic stresses, the production of stress tolerance genotypes of the legumes could be a rewarding approach. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to evaluate the drought and herbicide stress effects under ex-vitro conditions on seed germination and early seedling growth in a legume crop mung bean (Vigna radiata L.). To begin with, drought stress was induced by employing various concentrations of mannitol (50mM, 100mM, 250mM, 500mM, 750mM, and 1000mM) and polyethylene glycol (PEG-5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, and 25%) while during herbicide stress experiments, dicamba (3,6-dichloro-2-methoxybenzoic acid) and picloram (4-Amino-3,5,6-trichloro-2-pyridine carboxylic acid) were considered in various concentrations (5mg/L, 25mg/L, 50mg/L, and 100mg/L) of each. Moreover, data were collected as partial and full seed germination after 3- and 7-days of stress treatments respectively. After 7-days of mannitol stress treatments, results reveals that even the high concentration of mannitol (500mM) could be proved as weak osmotic stressor for seed germination (35%±0.14) in comparison to control (91%±0.74) while further increase in mannitol concentration (750mM) was proved to be lethal, toxic and inhibits seed germination completely. Furthermore, in comparison to mannitol, PEG turns out as strong osmotic stressors and (15%) of PEG was proved to very lethal for seed germination. Even during early seedling growth, increased concentrations of both mannitol and PEG were found to be inhibitory. Among two herbicides, the result shows that both herbicides (dicamba and picloram) were proved to be completely toxic and lethal even at very low concentrations (5mg/L) and induced abnormal seed germination and inhibited completely seedling growth. However, the inhibitory response of picloram herbicide stress on seed germination was found to be more pronounced and severe than dicamba herbicide. Hence, the present study reveals that in comparison to mannitol, PEG turns out as a strong osmotic stressor while picloram proves to be a relatively more toxic herbicide than dicamba for seed germination. Additionally, drought stress induced seedlings on transfer to soil exhibit inhibited growth under continuous irrigation with either mannitol or PEG solutions.
Records management and strategic information governance – a different perspective
Authors: Ignatov Ivan Aleksandrovich , Tyukavina Irina Aleksandrovna
Published: August 2021

This article examines the differences between the two competing in foreign management sectors of scientific and practical activity –records management and information governance – through comparing their definitions, content, and structure. The research is based on the analysis of scientific literature and normative framework, which describe the concept and structure of record management and information governance. The authors explores the factors and stages of the formation of records management and information governance. Special attention is given to the literature review dedicated to information governance, as a developing trend, which is yet lacking the generally accepted definition. The conclusion is made on the absence of fundamental differences between the records management and information governance, which match in their key functions. There is no doubt that the problem of uncontrolled increase in the volume of information is essential for both, foreign and domestic organizations. However, this problem along with attendant problems can be solved by through the traditional scientific-practical discipline of records management; therefore, the formation of a similar discipline seems unreasonable. The conducted research is substantiated by the need to summarize foreign experience in information governance, due to the absence of such works in the domestic management theory, as well as for the development of original approaches towards solution of the problem of expansion of information in the organizations.

Current Problems of Using Personal Data in Media Activities
Authors: Donskikh A. G.
Published: August 2021

Personal data is a complex and multi-component term that reflects all the contradictions in the development of information technologies and their impact on the lives of citizens. In the current circumstances, the activities of the media are influenced by the changing personal data regulation, and the work of journalists in the field of getting, processing, and dissemination of information is complicated. The article analyzes the specifics of the use of personal data in media materials. An analysis of judicial practice shows that in the conditions of legislation on personal data, the media is able to carry out professional activities and protect their rights, however for effective work, editorial staff needs legal knowledge in the field of working with personal data.

New legal expertise is required from journalists. Firstly, it is necessary to correctly understand the essence of the term personal data as a collection of information identifying a particular person. At the same time, it is important to take into account possible combinations and security of personal data.

Secondly, the nature of the information to publish is important. For example, if the dissemination of personal data is carried out when highlighting a problem of public interest. This principle avoids depersonalization of important information but requires conscientiousness and good faith in the preparation of material. However, the reality is that in each case the understanding of the public interest of journalists does not always coincide with the understanding of the courts.

Thirdly, it is crucially important to know how information was obtained and to assess the validity of the actions of journalists and sources in obtaining and transmitting information adequately. If the information is placed on public information resources following the current legislation, it is a legitimate source of information. This applies to information prepared by the press services of state organizations and departments, press releases posted on the websites of state authorities, information, disclosure, and publication of which is carried out in accordance with federal laws. Obtaining consent to disseminate information about a person from this person is also one of the most important rules that journalists, especially beginners, often forget about. Sometimes this is enough to avoid possible legal claims. The identity of the personal data subject who has become the object of journalistic material and its socio-professional status are also significant facts.
Media Globalization Specificity and Contradictions to Diversification of Western Media
Authors: Markina Yu. V.
Published: August 2021

The issuesof media concentration have currently been quite often the topic of public discussion and the subject of study of many analysts and publicists. The fact that the processes of concentration in recent decades are beginning to acquire a global character is first of all evidenced by the creation of large transnational media corporations, which are already showing a desire for international domination in a particular area of the media business. In addition, media owners from developed countries are actively expanding into the information markets of developing countries. Given the global impact of information technology on the entire socio-economic space, it seems necessary to define the concept of information globalization, to assess the scale of information shifts in the modern media economy. The relevance of this study is due to the need for a scientific understanding of concentration and diversification as forms of organizing media business in the context of globalization. Researchers identify globalization, convergence, glocalization, demassification, and diversification as the main trends characterizing the development of modern mass media.

The purpose of this articleis to characterize the processes of globalization in the communication industry that have influenced changes in the structure of the media market to describe the models of diversification and mutual integration of holding media.

The theoretical and methodological basis of the work was formed by conceptual provisions, recommendations, and conclusions presented in the fundamental scientific works of domestic researchers on history, theory, typology, research methods of the Russian media industry (E. L. Vartanova, S. M. Gurevich, E. Ch. Andrunas, S. I. Beglov, S. S. Smirnov). When writing this article, we used the methods of system analysis, as well as expert analytical, descriptive, historical and theoretical methods.

Conclusions. Globalization of information space, as an inevitable and extremely important phenomenon, affects all spheres of the socio-economic life of society, changing the motivation of economic actors at the micro level and modifying the macroeconomics in general.
The Magazine “Zolotoe runo” (1906–1909) as a Reflection of the Artistic Life of Russia at the Beginning of the 20th Century
Authors: Melnik N. D.
Published: August 2021

Purpose. The article studies the history of the magazine “Zolotoe runo” (“Golden Fleece”) that has been publishing in Moscow from 1906 till 1909. It was a project of the young art lover, millionaire N. P. Ryabushinsky, who decided to continue the mission of “miriskusniki” (members of the “World of Art” movement) and promote the aesthetic principles of symbolism, which he saw as the most promising style of art at the beginning of the 20th century.

Results. Based on the analysis of the memoirs written by contemporaries, correspondence between the representatives of the Russian cultural elite, publications in the periodical press, as well as outcomes of modern research, the author argues that the magazine “Zolotoe runo”, providing its pages to outstanding writers and publishing works of iconic artists and articles about their works, became one of the most influential periodicals about art in Russia.

Conclusion. This research shows that, having said a new word in art and journalism, the magazine “Zolotoe runo” became a worthy reflection of the artistic life of Russia at the beginning of the 20th century.
To the Question of Clarification of Some Media Concepts
Authors: Abramyan N. L. , Alekyan M. V. , Tadevosyan M. R.
Published: August 2021

In the context of the globalization of academic communication and exchange in the field of social sciences and humanities, the question of the accuracy of the terms used is crucial. In particular, the difference in understanding of concepts tends to get worse in the theory of journalism. There are many examples of this, but this article studies the specific problem of confusion in terms and definitions. Namely, are the concepts “information flows”, “journalism”, “mass media”, “QMS” equal in volume, or are they multi-volume and different in meaning? Based on the chosen research methods – the use of a combination of analysis, comparison, induction, generalization – we came to the conclusion that the media concepts presented above cannot be considered as equivalents, synonymous or interchangeable terms. The scope and content of the considered concepts do not coincide. It will be beneficial to classify them as “interdependent”, since only in such a ratio is it possible to effectively study them.
Bioactive lipid: A novel diagnostic approach for retinoblastoma in clinical management
Authors: Srivastava Ankit , Jit Bimal Prasad , Dash Rutumbara , Panda Manasa Kumar
Published: August 2021

Bioactive lipids, presumably lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) and sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P), play a critical role in regulating an array of cellular functions ranging from cellular fate determination, inflammation, immunity, and cancer. Epidemiological evidence suggests that both the metabolites play a prominent role in the development and progression of oncogenic phenotype in a variety of cancers including breast, colorectal, pancreatic, and lymphoma. Previous studies have demonstrated the possible association of LPA, S1P and their receptor in regulating the pathogenesis of retinoblastoma, however, the exact mechanism involved in this event has not been studied in detail. Importantly, understating the mechanistic basis of LPA and S1P regulation is of utmost significance, as far the phenotypical complexity of retinoblastoma (RB) is concerned. Findings from the recent investigations elucidate the prospective role of S1P in provoking the chemoresistant behavior of RB cells for etoposide. In this context, the current paper will enable the identification of novel diagnostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets for better treatment and clinical efficacy in children with RB.

Objectives:

Oxygen is among the commonly used drugs in acute emergencies. Prescription and administration of oxygen in emergencies by healthcare providers are reported to be inappropriate in most settings. There is a huge gap in the knowledge of health-care providers on various aspects of oxygen therapy. The purpose of this study was to assess the knowledge and practice of oxygen therapy among doctors and nurses working in Ondo State, South-West Nigeria and see how it compares with standard practice with a view to improving the quality care in this regard.

Materials and Methods:

A descriptive cross-sectional study was employed. The data were collected electronically using the Monkey survey application from consenting doctors and nurses through a self-administered validated and structured questionnaire. The questionnaire included the professional characteristics, educational background, awareness and use of oxygen therapy guidelines, knowledge of oxygen, indication for acute oxygen, and oxygen delivery practices. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and association between variables explored with Chi-square test at P < 0.05.

Results:

One hundred and seventy-six health workers participated in the study with mean age of 37.30 ± 8.88 years. One hundred and twelve (63.60%) of the respondents were doctors while 64 (36.40%) of the respondents were nurses. Sixty-eight (60.70%) of the doctors and 19 (29.70%) of nurses had a high level of knowledge of oxygen therapy (p<0.001). About half of both doctors and nurses had a poor practice level of oxygen therapy. The duration of oxygen administration (how long ago the respondent was involved in oxygen use and previous to formal training on oxygen therapy) were significantly associated with level of knowledge of oxygen therapy (p<0.001, 0.017).

Conclusion:

Results from this study suggest that the level of knowledge was high in about half of the respondents and about the same percentage had poor oxygen therapy practice in hospitals in Ondo State, South West Nigeria. Therefore, regular training of healthcare workers should be encouraged to update their knowledge and practice of oxygen therapy.

Поетичний переклад відноситься до найскладнішого напряму перекладу, оскільки він вимагає передачу ритму, рифи та й самого поетичного слова. Особливою складністю в поетичному перекладі є передача форми та змісту, що несе за собою певні «втрати». Пере- кладачу досить часто доводиться нехтувати формою заради пере- дачі змісту. Проте також простежується тенденція до зміни змісту заради збереження форми тексту оригіналу. Як зазначають дослід- ники, поетичний переклад передає концептуальний зміст, однак при цьому втрачається так звана емоційна забарвленість. Тому перед перекладачем поетичного твору постає завдання створити пере- клад, що зможе передати також і настрій тексту оригіналу, а це ста- новить певні складнощі, оскільки при цьому необхідно зберегти як зміст, так і форму тексту оригіналу. Ще одним завданням, яке постає перед перекладачем поетичного твору, є пошук лексичного еквіва- ленту. При цьому необхідно враховувати різницю в семантичному обсязі слів, що належать до різних мов. Таким чином, поетичний переклад являє собою відтворення метричної форми, об’єднаної з правильними словами. Слова та фрази тексту перекладу мають бути розподілені так, щоб мати відповідність до тексту оригіналу задля збереження поділу й з’єднання, установлених оригіналом. При заміні тексту оригіналу мовою перекладу важливо зберегти пев- ний інваріант задля визначення міри еквівалентності тексту пере- кладу. Текст перекладу поетичного твору є відмінним від оригіналу через використання перекладачем прийому інтерпретації, а також етнокультурну специфіку самого перекладача. У поетичному творі індивідуально-авторська картина світу отримує в тексті перекладу відображений характер, вона більш суб’єктивна й несе риси мов- но-етнокультурної особистості її творця. Отже, ми можемо гово- рити про наявність акценту на фігуративному вираженні. Разом із цим у тексті перекладу простежується тенденція до використання експресивних засобів і стилістичних прийомів, а також переклада- цьких замін. Таким чином, задля створення якісного поетичного перекладу використовується концептуальний аналіз трансформацій, що виникають при перекладі поетичного твору з однієї мови іншою.
ДОКОНЕЧНІСТЬ ЯК ПЕРЕКОНЛИВИЙ ПРИМУС У СЕМАНТИЧНІЙ СТРУКТУРІ АНГЛІЙСЬКОГО РЕЧЕННЯ З ПРЕДИКАТОМ FORCE
Authors: Дерев’янко О. А.
Published: August 2021

У статті проаналізовано специфіку каузативних дієслів як одного з основних засобів вираження дебітивної модальності. Серед значень каузативної семантики дієслова виокремлюємо значення примусу. Примус аналізуємо як зумовлену кимось або чимось необхідність діяти певним чином, усупереч волі, бажанню чи спрямування власних зусиль на виконання чого-небудь незалежно від бажання. Каузативна ситуація примусу включає відношення каузації, котре робить каузацію каузативною; каузатора; об’єкт каузації і стан об’єкта каузації. Уважаємо доречною класифікацію предикатів примусової дії, у якій вирізняються предикати переконливого примусу, настійності, нагальності; предикати заохочувального примусу; примусу з елементами погрози чи залякування; предикати отримання інформації за допомогою примусу; предикати соціально або службово обумовленого примусу; предикати підпорядкування та предикати самопримусу. До предикатів переконливого примусу, настійної наполегливості, нагальності/доконечності виконання дії відносимо такі лексеми: to force, cajole, cause, coax, compel, constrain, convince, drag, drive, impose, induce, influence, make, oblige, persuade, push, thrust, wheedle, wring тощо. Основним засобом вираження семантики примусу є предикат to force. У статті проаналізовано зазначену лексему на основі тлумачних словників, досліджено семантичну структуру англійського речення з предикатом to force; визначено детермінуючі чинники ситуації примусу. Предикат примусу to force має негативну конотацію, що пояснює небажаність, неготовність суб’єкта виконувати певну дію, тобто дія суперечить його волі, інтересам, тому в реченнях із предикатом to force є лексеми, які вказують на вимушену дію, пояснюють небажання її виконання, примушеність суб’єкта до її здійснення, тобто семантичний відтінок внутрішнього протистояння, негативного ставлення до дії може позначатися в контексті за допомогою слів із негативною семантикою.
НЕОЛОГІЗМИ В АНГЛОМОВНОМУ ДИСКУРСІ ПАНДЕМІЇ COVID-19

Published: August 2021

У статті розкрито специфіку сучасного англомовного дискурсу пандемії COVID-19 і структурно-семантичні характеристики неологізмів, які вживаються в межах цього дискурсу. Актуальність дослідження полягає в стрімкому збільшенні кількості текстів коронавірусної тематики на фоні чинної пандемічної кризи та появі в них численних новотворів на позначення явищ COVID-19. Дискурс пандемії COVID-19 є актуальним феноменом мисленнєво-мовленнєвої діяльності індивідів, який утворився на тлі подій 2019–2021 рр.. Він сформувався в результаті комунікації між учасниками різного статусу (професіоналами й цивільними громадянами), об’єднавши фонди знань про коронавірус у різних сферах людської діяльності (епідеміології, політики, економіки, бізнесу, психології тощо), оскільки пандемічна ситуація не лише справила величезний вплив на систему охорони здоров’я, а й докорінно змінила інші аспекти життя індивідів. Головною метою продуцентів англомовного дискурсу пандемії COVID-19 є підвищення суспільної свідомості щодо серйозності ситуації та глобальної важливості дотримання карантинних норм та обмежень задля запобігання поширенню коронавірусу й збереження життя і здоров’я людей. Досліджуваний дискурс має гібридну природу, оскільки в ньому інтегруються й перетинаються ознаки різних типів дискурсу, а саме: медичного, політичного, економічного, психологічного, освітнього, туристичного та побутового. Англомовний дискурс пандемії COVID-19 характеризується високим впливогенним потенціалом, мультимодальністю й неогенністю. Тексти коронавірусної тематики вирізняються насиченістю новими словами та словосполученнями, використання яких значно поширилося засобами масової інформації. За структурою досліджувані неологізми – це складні слова, більшість із яких утворені поєднанням або скороченням двох основ. Вони позначають нові реалії життя, безпосередньо пов’язані з пандемією COVID-19.
КАТЕГОРІЯ ВОЛІ У ФРАЗЕОЛОГІЇ РІЗНОСПОРІДНЕНИХ МОВ: ЛІНГВОКУЛЬТУРНИЙ І ПЕРЕКЛАДАЦЬКИЙ АНАЛІЗ

Стаття присвячена дослідженню лінгвокультурних і перекладацьких характеристик прислів’їв на позначення тематичного складника «воля» в різноспоріднених мовах. Проаналізовано прислів’я в англійській, українській і новогрецькій мовах за основними вольовими категоріями й виявлено головні риси національного менталітету кожного з трьох народів. У паремійному фонді української мови найбільше прислів’їв на позначення наполегливості й рішучості, далі йдуть вольові стани байдужості, покірливості, упертості, цілеспрямованості та піддатливості впливу; найрідше в українських прислів’ях зустрічаються слабовілля й сила волі. В англійських прислів’ях найчастіше відображені наполегливість і піддатливість впливу. Вольові стани покірливості, слабовілля, цілеспрямованості й рішучості посідають чільне місце в семантиці англійських прислів’їв, хоча прислів’їв на позначення упертості та байдужості не так багато. Прислів’я, що відображають силу волі, в англійській мові практично не зустрічаються. У новогрецькій мові найчастіше вживаються прислів’я на позначення наполегливості й байдужості. Далі йдуть вольові стани піддатливості впливу та покірливості. У семантиці новогрецьких прислів’їв відображено вольові категорії цілеспрямованості, сили волі та слабовілля. Найменш розкритими вольовими поняттями в новогрецькому паремійному фонді мови виявилися рішучість і впертість. Таким чином, відмінність семантики англійських, українських і новогрецьких прислів’їв на позначення вольових дій і станів людини пояснюється тим, що в кожного народу різні системи поглядів людини на себе та своє місце у світі, а отже, відрізняється й національний менталітет. Тим не менше спільні риси вказують на аналогічність мислення та схожість рис національного характеру, подібність естетично-логічної оцінки навколишнього світу. Установлено. що найбільш уживаними способами перекладу прислів’їв є описовий переклад, частковий еквівалентний переклад і повний прислівний еквівалент, найменш уживаними виявилися калька та дослівний переклад.
