This book offers a novel perspective on the intersection of translation and narration in literary translation by investigating how three translations of Shuihu Zhuan present the original narrative mode to the target readership in terms of four narrative elements-voice, commentary, point of view and motif-in different periods of history. It not only validates but also quantifies the differences in strategy-making patterns between translators, as well as between different narratological categories. The established theoretical frameworks (including a narrative-descriptive model and a sociological explanatory framework) and the data collected may provide methodological and empirical support for further studies on shifts of narrative features in translation. The tendencies manifested by different translators and identified by the study may also shed new light on the teaching and learning of translation skills. The book offers a valuable reference guide for scholars, practitioners, translators and graduate students in the fields of e.g. language, translation, literature and cultural studies, and for anyone with an interest in Chinese classical literature, Chinese-English translation, narrative studies or cross-cultural studies.
The LNCS volume 10996 constitutes the proceedings of the 13th Chinese Conference on Biometric Recognition, held in Urumchi, China, in August 2018. The 79 regular papers presented in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from 112 submissions. The papers cover a wide range of topics such as Biometrics, Speech recognition, Activity recognition and understanding, Online handwriting recognition, System forensics, Multi-factor authentication, Graphical and visual passwords.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 9th Chinese Conference on Biometric Recognition, CCBR 2014, held in Shenyang, China, in November 2014. The 60 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from among 90 submissions. The papers focus on face, fingerprint and palmprint, vein biometrics, iris and ocular biometrics, behavioral biometrics, application and system of biometrics, multi-biometrics and information fusion, other biometric recognition and processing.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 8th Chinese Conference on Biometric Recognition, CCBR 2013, held in Jinan, China, in November 2013. The 57 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from among 100 submissions. The papers address the problems in face, fingerprint, palm print, vein biometrics, iris and ocular biometrics, behavioral biometrics and other related topics, and contribute new ideas to research and development of reliable and practical solutions for biometric authentication.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 7th Chinese Conference on Biometric Recognition, CCBR 2012, held in Guangzhou, China, in December 2012. The 46 revised full papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 80 submissions. The papers address the problems in face, iris, hand biometrics, speaker, handwriting, gait, soft biometrics, security and other related topics, and contribute new ideas to research and development of reliable and practical solutions for biometric authentication.
Following the previous four annual conferences, the 5th Chinese Conference on Biometrics Recognition (Sinobiometrics 2004) was held in Guangzhou, China in December 2004. The conference this year was aimed at promoting the international exchange of ideas and providing an opportunity for keeping abreast of the latest developments in biometric algorithms, systems, and applications. The 1st Biometrics Verification Competition (BVC) on face, iris, and fingerprint recognition was also conducted in conjunction with the conference. This book is composed of 74 papers presented at Sinobiometrics 2004, contributed by researchers and industrial practitioners from Korea, Japan, Singapore, Hong Kong, France, UK, US, as well as China. Of these, 60 papers were selected from 140 submissions and 14 were invited. The papers not only presented recent technical advances, but also addressed issues in biometric system design, standardization, and applications. Included among the invited were four feature papers on the ideas and algorithms of the best-performing biometric engines, which were either competition winners at the Face Authentication Test (FAT) 2004 or the Fingerprint Verification Competition (FVC) 2004, or they were the best-performing iris and palmprint recognition algorithms. The papers were complemented by five keynote lectures on biometrics, and face, fingerprint, and iris authentication and multimodal fusion by Arun Ross (West Virginia University) and Anil K. Jain (Michigan State University), Josef Kittler (University of Surrey), John Daugman (University of Cambridge), Raffaele Cappelli (University of Bologna), and Stan Z. Li (Chinese Academy of Sciences).
