Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Similarities and distinctions in logical structures of the Chinese and English languages are due to different but interrelated logical systems of China and the West. We may well say Logics influences translation and monitors the whole process of translation. In order to make translation more suitable to the target language's logical system, this paper views from the aspect of logic and discusses some practical and feasible logical translation methods by analyzing examples. The paper puts forward some suggestions on logical text translation. 1) When translating texts showing the three universal laws of Logics, i.e. the law of identity, the law of non-contradiction and the law of excluded middle, and the law of space, translators should translate them according to the logical sequence of the source language. Chinese and English are different in leading inferential modes, therefore, translators should reorganize the logical sequence according to the phenomena that Chinese focus on induction and English focus on deduction. 2) When translating texts showing the law of time and the law of cause and effect, translators should also reorganize the logical sequence according to the target language's features.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
