  2. Aperiodic tiling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aperiodic_tiling

    An aperiodic tiling is a non-periodic tiling with the additional property that it does not contain arbitrarily large periodic regions or patches. A set of tile-types (or prototiles) is aperiodic if copies of these tiles can form only non-periodic tilings. The Penrose tilings are a well-known example of aperiodic tilings. [1] [2]

    [11] The work ultimately earned Shechtman the 2011 Nobel Prize in Chemistry [12] and inspired significant advancements in materials science and mathematics. On 25 October 2018, Luca Bindi and Paul Steinhardt were awarded the Aspen Institute 2018 Prize for collaboration and scientific research between Italy and the United States, after they ...

  4. Equivalence (translation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equivalence_(translation)

    According to Eugene Nida, dynamic equivalence, the term as he originally coined, is the "quality of a translation in which the message of the original text has been so transported into the receptor language that the response of the receptor is essentially like that of the original receptors."

  5. Penrose tiling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Penrose_tiling

    A Penrose tiling with rhombi exhibiting fivefold symmetry. A Penrose tiling is an example of an aperiodic tiling.Here, a tiling is a covering of the plane by non-overlapping polygons or other shapes, and a tiling is aperiodic if it does not contain arbitrarily large periodic regions or patches.

  6. Einstein problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Einstein_problem

    In plane geometry, the einstein problem asks about the existence of a single prototile that by itself forms an aperiodic set of prototiles; that is, a shape that can tessellate space but only in a nonperiodic way. Such a shape is called an einstein, a word play on ein Stein, German for "one stone". [2]

  7. Translation studies - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Translation_studies

    Translation studies is an academic interdiscipline dealing with the systematic study of the theory, description and application of translation, interpreting, and localization.

  8. Translational research - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Translational_research

    Translational research (also called translation research, translational science, or, when the context is clear, simply translation) [1] [2] is research aimed at translating (converting) results in basic research into results that directly benefit humans. The term is used in science and technology, especially in biology and medical science.

  9. Transfer-based machine translation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transfer-based_machine...

    This representation can consist of a series of structures which represent the meaning. In these transfer systems predicates are typically produced. The translation also typically requires structural transfer. This level is used to translate between more distantly related languages (e.g. Spanish-English or Spanish-Basque, etc.)
