Phonological and Sociolinguistic Challenges of Translating Yorùbá Play, and Game Songs to Singable English for Children by Bolanle O. Sogunro

“…Consequently, the translations are “unperformable” as oral texts, thus, failing their aesthetic and functional purpose for children. To investigate the translation problems involved and proffer solutions, this essay analyses five randomly selected Yoruba songs and seven of their available English translations from online sources and an unpublished manuscript, using sociolinguistic translation theory and the analytical framework of Franzon’s song translation choices. …”

Harmonic State Estimation Method Based on Bayesian Optimized Elastic Network Regression by Siqi MA, Zhong WANG

“…Firstly, when the least square method is used to estimate the harmonic state, the weighted 1-norm and 2-norm are added to the penalty function at the same time; In addition, in order to estimate the harmonic state more efficiently and accurately, the Gaussian process and Bayesian optimization are applied to select the weight of 1-norm and 2-norm; Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed method is verified in IEEE14 node. …”
