Abstract:

The article studies transcreation in video game localisation within the modern discursive paradigm, with its focus on Team Fortress 2. The subjects studied are the original (i.e. English) and Russian localisations of the game. The objects of analysis are cases of transcreation, the specifics of transcreation as a phenomenon as well as its patterns with regard to English-Russian localisation. The article analyses and describes examples of cultural adaptation via transcreation, defines and describes the strategies of transcreation, and also seeks to determine the relevance of transcreation regarding video game localisation. As of today, there is a great number of localisation specialists, yet both phenomena of localisation (as whole) and transcreation (in particular, as one of the methods for game content adaptation) lack comprehensive linguistic research. In this respect, the study is novel since it addresses the emerging phenomenon of localisation, thus appealing to new content and introducing new discourse into translation studies. Specifically, the article addresses transcreation as one of the localisation techniques that offers unique requirements to translation both as a process and as a result that differ from the conventional ones in the practice.

Abstract:

AbstractWe study left and right Bousfield localisations of stable model categories which preserve stability. This follows the lead of the two key examples: localisations of spectra with respect to a homology theory and A-torsion modules over a ring R with A a perfect R-algebra. We exploit stability to see that the resulting model structures are technically far better behaved than the general case. We can give explicit sets of generating cofibrations, show that these localisations preserve properness and give a complete characterisation of when they preserve monoidal structures. We apply these results to obtain convenient assumptions under which a stable model category is spectral. We then use Morita theory to gain an insight into the nature of right localisation and its homotopy category. We finish with a correspondence between left and right localisation.

Abstract:

This editorial addresses social infrastructure in relation to urban planning and localisation, drawing together the themes in this thematic issue on “Localizing Social Infrastructures: Welfare, Equity, and Community.” Having contextualised social infrastructure, we present each of the 12 contributions by theme: (a) the social consequences of the localisation of social infrastructure for individuals, (b) the preconditions for localising social infrastructure in the urban landscape, and (c) the social consequences for the long-term social sustainability of the wider community. We conclude with the openings for future research, such as the need to continue researching localisation (for example, the ways localisations of social infrastructure support, maintain, or hinder inclusion and community-building, and which benefits would come out of using localisation as a strategic planning tool); second, funding (the funding of non-commercial social infrastructure and who would take on the responsibility); and third, situated knowledge (the knowledge needed by planners, architects, social service officials, decision makers, and the like to address and safeguard the importance of social infrastructure in urban development and regeneration processes).

Abstract:

Video game quality assurance (QA) is vital to ensuring a high-quality gaming experience across different languages and regions. Competent localisation testers are expected to have advanced language skills, exceptional attention to detail, and familiarity with the game they are testing. However, individual testing performance differs, prompting the question of what constitutes a proficient localisation tester. In this study, students (N = 43) from the degree in Translation and Interpreting from the University of Alicante and the Specialist degree in Translation for the Video Game Industry from the University of Vigo were asked to test a localised video game which contained deliberate errors introduced for the purpose of this study. Subsequently, they completed questionnaires regarding localisation-related attitudes, personality traits, and trait anxiety levels. The results of various bivariate correlation and multivariate linear regression analyses indicate that translation expertise, low emotional stability, and a preference for screen reading were significant predictors of higher error detection rates. Furthermore, other variables such as attitudes towards video games, punctiliousness, and reading speed correlated with error detection in video game localisation testing. These findings may contribute to the enhancement of tester selection and training processes, resulting in superior localisations and more satisfying player experiences across diverse languages and cultures.

Abstract:

Background/Objectives: De-escalation of axillary surgery is made possible by advancements in both neoadjuvant systemic therapy (NST) and in localisation technology for breast lesions. Magseed®, developed in 2013 by Dr. Michael Douk of Cambridge, United Kingdom, is a wire-free localisation technology that facilitates the localisation and retrieval of lymph nodes for staging. Targeted axillary dissection (TAD), which entails marked lymph node biopsy (MLNB) and sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB), has emerged as the preferred method to assess residual disease in post-NST node-positive patients. This systematic review and pooled analysis evaluate the performance of Magseed® in TAD. Methods: The search was carried out in PubMed and Google Scholar. An assessment of localisation, retrieval rates, concordance between MLNB and SLNB, and pathological complete response (pCR) in clinically node-positive patients post NST was undertaken. Results: Nine studies spanning 494 patients and 497 procedures were identified, with a 100% successful deployment rate, a 94.2% (468/497) [95% confidence interval (CI), 93.7–94.7] localisation rate, a 98.8% (491/497) retrieval rate, and a 68.8% (247/359) [95% CI 65.6–72.0] concordance rate. pCR was observed in 47.9% (220/459) ) [95% CI 43.3–52.6] of cases. Subgroup analysis of studies reporting the pathological status of MLNB and SLNB separately revealed an FNR of 4.2% for MLNB and 17.6% for SLNB (p = 0.0013). Mean duration of implantation was 37 days (range: 0–188). Conclusions: These findings highlight magnetic seed localisation’s efficacy in TAD for NST-treated node-positive patients, aiding in accurate axillary pCR identification and safe de-escalation of axillary surgery in excellent responders.

"Diverse organ-specific localisation of a chemical defence, cyanogenic glycosides, in flowers of eleven species of Proteaceae."

Abstract:

Floral chemical defence strategies remain under-investigated, despite the significance of flowers to plant fitness. We used cyanogenic glycosides (CNglycs)—constitutive secondary metabolites that deter herbivores by releasing hydrogen cyanide, but also play other metabolic roles—to ask whether more apparent floral tissues and those most important for fitness are more defended as predicted by optimal defence theories, and what fine-scale CNglyc localisation reveals about function(s)? Florets of eleven species from the Proteaceae family were dissected to quantitatively compare the distribution of CNglycs within flowers and investigate whether distributions vary with other floral/plant traits. CNglycs were identified and their localisation in florets was revealed by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionisation mass spectrometry imaging (MALDI-MSI). We identified extremely high CNglyc content in floral tissues of several species (>1% CN), highly tissue-specific CNglyc distributions within florets, and substantial interspecific differences in content distributions, not all consistent with optimal defence hypotheses. Four patterns of within-flower CNglyc allocation were identified: greater tissue-specific allocations to (1) anthers, (2) pedicel (and gynophore), (3) pollen presenter, and (4) a more even distribution among tissues with higher content in pistils. Allocation patterns were not correlated with other floral traits (e.g. colour) or taxonomic relatedness. MALDI-MSI identified differential localisation of two tyrosine-derived CNglycs, demonstrating the importance of visualising metabolite localisation, with the diglycoside proteacin in vascular tissues, and monoglycoside dhurrin across floral tissues. High CNglyc content, and diverse, specific within-flower localisations indicate allocations are adaptive, highlighting the importance of further research into the ecological and metabolic roles of floral CNglycs.

Full text

Abstract:

Single-molecule localisation microscopy (SMLM) uses software to extract super-resolved positions from microscope images of fluorescent molecules. These localisations can then be used to render super-resolution images or analysed to extract information about molecular behaviour. The GDSC SMLM software provides a set of tools for analysing SMLM data in a single cross-platform environment. The software identifies fluorescent molecules in raw microscope images and localises their positions using stages of spot detection, spot fitting and spot rejection. The resulting localisation data set can then be visualised, cropped and filtered. A suite of downstream analysis tools enable the user to perform single-particle tracking, cluster analysis and drift correction. In addition, GDSC SMLM also provides utility tools that enable modelling of EM-CCD and sCMOS cameras as well as point spread functions (PSFs) for data simulation. The software is written in Java and runs as a collection of plugins for the ImageJ software.

Abstract:

This paper focuses on the localisation and adaptation of one particular aspect of the computer game: the soundtrack. Sometimes bespoke, sometimes selected from commercial releases, it provides a background, supporting role in creating atmosphere and supporting the emotive state of the game space. But how often is the target market considered when selecting appropriate musical content? Is it possible to use this almost subliminal channel into the game player’s consciousness to increase his awareness of what is happening around him, and give him a feel for his character’s emotional and physical wellbeing? This paper presents a novel approach for transforming the soundtrack - via a system the author originally created for the purposes of capturing and recreating emotive content in music.

Abstract:

Completely endophytic renal tumours pose challenges in laparoscopic nephron-sparing tumour excisions, with the use of intraoperative imaging techniques (e.g. ultrasound) being crucial when managing such tumours. The use of a percutaneous hookwire for tumour localisations are in use in several other surgical fields, such as breast surgery. An asymptomatic 52-year-old man presented with an incidental small right sided solid 33-mm interpolar renal mass identified on computed tomography. A guided insertion of a percutaneous localisation wire was carried out prior to a laparoscopic partial nephrectomy to assist in intraoperative tumour landmark/margins identification. Operative time was 210 minutes with zero ischaemia time, with an estimated blood loss of 200 ml. No perioperative complications were observed and the patient was discharged two days postoperatively. Histology revealed the mass to be a Fuhrman grade 2 clear-cell carcinoma with a 2-mm clear surgical margin. The patient remained free of recurrence at 16 months of follow-up. We have reported our first experience of wire localisation prior to laparoscopic partial nephrectomy for an intrarenal mass, which to our knowledge could be the first of its kind in renal surgery. Percutaneous wire localisation of endophytic renal tumours is potentially safe and effective and can allow nephron-sparing surgery where laparoscopic ultrasound is not available. Longer-term and further evidence should be encouraged.

Full text

Abstract:

This article proposes a holistic localisation framework for underwater robotic swarms to dynamically fuse multiple position estimates of an autonomous underwater vehicle while using fuzzy decision support system. A number of underwater localisation methods have been proposed in the literature for wireless sensor networks. The proposed navigation framework harnesses the established localisation methods in order to provide navigation aids in the absence of acoustic exteroceptive sensors navigation aid (i.e., ultra-short base line) and it can be extended to accommodate newly developed localisation methods by expanding the fuzzy rule base. Simplicity, flexibility, and scalability are the main three advantages that are inherent in the proposed localisation framework when compared to other traditional and commonly adopted underwater localisation methods, such as the Extended Kalman Filter. A physics-based simulation platform that considers environment’s hydrodynamics, industrial grade inertial measurement unit, and underwater acoustic communications characteristics is implemented in order to validate the proposed localisation framework on a swarm size of 150 autonomous underwater vehicles. The proposed fuzzy-based localisation algorithm improves the entire swarm mean localisation error and standard deviation by 16.53% and 35.17%, respectively, when compared to the Extended Kalman Filter based localisation with round-robin scheduling.

Abstract:

The detection of chemical species and understanding their respective localisations in tissues have important implications in plant science. The conventional methods for imaging spatial localisation of chemical species are often restricted by the number of species that can be identified and is mostly done in a targeted manner. Mass spectrometry imaging combines the ability of traditional mass spectrometry to detect numerous chemical species in a sample with their spatial localisation information by analysing the specimen in a 2D manner. This article details the popular mass spectrometry imaging methodologies which are widely pursued along with their respective sample preparation and the data analysis methods that are commonly used. We also review the advancements through the years in the usage of the technique for the spatial profiling of endogenous metabolites, detection of xenobiotic agrochemicals and disease detection in plants. As an actively pursued area of research, we also address the hurdles in the analysis of plant tissues, the future scopes and an integrated approach to analyse samples combining different mass spectrometry imaging methods to obtain the most information from a sample of interest.

Abstract:

Efficient localisation plays a vital role in many modern applications of Unmanned Ground Vehicles (UGV) and Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), which contributes to improved control, safety, power economy, etc. The ubiquitous 5G NR (New Radio) cellular network will provide new opportunities to enhance the localisation of UAVs and UGVs. In this paper, we review radio frequency (RF)-based approaches to localisation. We review the RF features that can be utilized for localisation and investigate the current methods suitable for Unmanned Vehicles under two general categories: range-based and fingerprinting. The existing state-of-the-art literature on RF-based localisation for both UAVs and UGVs is examined, and the envisioned 5G NR for localisation enhancement, and the future research direction are explored.

Abstract:

The aim of Web services is the provision of software services to a range of different users in different locations. Service localisation in this context can facilitate the internationalisation and localisation of services by allowing their adaption to different locales. The authors investigate three dimensions: (i) lingual localisation by providing service-level language translation techniques to adopt services to different languages, (ii) regulatory localisation by providing standards-based mappings to achieve regulatory compliance with regionally varying laws, standards and regulations, and (iii) social localisation by taking into account preferences and customs for individuals and the groups or communities in which they participate. The objective is to support and implement an explicit modelling of aspects that are relevant to localisation and runtime support consisting of tools and middleware services to automating the deployment based on models of locales, driven by the two localisation dimensions. The authors focus here on an ontology-based conceptual information model that integrates locale specification into service architectures in a coherent way.

Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Porcelain veneers are permanent restorations that combine good aesthetic with functionality by minimal destructive techniques. AIM: This study aimed to investigate the influence of the preparation designs on the fracture localisation. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Three preparation designs of porcelain veneers fabricated by a method of laying on a fireproof abutment on maxillary central incisor were examined in this in vitro study-feather preparation, bevel preparation and incisal overlap – palatal chamfer. The samples from all three groups were loaded into a universal test machine-TRITECH WF 10056 until damage occurred on the porcelain veneer. Fracture localisation was classified as an incisal, gingival or combination. Data were analysed with statistical programs: STATISTICA 7.1; SPSS 17.0. RESULTS: In feather preparation, as a consequence of the mechanical force, the most common is the incisal localisation (66.7%), followed by the combined (33.3%), while the gingival fracture localisation is not registered. In bevel preparation, the most common fracture localisation is combined (53.6%), followed by incisal (35.7%) and subsequent gingival localisation (10.7%). In incisal overlap (palatal chamfer), combined and gingival localisation of the fracture is equally recorded in 14.3% of the samples, while the incisal is the most common localisation and is registered in 72.4%. CONCLUSION: During the study, a statistically significant dependence was found between the localisation of the occurred changes (incisal, gingival and combination) and the three different types of preparation.

Abstract:

The paper proposes a new approach to temporal clauses and temporal adverbs, which are mostly said to "localize" the main verb. In recent work of Vicenzo Lo Cascio and others, temporal clauses and adverbs are treated completely differently and independently. We want to show that they should be handled together. Therefore, we start from a different conception of temporal localization, based on non-linguistic localization, as used in f.e. geography. So, we are able to show similarities between temporal clauses and adverbs. Our conclusion is that the localizer is always the time interval which is situated at the background, although it is not necessarily expressed by the temporal clause or adverb. On the contrary, a temporal clause or adverb can also be localized by the verb of the main clause.

Abstract:

Cellular diversity in the Drosophila central nervous system is generated through a series of asymmetric cell divisions in which one progenitor produces two daughter cells with distinct fates. Asymmetric basal cortical localisation and segregation of the determinant Prospero during neuroblast cell divisions play a crucial role in effecting distinct cell fates for the progeny sibling neuroblast and ganglion mother cell. Similarly asymmetric localisation and segregation of the determinant Numb during ganglion mother cell divisions ensure that the progeny sibling neurons attain distinct fates. The most upstream component identified so far which acts to organise both neuroblast and ganglion mother cell asymmetric divisions is encoded by inscuteable. The Inscuteable protein is itself asymmetrically localised to the apical cell cortex and is required both for the basal localisation of the cell fate determinants during mitosis and for the orientation of the mitotic spindle along the apical/basal axis. Here we define the functional domains of Inscuteable. We show that aa252-578 appear sufficient to effect all aspects of its function, however, the precise requirements for its various functions differ. The region, aa288-497, is necessary and sufficient for apical cortical localisation and for mitotic spindle (re)orientation along the apical/basal axis. A larger region aa288-540 is necessary and sufficient for asymmetric Numb localisation and segregation; however, correct localisation of Miranda and Prospero requires additional sequences from aa540-578. The requirement for the resolution of distinct sibling neuronal fates appears to coincide with the region necessary and sufficient for Numb localisation (aa288-540). Our data suggest that apical localisation of the Inscuteable protein is a necessary prerequisite for all other aspects of its function. Finally, we show that although inscuteable RNA is normally apically localised, RNA localisation is not required for protein localisation or any aspects of inscuteable function.

Abstract:

Localisation of humanitarian aid has emerged as a major issue after the World Humanitarian Summit in 2016 which emphasised the importance of locally-led response as a corrective to power imbalances in the humanitarian system. However, the practical complexities of localised humanitarian aid are yet to be fully discussed. This paper aims to examine the concept of localisation in humanitarian aid through a case study of a local non-governmental organisation, the Cambodian Children's Trust (CCT), in Cambodia. Drawing on the framework of localisation proposed by Baguios et al., (2021), we analyse the application of localisation of child protection programs run by CCT. We provide a holistic understanding of how localisation is conducted in practice, and the impacts it has on the wider humanitarian sector. Our study illustrates that power can be effectively developed to local entities and localisation with empowerment could be achieved despite highly challenging conditions.

Abstract:

The paper presents a Wi-Fi-based indoor localisation system. It consists of two main parts, the localisation model and an Access Points (APs) detection module. The system uses a received signal strength (RSS) gathered by multiple mobile terminals to detect which AP should be included in the localisation model and whether the model needs to be updated (rebuilt). The rebuilding of the localisation model prevents the localisation system from a significant loss of accuracy. The proposed automatic detection of missing APs has a universal character and it can be applied to any Wi-Fi localisation model which was created using the fingerprinting method. The paper considers the localisation model based on the Random Forest algorithm. The system was tested on data collected inside a multi-floor academic building. The proposed implementation reduced the mean horizontal error by 5.5 m and the classification error for the floor’s prediction by 0.26 in case of a serious malfunction of a Wi-Fi infrastructure. Several simulations were performed, taking into account different occupancy scenarios as well as different numbers of missing APs. The simulations proved that the system correctly detects missing and present APs in the Wi-Fi infrastructure.

Abstract:

This paper addresses a simple implementation technology for localising a group of mobile nodes using the Peer-To-Peer (P2P) ranging measurements obtained from a Mobile Wireless Sensor Network (MWSN). In recent years, MWSN-based multi-target localisation technologies have been investigated with alacrity. However, it is difficult to implement P2P ranging and data transformation for multi-target localisation iteratively using single channel MWSN. Also, there are critical problems in the conventional localisation algorithms associated with the estimation errors owing to the erroneous linearization of a nonlinear range equation and bad relative locations of the reference nodes and target node. In this paper, very simple P2P ranging and connection data sharing procedures that can be easily implemented in single channel MWSN are established. Moreover, an adaptive localisation algorithm is presented to reduce the estimation errors that may occur in the conventional localisation algorithms. To verify the performance of the presented implementation technology, a localisation system prototype is developed and the presented procedures and algorithm are embedded in the prototype. Through actual experiments, the validity of the localisation system containing the proposed procedures and algorithm is demonstrated.

Abstract:

Since localisation emerged in the 1980s as an activity linked to the software industry, its evolution has gone hand in hand with technological advances. In the globalised market of the 21st century, an ever-increasing range of digital products must be localised. While academic institutions are aware of how the insatiable demand for localisation is affecting the translation industry, there is no consensus regarding what courses on localisation should teach and how they should teach it. This article reports the findings of a survey-based study that adopted a descriptive-interpretive methodology to collect both quantitative and qualitative data from a group of 16 localisation trainers teaching on undergraduate translation courses in Spanish universities. The results reinforce the finding of an earlier unpublished study by the same authors (AUTHOR 2018) that localisation training is keeping pace with technological evolution. In addition, respondents noted that one of their main challenges is finding authentic teaching materials and recommended closer collaboration between academia and the localisation industry.

Abstract:

The quality of air that people breathe has become a very important parameter of quality of life. Pollution contributes to numerous diseases, problems with the absorption of knowledge, and also reduces work efficiency. The article attempts to find the relationship between road traffic and indoor air quality. The parameter used to assess air pollution was particulate matter (smog). The research was carried out in three localisations with different traffic volumes, in three places for each localisation, in the summer, autumn, and winter periods. It was found that in areas with heavy road traffic, this traffic causes an inflow of pollutants into the rooms. In low – traffic localisations, sources other than road traffic have a greater impact on the indoor air quality, especially in the cool periods (autumn, and winter).

Abstract:

Cross-border e-commerce has gained increasing popularity globally and thrives under the backdrop of the ‘One Belt One Road’ policy of China, which resonates with UN’s sustainable development goals targeting countries in the South. In this study, we investigate Zongteng, which is one of the first cross-border e-commerce companies in China, to assess how supply chain innovation activities can become core to a firm’s business model innovation. Data were collected from Zongteng senior managers, internal company documents, and open online resources. We found that the firm needed changes in its business model, which brought new participants into the business ecosystem and changed their respective positions. We further identified three types of supply chain localisations in cross-border e-commerce for export markets (sales, warehousing, and R&D localisation), which the company’s establishment of overseas warehouses enabled. The three localisation strategies serve as the driving force and the main business model innovation in cross-border e-commerce. This study contributes to the supply chain innovation literature by proposing that overseas warehouses, bonded warehouses, and supply chain finance are capabilities that form part of the business model innovation in cross-border e-commerce.

Abstract:

In recent years, the public’s demand for location services has increased significantly. As outdoor positioning has matured, indoor positioning has become a focus area for researchers. Various indoor positioning methods have emerged. Pedestrian dead reckoning (PDR) has become a research hotspot since it does not require a positioning infrastructure. An integral equation is used in PDR positioning; thus, errors accumulate during long-term operation. To eliminate the accumulated errors in PDR localisation, this paper proposes a PDR localisation system applied to complex scenarios with multiple buildings and large areas. The system is based on the pedestrian movement behavior recognition algorithm proposed in this paper, which recognises the behavior of pedestrians for each gait and improves the stride length estimation for PDR localisation based on the recognition results to reduce the accumulation of errors in the PDR localisation algorithm itself. At the same time, the system uses self-researched hardware to modify the audio equipment used for broadcasting within the indoor environment, to locate the acoustic source through a Hamming distance-based localisation algorithm, and to correct the estimated acoustic source estimated location based on the known source location in order to eliminate the accumulated error in PDR localisation. Through analysis and experimental verification, the recognition accuracy of pedestrian movement behavior recognition proposed in this paper reaches 95% and the acoustic source localisation accuracy of 0.32 m during movement, thus, producing an excellent effect on eliminating the cumulative error of PDR localisation.

Full text

Abstract:

In recent models of visual search it has been proposed that, in rapid parallel search, information about the location of a target pattern among distractors and information about its identity would not be available simultaneously, but that target location is represented at earlier stages of visual processing than target identity. In the present study, the priority of location information over identity information in parallel visual search was investigated by means of one identification and two localisation tasks of different levels of difficulty. In all three tasks, the stimulus display was identical. An oblique line segment, randomly 45° or 135° in orientation, was presented randomly at one quadrant of the display. In the identification task, the observer reported the orientation of the oblique line irrespective of its location. In the easy localisation task, the observer indicated whether the oblique line was at the left or right side of the display, and in the difficult localisation task whether it was in the upper or lower part of the display. In both localisation tasks, the observer ignored the orientation of the target line. The oblique line was accompanied by one, five, seventeen, or thirty-nine vertical distractor line segments in all tasks. The results showed that the response speed in the left vs right localisation was faster than in the identification task, whereas performance in the up vs down localisation was inferior. When the response factors (stimulus–response compatibility) in the left vs right localisation were taken into account, there were no performance differences between localisation and identification. Thus, these results demonstrated that direct performance comparisons between localisation and identification may be somewhat arbitrary, and they do not solve the issue of priority of location or identity information in rapid visual search.

Abstract:

The stress-strain curve of a material is usually obtained from the load-displacement curve measured in a tensile test, assuming no strain localisation up to maximum load. However, strain localisation and fracture phenomena are far from being completely understood. Failure and strain localisation on plane tensile specimens has been studied in this work. A deeply instrumented experimental benchmark on steel specimens has been developed. Surface strain fields have been recorded throughout the tests, using an optical extensometer. This allowed characterisation of the strain localisation and failure processes. Tests have been numerically modelled for a more detailed analysis. Preliminary results show a substantial influence of geometrical specimen defects on the strain localisation phenomena that may be critical on the stress-strain curves obtained and in the failure mechanisms.

Abstract:

Abstract Game localisation is an emerging field in Translation Studies that initially began attracting attention in the late 1990s, when the first studies analysing this new translation phenomenon were published by professionals working in the field. In the last decade, research on game localisation has gained impetus. Particularly, in recent years, the number of books, journal articles, book chapters, undergraduate, masters and doctoral dissertations aiming to shed light on this relatively young area of study have increased considerably. This paper examines existing research on game localisation, focusing on published papers (articles and book chapters) and books. It presents a diachronic view of game localisation research, describing the main topics and methods used, as well as the issue of research materials. Finally, it explores potential future research avenues and calls for reception studies, which are necessary to consolidate game localisation as an established research domain within Translation Studies.

Abstract:

Regarding assistance to disabled people for object manipulation and carrying, the paper focuses on the localisation for mobile robot autonomy. In order to respect strong low-cost constraints, the perception system of the mobile robot uses sensors of low metrological quality, ultrasonic ring and odometry. That poses new problems for localisation, in particular. Among different localisation techniques, we present only off-line localisation. With poor perception means, it is necessary to introduce a priori knowledge on sensors and environment models. To solve the localisation problem, the ultrasonic image is segmented applying the Hough transform, well-adapted to ultrasonic sensor characteristics. The segments are then matched with the room, modelled and assumed to be rectangular. Several positions are found. A first sort, based on a cost function, reduces the possibilities. The remaining ambiguities are removed by a neural network which plays the part of a classifier detecting the door in the environment. Improvements of the method are proposed to take into account obstacles and non-rectangular room. Experimental results show that the localisation operates even with one obstacle.
