尽管经常观察到翻译的产物与非翻译文本有所不同,但学者们强调了这种差异的两个不同的基础。一些人指出,从源语言以特定于源语言的方式溢出到翻译中的干扰,而另一些人则指出了独立于源语言的翻译过程的一般影响。使用一系列文本分类实验,我们表明这两个效果都存在,而且它们之间存在连续性。在从给定的源语言中翻译的文本中,翻译的效果是一致的,即使在源语言家族的文本中,其中一些也是一致的。值得注意的是,我们发现,即使对于广泛无关的源语言和多种流派,翻译的文本和非翻译文本之间的差异也足以使学习的分类器准确地确定给定文本是翻译还是原始的。
While it is has often been observed that the product of translation is somehow different than non-translated text, scholars have emphasized two distinct bases for such differences. Some have noted interference from the source language spilling over into translation in a source-language-specific way, while others have noted general effects of the process of translation that are independent of source language. Using a series of text categorization experiments, we show that both these effects exist and that, moreover, there is a continuum between them. There are many effects of translation that are consistent among texts translated from a given source language, some of which are consistent even among texts translated from families of source languages. Significantly, we find that even for widely unrelated source languages and multiple genres, differences between translated texts and non-translated texts are sufficient for a learned classifier to accurately determine if a given text is translated or original.
