Technologies, Discourse Analysis, and the Spoken Word: The MRC Approach: An Empirical Approach to Interpreter Performance Evaluation and Pedagogy
Given the evanescent quality of the spoken word, interpreters tend to be evaluated, trained, and selected on the basis of unproven theories and preconceptions about the cognitive processes and areas of difficulty associated with their work. A gap persists between theoretical work and empirical evidence of the processes proposed by such studies. Recent developments in technology are now being applied to interpreter performance evaluation, shedding light on aspects of interpreter performance that have previously resisted systematic analysis. It is now possible to examine large volumes of language in use, in both audio and textual realms. This paper presents the MRC model for analysis of interpreter performance and a study conducted using that method for the purpose of identifying interpreter training needs. Theoretical background, the MRC model, and the study outcomes and pedagogical implications are presented.La parole étant évanescente, les interprètes sont évalués, formés et choisis en s’appuyant sur des bases théoriques non prouvées et sur des préconceptions des processus cognitifs et des secteurs de difficultés liées au travail. Un fossé existe entre les travaux théoriques et l’évidence empirique des processus proposés par de telles études. De récents développements technologiques utilisés à présent pour l’évaluation de la performance des interprètes apporte des informations sur certains aspects de la performance des interprètes inanalysables auparavant. Il est à présent possible d’analyser d’importantes quantité de « parole » à la fois auditives et textuelles. Cet article présente le modèle MRC d’analyse de la performance des interprètes et une étude avec cette méthode dans le but de déterminer les besoins de formation des interprètes. On donne également l’histoire théorique du modèle MRC, ainsi que les conclusions et implications pédagogiques
Evaluation of macroeconomic models for financial stability analysis
As financial stability has gained focus in economic policymaking, the demand for analyses of financial stability and the consequences of economic policy has increased. Alternative macroeconomic models are available for policy analyses, and this paper evaluates the usefulness of some models from the perspective of financial stability. Financial stability analyses are complicated by the lack of a clear and consensus definition of ‘financial stability’, and the paper concludes that operational definitions of this term must be expected to vary across alternative models. Furthermore, since assessment of financial stability in general is based on a wide range of risk factors, one can not expect one single model to satisfactorily capture all the risk factors. Rather, a suite of models is needed. This is in particular true for the evaluation of risk factors originating and developing inside and outside the financial system respectively.Financial stability; Banks; Default; Macroeconomic models; Policy

General Relativistic Radiative Transfer
We present a general method to calculate radiative transfer including
scattering in the continuum as well as in lines in spherically symmetric
systems that are influenced by the effects of general relativity (GR). We
utilize a comoving wavelength ansatz that allows to resolve spectral lines
throughout the atmosphere. The used numerical solution is an operator splitting
(OS) technique that uses a characteristic formal solution. The bending of
photon paths and the wavelength shifts due to the effects of GR are fully taken
into account, as is the treatment of image generation in a curved spacetime. We
describe the algorithm we use and demonstrate the effects of GR on the
radiative transport of a two level atom line in a neutron star like atmosphere
for various combinations of continuous and line scattering coefficients. In
addition, we present grey continuum models and discuss the effects of different
scattering albedos on the emergent spectra and the determination of effective
temperatures and radii of neutron star atmospheres
