To make the communication carry on smoothly, the interpreterneeds to receive the information, decodes it, encodes it and produces his output simultaneously. This is a daunting task, in whichmemory counts. This paper firstly introduces the classification of memory in cognitive psychology and interpreting, and then elabo-rates the working mechanisms of memory in interpreting. Furthermore, some methods are put forward to better memory training forstudent interpreters.展开更多

If you could create an Al twin of yourself,would you?Such an avatar could be trained on your memories and mannerisms.It could converse with friends and colleagues.And it could live on long after you die.
