Over the past four decades, efforts have been made to develop and evaluate
models for Empirical Translation Process Research (TPR), yet a comprehensive
framework remains elusive. This article traces the evolution of empirical TPR
within the CRITT TPR-DB tradition and proposes the Free Energy Principle (FEP)
and Active Inference (AIF) as a framework for modeling deeply embedded
translation processes. It introduces novel approaches for quantifying
fundamental concepts of Relevance Theory (relevance, s-mode, i-mode), and
establishes their relation to the Monitor Model, framing relevance maximization
as a special case of minimizing free energy. FEP/AIF provides a mathematically
rigorous foundation that enables modeling of deep temporal architectures in
which embedded translation processes unfold on different timelines. This
framework opens up exciting prospects for future research in predictive TPR,
likely to enrich our comprehension of human translation processes, and making
valuable contributions to the wider realm of translation studies and the design
of cognitive architectures.

过去四十年中，对实证式翻译过程研究（TPR）模型的发展与评估进行了努力，但一个全面的框架仍然难以捉摸。本文追溯了 CRITT TPR-DB 传统中实证 TPR 的演变，并提出了自由能原理（FEP）和主动推理（AIF）作为模拟深度嵌入式翻译过程的框架。它介绍了量化关联理论（关联性，s 模式，i 模式）基本概念的新方法，并建立了它们与监控模型的关系，将关联性最大化视为最小化自由能的特例。FEP/AIF 提供了一个数学严谨的基础，能够对不同时间轴上展开的嵌入式翻译过程进行建模。这一框架为未来的预测性 TPR 研究开辟了令人兴奋的前景，有望丰富我们对人类翻译过程的理解，并为翻译研究和认知架构设计作出宝贵的贡献。

Empirical Translation Process Research: Past and Possible Future  Perspectives

Horizontal (automatic) and vertical (control) processes have been observed
and reported for a long time in translation production. Schaeffer and Carl's
Monitor Model integrates these two processes into one framework, assuming that
priming mechanisms underlie horizontal/automatic processes, while
vertical/monitoring processes implement consciously accessible control
mechanisms. The Monitor Model has been criticized in various ways and several
misconceptions have accumulated over the past years. In this chapter, I update
the Monitor Model with additional evidence and argue that it is compatible with
an enactivist approach to cognition. I address several misconceptions related
to the Monitor Model.
