The accurate estimation of segmental duration is crucial for natural-sounding text-to-speech synthesis. For predicting Korean segmental durations, conventional methods utilized phonemic context, part-of-speech context and locational information in prosodic phrase. In this paper, the tonal information of phonemes is employed for more accurate prediction. After defining two non-boundary tones and six boundary tones, we annotated the tonal label on each syllable of 400 sentences. To predict segmental duration using tonal information, we constructed neural networks with a real-valued output node predicting phonemic duration and trained them by backpropagation algorithm. Experimental results showed that the proposed features are effective for predicting Korean segmental durations, and we got 0.863 correlation coefficient of the observed durations and predicted ones.

Recent developments in component technology enable the construction of complex software systems by assembling together off-the-shelf components However, It is still difficult to develop efficient, reliable, and dynamically configurable component-based systems. Unspecified dependencies and behavior on components often has cause the source of the trouble. Therefore, component-based software systems must maintain explicit presentations of inter-component dependence and component requirements. In this paper, I describe the design on repository of component service to deployment, status reporting, and control in component service. Through the existing researches to customize component technology, I present the algorithm that supports dynamic dependency interface in order to reuse context of application.

In this study, the history of science (HOS) presented at the chapter of "Inquiry of science" in high school science textbooks developed under the 6th and 7th national curriculam was analyzed and compared. A total of 57 sections from 19 textbooks (6th: 12 textbooks, 7th: 7 textbooks) were analyzed in terms of the domain and the presentation level of the HOS described. The results revealed that the frequencies of HOS per page of the textbooks under the 7th curriculum tended to be higher than those under the 6th one in all the domains (conceptual, procedural, and contextual), of which the difference in conceptual domain was statistically different. Regarding the describing level (limited and extensive) at the presentation of the HOS, the frequencies of extensive descriptions per page for the textbooks under the 7th curriculum were also significantly higher than those under the 6th one. The improvement of frequencies and presentation level of HOS in 7th national curriculum could help students to understand scientific concept and nature of science and to have an interest about science.

It is noted that generally speaking, the expressing of actualization or non-actualization of events is not the main role of possibility for the utilization of expressions. In spite of this fact, it is possible to see many examples in which possibility expressions represent actual events, and impossibility expressions represent a type of non-actualization in relation to events. This effect can be described as a semantic extension, by which the participant-internal possibility is extended to actualization due to participant-internal factors, and the participant-external possibility is extended to the actualization due to participant-external factors. When the related possibility expressions are used in this extended sense, they express the dynamic evaluative meaning of 'desirability' of the realized event, while it is determined that when the impossibility expressions are used in this extended sense, they are seen to express the evaluative meaning of 'regretfulness' about the non-actualization of the event. In Modern Japanese, it is noted that there are a few expressions of ability and possibility. They can be largely divided into four types of expressions, according to their origins or uses of expression, which are 'ability verbs', affixes '-れる/られる(-reru/rareru)', '-できる(-dekiru)', and '-得る(-eru)'. They can all express participant-internal possibility and participant-external non-deontic possibility. While 'ability verbs', affixes '-れる/られる' and '-できる' can express participant-external deontic possibility, '-得る' cannot. However, '-得る' is the only possible element to designate the event of a epistemic possibility. Also, the four types of expressions have the usage of conveying 'actualization/non-actualization,' as is the case of the Korean language. However in Japanese, in fact adjectives cannot be associated with 'ability verbs' or 'ability affixes.' Thus the expressions of 'regrets' should in that case depend on the use contexts, unlike the expression 'adj+-지 못하다' as noted in Korean. The ability and possibility in Modern Chinese are mainly expressed by means of the four auxiliary verbs '能($n{\acute{e}}ng$)', '会(huì)', '可以(kěyǐ)' and '可能 ($k{\check{e}}n{\acute{e}}ng$)'. '能' and '会' along with '可以' can all convey participant-internal possibility. In this way '能' and '可以' can express participant-external possibility. Only '会' and '可能' can express epistemic possibility. As for 'actualization,' among the four auxiliary verbs, only '能' can represent actualization. Also, among the negatives of the four auxiliary verbs, only '沒能' can represent non-actualization.

Application developers need effective reuseable methodology to meet rapidly changes and variety of users requirements. Product Line and CBD(Component Based Development) offer the great benefits on quality and productivity for developing the software that is mainly associate with reusable architectures and components in a specific domain and rapidly changing environments. Product line can dynamically focus on the commonality and variety feature model among the products. The product line uses the feature modeling for discovering, analyzing, and mediating interactions between products. Reusable architectures include many variety plans and mechanisms. In case of those architecture are use in product version for a long time, It is very important in architecture product line context for product line design phase. Application developer need to identify the proper location of architecture changing for variety expression. It is lack of specific variety managements to design the product line architecture until nowdays. In this paper, we define various variety types to identify the proper location of architecture changing for variety expression and to design the reusable architecture. We also propose architecture variety on feature model and describe variety expression on component relations. We implemented the web learning system based on the methodology. We finally describe how these methodology may assist in increasing the efficiency, reusability, productivity and quality to develop an application. In the future, we are going to apply the methodology into various domain and suggest international and domestic's standardization.

The US Federal Reserve (Fed) has decided to cut interest rates. When we look at the expression of the FOMC statements at the time of policy change period we can understand that Fed has been communicating with markets through a change of word selection. However, there is a criticism that the method of analyzing the expression of the decision sentence through the context can be subjective and limited in qualitative analysis. In this paper, we evaluate the signaling effect of FOMC statements based on previous research. We analyze decision making characteristics from the viewpoint of text mining and try to predict future policy trend changes by capturing changes in expressions between statements. For this purpose, a decision tree and neural network models are used. As a result of the analysis, it can be judged that the discrepancy indicators between statements could be used to predict the policy change in the future and that the US Federal Reserve has systematically implemented policy signaling through the policy statements.

Throughout analyzing and construing the words, contexts, and expressive languages used for depicting the pine tree in the novel "Honbul" written by Choi, Myung-Hee the symbolism of the pine and folksy languages used for scenery can be condensed as written below: First, it is explicit that the scenery-words for illustrating the pine tree in "Honbul" are emerged through diverse means methods and expressions. Namely, the reference forms of the pine tree and the expressive means of utilizing words portrays the use of the pine are various and subdivided. Second, the scenery-words found in vocabularies and the contexts of "Honbul" imply various symbolic representation. They not only perform to describe inherent image and symbolism of the pine, but they work for reifying the image of "Honbul" in the narrative structure in "Honbul" as being intrinsic scenery-word. Third, the scenery-words used for expressing aesthetics emerge as synesthetic expressions through the linear beauty and the texture of the pine as well as through five-senses. Forth, on the basis of the inherent symbolism and the image of the pine, the landscape of the background described in "Honbul" deems as a symbolic backdrop. As with then narrative structure of the novel, the pine tree performs as a mediation of the heaven and the earth, god and man, as well as the sacred and the secular. Fifth, scenery-words used for depicting the pine tree are a symbol that represents the spirit and emotion of the character in the novel. Moreover, it is a tool for pursuing the personification of the nature, the deification of the object, and the cosmos of the space. It is also utilized as a device that definitize the ideational image applied to express the landscape of the background of the novel. As mentioned above, the expressions, vocabularies and textures about pine tree represented from "Honbul" are expected to be the beginning of understanding the landscape-images and landscape-languages of pine in not only the setting for this novels, Namwon but also the entire districts of Korea.

User reviews are valuable information that can be used for various purposes. In particular, the product reviews on online shopping sites are important information which can directly affect the purchasing decision of the customers. In this paper, we present our design and implementation of a system for summarizing the customer's opinion and the features of each product by analyzing reviews on a commercial shopping site. During the analysis process, several natural language processing(NLP) techniques and the semantic dictionary were used. The semantic dictionary contains vocabularies that are used to express product features and customer's opinions. And it was constructed in semi-automatic way with the help of the tool we implemented. Furthermore, we discuss how to handle the vocabularies that have different meanings according to the context. We analyzed 1796 reviews about 20 products of 2 categories collected from an actual shopping site and implemented a novel ranking system. We obtained 88.94% for precision and 47.92% for recall on extracting opinion expression, which means our system can be applicable for real use.
