This study focused on the comprehension of texts written either in Korean script (Hangul) or Chinese script (Hanja). For this purpose, we measured the reading time and the correct response in text comprehension tasks with 104 Korean-Chinese children who were either 10 or 19 years old. There was a main effect of script : The reading time of Hanja texts was shorter than that of Hangul or Hangul Hanja mixed texts. But the older subjects who spent the same reading time in both Hangul and Hanja texts showed the longer reading time in Hangul Hanja mixed texts revealing the interaction between age and script. The correct response rate on the comprehension task was the highest in Hangul text. The results were discussed in relation to the independent dual language processing systems in Korean-Chinese.

In this paper, we implement a gigabyte Hangul text retrieval engine HMG(Hangul MG) which is based on the English text retrieval engine MG(Managing Gigabytes) and the Hangul lexical analyzer HAM(Hangul Analysis Module). To support Hangul information, we use the KSC 5601 code in the database construction and query processing stages. The lexical analyzer, parser, and index construction module of the MG system are modified to support Hangul information. To show the usefulness of HMG system, we implemented a NOD(Novel On Demand) system supporting the retrieval of Hangul novels on the WWW. The proposed system HMG can be utilized in the construction of massive full-text information retrieval systems supporting Hangul.

With a rapid extension of functions in mobile phones, text input method has become very important for mobile phone users. Previous studies for text input methods were focused on Fitts' law, emphasizing expert's behaviors with one-handed text input method. However, it was observed that 97% of Korean mobile phone users input texts with two-hands. Therefore, this study was designed to develop a prediction model of two-handed Hangul text entry method including novice users as well as experts for mobile phone. For this study, Fitts' law was hypothesized to predict experts' movement time(MT) whereas Hick-Hyman law for visual search time was hypothesized to be added to MT for novices. The results showed that the prediction model was well fitted with the empirical data for both experts and novices with less than 3% error rates. In conclusion, this prediction model of two-handed Hangul text entry including novice users was proven to be a very effective model for modeling two-handed Hangul text input behavior for both experts.

To achieve high compression ratio for Hangul texts, in this paper two text compression algorithms which use the structural feature of Hangul, the frequency of postpositional words, are proposed. The performances of these proposed algorithms are also compared with previous text compression algorithms. The proposed compression algorithms named HLZ77 and HLZW come out from the modification of previous algorithms LZ77 and :ZW, respectively. The major distinction of the proposed ones is that the proposed algorithms use the fixed dictionary of selected postpositional words that appear most frequently in Hangul texts. The performances of HLZ77 and HLZW also are compared with those of LZ77 and LZW, respectively, with respect to the compression ratio. According to the result of performance study, the proposed algorithms are better than the previous algorithms for descriptive Hangul text snce the structural feature of Hangul is helpful to achievement of high compression ratio.

In the Digital Age, All Data used in the Internet is Digitized and Transmitted and Received Over a Communications Network. Therefore, it is Important to Transmit Data with Confidentiality and Integrity, Since Digital Data may be Tampered with and Tampered by Illegal users. Steganography is an Efficient Method for Ensuring Confidentiality and Integrity Together with Encryption Techniques. I Propose a Hangul Steganography Method that Inserts a Secret Message based on a Changing Insertion Position and a Changing Eojeol Size in a Cover Medium. Considering the Insertion Capacity of 3.35% and the File Size Change of 0.4% in Hangul Text Steganography, Experimental Results Show that the Jaro_score Value needs to be Maintained at 0.946.

There are many Hangul input systems to input Korean letter on computer or smart phone. However, the existing systems need to be required more efforts to modify the already inputted letters. This research suggests the Hangul letter modification method which can modify letter effectively based on reusing the alphabets previously inputted. The Hangul modification system using "Jamo Modification Window" follows the composition principle of Hangul, and utilize the already inputted alphabets. It can be applicable to the existing input system without any modification using only "Jamo Modification Window". Especially, this system is very useful on smart phone with small screen.

An interactive Hangul input method using the numeric phone keypad, which is applicable for mobile devices is introduced. In the proposed method, user only selects the corresponding keys by single tapping, for the alphabet of Korean letter which is desired to enter. The interface generates the subset of eligible letters for the key sequence, then the user selects the desired letter in the set. Such an interactive approach transforms the text entry interface into a multi-level interactive letter-oriented style, from the preexisting passive and single-level alphabet-oriented interface. The annoyance of key-operations, the major disadvantage of the previous methods, derived from multi-tap to clear the ambiguity of multi-assigned alphabets for the Hangul automata, can be eliminated permanently, while the additional letter selection procedure to finalize the desired letter is essential. Also the complexity of Hangul text entry is reduced since all letters can be compounded from basic alphabet selection of the writing sequence order. The advantage and disadvantage of the proposed method are analyzed through comparing with pre-existing method by experiments.

This paper proposes a method to recognize vowels and consonants in a handwritten Hangul text, in which the sizes of chracters and the spaces between characters are not uniform. In this method, all characters in the thinned image of a handwritten Hangul text are transformed into strokes, and the attributes which represent the relations between strokes are extracted from these strokes, and the attributes which represent the relations between strokes are extracted from these strokes. The vowels and consonants are recognized by applying attributed grammars to the strokes and attributes.

In this paper, we propose the possibility of introducing chaotic sequences into digital watermarking systems as potential substitutes to commonly used pseudo noise sequences. Chaotic sequences have several good properties including the availability of a great number of them, the ease of their generation, as well as their sensitive dependence on their initial conditions. And the quantization does not destroy the good property. So this paper proposes a method that transforms Hangul text to chaotic sequence. And we presents how the Hangul text is expressed by an implied data and the implied data is regenerated into the original text. In this paper, we use this implied Hangul text for watermarking.
