This paper presents a FSN-based LVCSR system and it's application to the speech TV program guide. Unlike the most popular statistical language model-based system, we used FSN grammar based on the graph theory-based FSN optimization algorithm and knowledge-based advanced word boundary modeling. For the memory and latency efficiency, we implemented the dynamic pruning scheduling based on the histogram of active words and their likelihood distribution. We achieved a 10.7% word accuracy improvement with 57.3% speedup.

When writing English essays, non-English-speaking people will often encounter the problems such as lack of vocabulary, difficulties of expressing their ideas. To solve such problems, we designed an aiding system for English essay writing. While users are writing essays using this system, system will automatically offer words and phrases prompts according to what the users have typed in. For users in different research areas, we designed 71 different prompt knowledge bases. The evaluation result shows that the system effectively helps non-English-speaking authors express their ideas more spontaneously.

This paper describes how a domain dependent pronunciation lexicon is generated and optimized for Korean large vocabulary continuous speech recognition(LVCSR). At the level of lexicon, pronunciation variations are usually modeled by adding pronunciation variants to the lexicon. We propose the criteria for selecting appropriate pronunciation variants in lexicon: (i) likelihood and (ii) frequency factors to select variants. Our experiment is conducted in three steps. First, the variants are generated with knowledge-based rules. Second, we generate a domain dependent lexicon which includes various numbers of pronunciation variants based on the proposed criteria. Finally, the WERs and RTFs are examined with each lexicon. In the experiment, 0.72% WER reduction is obtained by introducing the variants pruning criteria. Furthermore, RTF is not deteriorated although the average number of variants is higher than that of compared lexica.

시맨틱 웹과 에이전트 시스템을 위한 지식 기반(Knowledge Base)을 구축하기 위해 W3C의 RDF와 ISO의 토픽맵(Topic Maps)이 사용되고 있다. 이 두 표준은 표현력 상에서 중복되는 부분이 많음에도 불구하고 서로 다른 방면을 추구하였지만, 최근 W3C에서는 Task Force 팀을 구성하여 둘 사이의 상호운용성을 확보하려는 시도를 보이고 있다. 이에 따라 단순히 자원에 대한 메타 데이터를 구축하는 RDF에 semantic을 부여하는 RDF Vocabulary인 OWL과 토픽맵 간의 상호운용도 관심을 받기 시작하였다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 OWL과 토픽맵의 상호운용 가능성을 확인하기 위해 두 표준을 지원하는 각 저작 도구를 활용하여 표현력과 기능적 비교를 수행하고 이를 통하여 둘 사이에 어떠한 차이점이 있는가와 기능적인 극복을 위한 대안을 제시한다.

Having a firm grasp of technical terms is essential for learners of Japanese for Specific Purposes (JSP). This research aims to analyze Japanese nursing care vocabulary based on objective corpus-based frequency and subjectively rated word familiarity. For this purpose, we constructed a text corpus centered on the National Examination for Certified Care Workers to extract nursing care keywords. The Log-Likelihood Ratio (LLR) was used as the statistical criterion for keyword identification, giving a list of 300 keywords as target words for a further word recognition survey. The survey involved 115 participants of whom 51 were certified care workers (CW group) and 64 were individuals from the general public (GP group). These participants rated the familiarity of the target keywords through crowdsourcing. Given the limited sample size, Bayesian linear mixed models were utilized to determine word familiarity rates. Our study conducted a comparative analysis of word familiarity between the CW group and the GP group, revealing key terms that are crucial for professionals but potentially unfamiliar to the general public. By focusing on these terms, instructors can bridge the knowledge gap more efficiently.

본 연구는 도서관 장서의 분류를 위하여 기존의 문헌 분류체계 대신 주제어 기반의 분류를 적용하고자 할 때 필수적인 주제명 개발의 필요성을 논하고, 개발 방법론의 하나로 기존의 다양한 지식조직체계의 주제어를 활용하는 방법의 가능성을 모색하는데 목적이 있다. 이를 위하여 분석 대상 저작을 선정하고 이에 대하여 부여된 문헌분류, 주제명표목, 국내외 대형 서점의 분류, 서가명 및 주제어, 이용자 태그 등 다양한 지식조직체계의 주제어를 수집하여 그 특성을 비교 분석하였다. 이러한 분석의 결과, 전통적인 도서관 중심의 지식조직체계와 상업성이 중심이 되는 지식조직체계의 성격과 범주화의 방식이 다름을 확인할 수 있었다. 한편, 이용자 태그는 최상위 빈도수의 태그인 경우 전통적인 지식조직체계 및 상업적 영역의 지식조직체계와 어휘의 측면에서 거의 차이가 없는 결과를 나타냈으나, 이용자 중심의 주제어로서 독특한 특성을 가지고 있음을 파악하였다. 이러한 분석을 바탕으로 분류를 대체하는 주제명 작성을 위해 기존의 지식조직체계를 활용할 때 고려해야 할 각각의 특성 및 상호 관계를 분석하였고, 국내에서의 적용을 위한 실질적인 고려사항을 제안하였다.

Listening comprehension can be defined as a process of an integrative, positive and creative activity through which listeners get the message of speakers' production using linguistic or non-linguistic redundancy as well as linguistic or non-linguistic knowledge. Compared with reading comprehension, it has many difficulties especially for foreigners. while it can be transferred to the other skills: speaking, reading, writing. With this said, listening comprehension can be taught effectively using the following teaching strategies. First. systematic and intensive instruction of segmental phonemes, suprasegmental phonemes and sound changes must be given to remove the difficulties of listening comprehension concerned with the identification of sounds. Second, vocabulary drill through various games and other activities is absolutely needed until words can be unconsciously recognized. Without this, comprehension is almost impossible. Third, instruction of sentence structures is thought to be essential considering grammar is supplementary to listening comprehension and reading comprehension for academic purpose. So grammar translation drills, mechanical drills, meaningful drills and communicative drills should be performed in succession with common or frequently used structures. Fourth, listening activities for overall comprehension should teach how to receive overall meaning of intended messages intact. Linguists and literatures have listed some specific activities as follows: Total Physical Response, dictation, role playing, singing songs, selective listening, picture recognition, list activities, completion, prediction, true or false choice, multiple choice, seeking of specific information, summarizing, problem-solving and decision-making, recognization of relationships between speakers, recognition of mood, attitude and behavior of speakers.

Index is a systematic guide to items contained in, or concepts derived from, a collection, Thus, it is represented as a paired set of index terms (t) and documents (D) : I= {(t,D) vertical bar t .mem. V, D .mem. W), where V is index vocabulary and W is document collection. Indexing is the process of analysing the informational content of records of knowledge and expressing the informational content in the language of the indexing system. It involves: 1) Selecting indexable concepts in a document; and 2) expressing these concepts in the language of the indexing system (as index entries): and an ordered list. Indexing process involves technical, semantic and syntactic problems. Technical problems are related to the accuracy of indexing, which is primarily governed by the indexer's ability of analysing subject, identifying indexable concepts, and coding. The proper levels of indexing exhaustivity, and index language specificity are also significant factors affecting the quality of index. Semantic problems are related to the choice of index terms and the form in which they should be used. Equivalent, hierarchical and affinitive/associative relationships of index terms are involved. Syntactic problems are largely related to the coordination of index terms. This process of coordination arises from the need to be able to search for the intersection of two or more classes defined by terms denoting distinct concepts. Finally, most valuable aspects of alphabetical subject indexing theories and practices are derived from those of Cutter, Kaiser, Ranganathan, Coates, Lynch and Austin, and discussed in details.

For the learners of English as a foreign language, oral repetition of model sentences is an e essential practice to improve their listening and speaking abilities of English. Skill training of both speech perception and production is involved in this practice. This paper reports on an observation of production e$\pi$ors in such practice made by Japanese college students in my class. The teaching material used is intended for acquainting the learners with basic English rhythm and intonation p patterns. The students were required to repeat each sentence in a series of conversations after a model reading. Although the vocabulary and expressions were rather limited, I monitored different kinds of errors in their repetition. Putting aside intonation, their difficulties are classified into five types; 1. Omission of words or morphemes, 2. Addition of unnecessary words or morphemes, 3. Replacement of words, 4. Japanization of English sounds, 5. Wrong rhythm caused by improper stress assignment. Accurate listening, especially to weakly stressed syllables and to assimilated sounds, as has often been pointed out, is the most difficult part in perception for them. Japanese sound system interferes in production of English sounds. More often than not their knowledge of grammar or the context does not work at all to guess the words they are hearing

Individuals rely on Theory of Mind (ToM) to represent themselves, others, and socio-cultural norms. Distinctive Western and Eastern developmental patterns of ToM have been reported in monocultural children. Relatively little is known about bicultural children, especially those children who grow up in two conflicting and unbalanced cultures. We hypothesized that the development of ToM in these bicultural preschoolers would follow the pattern of the dominant culture. To examine this hypothesis, we recruited English-speaking Chinese Singaporean preschoolers. In Study 1, we tested 3- to 5-year-olds (N = 120) with 5 ToM tasks, including diverse desires, diverse beliefs, knowledge access, and false belief, as well as a vocabulary task. In Study 2, we tested 5-year-olds (N = 30) with a picture-choice version of these ToM tasks. Both studies supported our hypothesis by revealing that the development of ToM in these bicultural children followed the pattern of the dominant culture. Additionally, we found that 5-year-old bicultural children are still developing false belief, and their verbal ability correlated with their ToM.
