The paper presents a hybrid mcthod for disambiguation of the verb meaning in the machine translation. The presented verb translation algorithm is to perform the concept-based method and the statistics-based method simultaneously. It uses a collocation dictionary, WordNct and the statistical information extracted from corpus. In the transfer phase of the machine translation, it tries to find the target word of the source verb. If it fails, it refers to Word Net to try to find it by calculating word similarities between the logical constraints of the source sentence and those in the collocation dictionary. At the same time, it refers to the statistical information extracted from corpus to try to find it by calculating co-occurrence similarity knowledge. The experimental result shows that the algorithm performs more accurate verb translation than the other algorithms and improves accuracy of the verb translation by 24.8% compared to the collocation-based method.

As the multimedia information retrieval system is advanced, the study of multimedia information retrieval is changing the method of low-level content based image retrieval to the semantical concept based retrieval. in this paper, we apply the theory of ontology to overcome the conceptual heterogeneity in the annotation based image retrieval. And we solve the some problems that happen when the ontology apply. As a result of our study, we try to apply the domain ontology to settle the conceptual heterogenity. In the experimental result, we knew that the semantic distance among the words is pretty dose when we apply the domain ontology than the wordnet. And in this paper, we show the possibility of the semantic image retrieval as we apply the domain ontology in the annotation based image retrieval.

This paper is a study on context-sensitive spelling error correction and uses the Korean WordNet (KorLex)[1] that defines the relationship between words as a graph to improve the performance of the correction[2] based on the vector information of the word embedded in the correction technique. The Korean WordNet replaced WordNet[3] developed at Princeton University in the United States and was additionally constructed for Korean. In order to learn a semantic network in graph form or to use it for learned vector information, it is necessary to transform it into a vector form by embedding learning. For transformation, we list the nodes (limited number) in a line format like a sentence in a graph in the form of a network before the training input. One of the learning techniques that use this strategy is Deepwalk[4]. DeepWalk is used to learn graphs between words in the Korean WordNet. The graph embedding information is used in concatenation with the word vector information of the learned language model for correction, and the final correction word is determined by the cosine distance value between the vectors. In this paper, In order to test whether the information of graph embedding affects the improvement of the performance of context- sensitive spelling error correction, a confused word pair was constructed and tested from the perspective of Word Sense Disambiguation(WSD). In the experimental results, the average correction performance of all confused word pairs was improved by 2.24% compared to the baseline correction performance.

We implemented a system being able to suggest example sentences for multiple choice tests, considering the level of students. To build the system, we designed an automatic method for sentence generation, which made it possible to control the difficulty degree of questions. For the proper evaluation in the multiple choice tests, proper size of question pools is required. To satisfy this requirement, a system which can generate various and numerous questions and their example sentences in a fast way should be used. In this paper, we designed an automatic generation method using a linguistic resource called WordNet. For the automatic generation, firstly, we extracted keywords from the existing sentences with the morphological analysis and candidate terms with similar meaning to the keywords in Korean WordNet space are suggested. When suggesting candidate terms, we transformed the existing Korean WordNet scheme into a new scheme to construct the concept similarity matrix. The similarity degree between concepts can be ranged from 0, representing synonyms relationships, to 9, representing non-connected relationships. By using the degree, we can control the difficulty degree of newly generated questions. We used two methods for evaluating semantic similarity between two concepts. The first one is considering only the distance between two concepts and the second one additionally considers positions of two concepts in the Korean Wordnet space. With these methods, we can build a system which can help the instructors generate new questions and their example sentences with various contents and difficulty degree from existing sentences more easily.
