본 논문에서는 텍스트에서 개체(entity) 간 관계(relation) 추출 문제에서 의존구문트리를 이용하여 자질을 추출할 때 형용사구 내에 관계가 나타나는 경우의 성능을 향상시키는 방법을 제안한다. 일률적으로 의존구문트리의 최소공동조상(LCA: Least Common Ancestor)을 이용하는 일반적인 방법보다 형용사구가 나타날 때는 형용사구의 술어를 대신 이용하는 것이 더 좋은 자질이 된다는 것을 제안하고 로지스틱 회귀분석, SVM(linear), SVM(exponential kernel)을 이용한 실험들을 통해 그 효과를 확인하였다. 이는 트리커널을 이용한 것과 같이 의존구문트리의 최소공동조상이 주요한 역할을 하는 관계추출 모델들의 성능을 높일 수 있음을 보여 준다. 수행한 실험 과정을 통해 관계추출 데이터 셋에서 형용사구 내 관계를 포함하는 문장이 전체에서 차지하는 비율이 낮을 경우 생길 수 있는 문제를 추가적으로 얻을 수 있었다.

Like English, Korean employs several complicated types of cleft constructions. This paper deals with two main types of Korean cleft constructions: predicational and identificational. It first reviews the formal properties of these two types and then provides a constraint-based analysis that can be computationally implemented. In particular, the paper assumes two types of noun KES (one as a common noun and the other as a bound noun) and treats the argument-gapped cleft clause similar to relative clauses while treating the adjunct-gapped cleft clause as a noun-complement construction. The paper further shows that the cleft constructions are closely linked to the copula constructions, sharing many common properties while having their own constructional constraints.

In this paper I discuss two markers for specificity, etten and han, in Korean. First, I discuss their structural properties and claim that etten is a determiner, and han is a numeral preceded by an implicit existential quantifier. Then I discuss four uses of etten and two uses of han, and show when they are used as specificity markers. There are various properties of the two specificity markers, some of which they have in common. I take them as properties of specificity markers in general. The properties only one of them has are taken to come from the original meanings of the two morphemes. I claim that specific indefinites range over individual concepts, which lead to the properties they have in common.

본 논문에서는 한글(한국어) ascii 코드와 4가지 한글 표현 원리에 만들어지는 한글음절을 정의한다. Common Lisp(CL)의 확장된 버전으로 한글이 사용 가능한 한글 CL(HCL)의 소개하고 CL에 추가되는 새로운 한글 함수에 대하여 설명한다. HCL의 모든 함수는 한글을 다루는 방법에 따라 4가지 타입으로 나뉘어진다. 1) 타입 0 - 한글을 입출력 값으로 취하지 않는 전형적인 CL 함수, 2) 타입 1 - 원래 CL 함수정의의 변경없이 입력으로 한글을 받아들이는 함수, 3) 타입 2 - 한글을 사용하기 위하여 함수의 정의를 확장해야하는 CL 함수, 4) 타입 3 - 한글 처리를 하기 위하여 새로 설계한 새로운 함수. 위의 타입에 의해 분류되는 각 함수에 대한 정의를 제안하고 한글 편집기에 대하여 소개한다.

This study discusses Korean speech database that has been designed and constructed for common use, especially focusing on designing a list of words or sentences that covers various phonological environments. As the results, PBW(Phonetically Balanced words) and PBS(Phonetically Balanced Sentences) was selected from balanced text corpus using maximum entropy method. And, implemented workbench for spoken language data acquisition is presented in this paper. The workbench consists of grapheme to phoneme converter, utterance list selection module, speech data editing module, multi-layer labelling module, and phoneme context search module.

To avoid calamities, the Chinese use different euphemisms in various fields of occupation and region. There are a lot of linguistic taboos concerned with Xieyin that shows the special characteristic of chinese characters. If two characters are homophones and one of them is considered offensive or misfortune, the Chinese prefer to substitute another expression for them in the actual conversations. These substitutes are called euphemisms. As an combined expression of psychological insecurity and language, euphemisms were not only used in the past, but also now they are still in common use. Although some of the chinese euphemisms are not used anymore nowadays, some of them are still used. There are a large number of chinese euphemisms in common use, but some special ones are used in particular fields only. This article focused on the linguistic taboos in some special fields like different regions, occupations and some others related with calamities, and tried to make a distinction from other previous studies. Language reflects culture and euphemism is a mirror of culture. The study of chinese linguistic taboos and euphemisms is expected to be some help to understand the chinese customs and linguistic features.

Abusive behaviors have become a common issue in many online social media platforms. Profanity is common form of abusive behavior in online. Social media platforms operate the filtering system using popular profanity words lists, but this method has drawbacks that it can be bypassed using an altered form and it can detect normal sentences as profanity. Especially in Korean language, the syllable is composed of graphemes and words are composed of multiple syllables, it can be decomposed into graphemes without impairing the transmission of meaning, and the form of a profane word can be seen as a different meaning in a sentence. This work focuses on the problem of filtering system mis-detecting normal phrases with profane phrases. For that, we proposed the deep learning-based framework including grapheme and syllable separation-based word embedding and appropriate CNN structure. The proposed model was evaluated on the chatting contents from the one of the famous online games in South Korea and generated 90.4% accuracy.

This study investigates the common perception of the use of preliminary language rehabilitation as a basic study to demonstrate the usefulness of media utilisation in language therapy. Based on the previous research, data were collected for 150 preliminary language rehabilitation workers and 142 questionnaires were used for data analysis. The study found that the perception of media usage in pre-language rehabilitation was necessary for language development and was also positive about the treatment. The use of media has been recognised as helpful in promoting attention, cognitive and creativity development. Also, the use of media as a treatment tool was agreed to, but it was recognized that the rules for utilizing the media were necessary and needed to know the proper site or program. Therefore, it was suggested that the development of sites and programs that can be used for language therapy is necessary.

This study identities various types of subjective perception of hearing-impaired persons on sign language interpretation using Q-methodology in an attempt to explore ways for developing more useful sign language interpretation services for them. For this purpose, 35 statements are extracted based on literatures and in-depth interviews and Q-classification is conducted for 20 interviewees. The results identify a common perception on the provision of sign language interpreter to frequently used institutions of hearing-impaired persons. They also derive three distinguished types of perception: seeking specialization of sign language interpretation, seeking traditional sign language interpretation services and seeking expansion and improvement of sign language interpretation services. Based on the results, the study suggests residence of sign language interpreters in public facilities, improvements of qualification system and education and training courses, specialization by field and improvement of the practice of sign language interpretation services, provision of customized services to the elderly and use of sign language interpreters reflecting the needs of the users.

This study questions the validity of Crosslinguistic Influence (CLI) in EFL Learning. A ten-minute grammaticality judgement test involving resumptive pronouns in English relative clauses was given to 15 female subjects. The research results, which were analysed in terns of language transfer and universalist arguments, support the existence of a universal process that guides L2 learning, and some common developmental patterns between the two processes of L1 and L2 learning. Hence, the universalist view should be given at least equal Weight as the CLI approach.
