In indexing and organizing Web resources, there have been two basic methods: automatic indexing by extracting key words and library classification schemes or subject directories of search engines. But, both methods have failed to satisfy the user's information needs, due to the lack of standard criteria and the irrationality of its structural system. In this paper I have examined the limits of library classification scheme's structures and the problems related to the nature of Web resources such as specificity and exhaustivity. I have also attempted to explain the logicality of Web resources organization by facet analysis and its strengths and limitations. In so doing, I have proposed three specific methods in using facet analysis: firstly, indexing system by facet analysis; secondly, the alternative transformation of the enumerative classification scheme into facet classification scheme; and finally, the facet model of subject directory of domestic search engine. After examining the three methods, my study concludes that a controlled vocabulary by facet analysis can be employed as a useful method in organizing Web resources.

This paper describes a large-vocabulary continuous speech recognition system using continuous hidden Markov models for the Korean language. To improve the performance of the system, we study on the selection of speech modeling units, inter-word modeling, search algorithm, and grammars. We used triphones as basic speech modeling units, generalized triphones and function word-dependent phones are used to improve the trainability of speech units and to reduce errors in function words. Silence between words is optionally inserted by using a silence model and a null transition. Word pair grammar and bigram model based oil word classes are used. Also we implement a search algorithm to find N-best candidate sentences. A postprocessor reorders the N-best sentences using word triple grammar, selects the most likely sentence as the final recognition result, and finally corrects trivial errors related with postpositions. In recognition tests using a 3,000-word continuous speech database, the system attained $93.1\%$ word recognition accuracy and $73.8\%$ sentence recognition accuracy using word triple grammar in postprocessing.

Since users who search maps conduct their searching using the name they already know or is commonly called rather than formal name of a specific place, they tend to fail to find their destination. In addition, in typical web map service in terms of spatial searching of map. Location information of unintended place can be provided because when spatial searching is conducted with the vocabulary 'nearby' and 'in the vicinity', location exceeding 2 km from the current location is searched altogether as well. In this research, spatial range that human can perceive is calculated by extracting POI date with the usage of twitter data of SNS, constructing spatial relations with existing POI, which is already constructed. As a result, various place names acquired could be utilized as different names of existing POI data and it is expected that new POI data would contribute to select places for constructing POI data by utilizing to recognize places having lots of POI variation. Besides, we also expect efficient spatial searching be conducted using diverse spatial vocabulary which can be used in spatial searching and spatial range that human can perceive.

A digital archive is an online platform for preserving and utilizing digital records worthy of continued preservation. However, there are no shared standards for functionality, metadata, or data technical principles across digital archives in Korea. These issues create challenges in linking distributed digital records. This study proposes a common vocabulary for digital archives to enhance the interoperability of digital records and evaluates the interoperability of the digital archive built with the common vocabulary. We collect and analyze data from the digital archive on the Korean financial crisis of 1997 to construct a knowledge graph and compare its interoperability with the knowledge graph built with RiC-O. The archive and the knowledge graph underwent evaluation using the FAIR data principles evaluation framework. The constructed knowledge graph links various objects in the archive and provides contextual information to aid in understanding the archive. The results demonstrate that a knowledge graph built with a common vocabulary significantly improves the linkage, search, and interoperability of digital records compared to a traditional archive.

This paper is a study on the korean broadcasting speech recognition. Here we present the methods for the large vocabuary continuous speech recognition. Our main concerns are the language modeling and the search algorithm. The used acoustic model is the uni-phone semi-continuous hidden markov model and the used linguistic model is the N-gram model. The search algorithm consist of three phases in order to utilize all available acoustic and linguistic information. First, we use the forward Viterbi beam search to find word end frames and to estimate related scores. Second, we use the backword Viterbi beam search to find word begin frames and to estimate related scores. Finally, we use A/sup */ search to combine the above two results with the N-grams language model and to get recognition results. Using these methods maximum 96.0% word recognition rate and 99.2% syllable recognition rate are achieved for the speaker-independent continuous speech recognition problem with about 12,000 vocabulary size.

In the current Internet environment where there is high space complexity of information, search engines aim to provide accurate information that users want. But content-based method adopted by most of search engines cannot be used as an effective tool in the current Internet environment. As content-based method gives different weights to each web page using morphological characteristics of vocabulary, the method has its drawbacks of not being effective in distinguishing each web page. To resolve this problem and provide useful information to the users, this paper proposes an evaluation method based on categories. Category-based evaluation method is to extend query to semantic relations and measure the similarity to web pages. In applying weighting to web pages, category-based evaluation method utilizes user response to web page retrieval and categories of query and thus better distinguish web pages. The method proposed in this paper has the advantage of being able to effectively provide the information users want through search engines and the utility of category-based evaluation technique has been confirmed through various experiments.

Although traditional printed materials m indexed and abstracted by human beings with tools like thesaurus or controlled vocabulary, information resources on World Wide Web(WWW) are automatically indexed and abstracted without human beings efforts. It would be useful to investigate what major differences are in processes and in elements of indexing and abstracting between traditional printed materials and information resources on WWW. After discussing how WWW search engines work, six major WWW search engines were chosen for this study. Then, 17 indexing elements, 11 abstracting elements, and 2 meta elements were examined. Overall trends and issues for the future development of indexing and abstracting on WWW are also discussed.

This paper reports the current status of development of the Korean speech recognition platform (ECHOS). We implement new modules including ETSI feature extraction, backward search with trigram, and utterance verification. The ETSI feature extraction module is implemented by converting the public software to an object-oriented program. We show that trigram language modeling in the backward search pass reduces the word error rate from 23.5% to 22% on a large vocabulary continuous speech recognition task. We confirm the utterance verification module by examining word graphs with confidence score.

Bibliographical Description for Revolutionary Historical Archives is created to describe records at the item level. It defines descriptive elements, punctuations, formats and methods. Descriptive elements are composed of 20 elements, each of which is either mandatory or optional. Mandatory elements are: repositories codes, documents codes, dates, creators, title, classification codes, and subject vocabularies. Abstracts were previously included in card cataloging and are removed in the computerized system. New elements, such as "uncontrolled vocabularies," "name of places," "personal names," "organizational structures" and "meetings," are added to allow keyword search. Considering that subject vocabulary searches are the most important in computerized systems, however, Guidelines for the Subject Indexing for Revolutionary Historical Archives as well as Subject Headings, as a result from the Guidelines, are created. The most extraordinary features in Chinese archival description are said to be the Guidelines for the Classification Indexing for Revolutionary Historical Archives and Materials as well as the Classification Scheme, both of which are created to allow subject search of records content. It is because Chinese practice of records management distinguishes the classification for arrangement from that for retrieval. Chinese archival description is, therefore, composed of bibliographic description rules, subject headings, and the classification scheme for retrieval.

Information need has been one of the main motivations for a person using a search engine. Queries can represent very different information needs. Ironically, a query can be a poor representation of the information need because the user can find it difficult to express the information need. Query Expansion (QE) is being popularly used to address this limitation. While QE can be considered as a language-independent technique, recent findings have shown that in certain cases, language plays an important role. Arabic is a language with a particularly large vocabulary rich in words with synonymous shades of meaning and has high morphological complexity. This paper, therefore, provides a review on QE for Arabic information retrieval, the intention being to identify the recent state-of-the-art of this burgeoning area. In this review, we primarily discuss statistical QE approaches that include document analysis, search, browse log analyses, and web knowledge analyses, in addition to the semantic QE approaches, which use semantic knowledge structures to extract meaningful word relationships. Finally, our conclusion is that QE regarding the Arabic language is subjected to additional investigation and research due to the intricate nature of this language.
