A chatbot is an interactive assistant that utilizes many communication modes: voice, images, video, or text. It is an artificial intelligence-based application that responds to users' needs or solves problems during user-friendly conversation. However, the current version of the chatbot is focused on understanding and performing tasks requested by the user; its ability to generate personalized conversation suitable for relationship-building is limited. Recognizing the need to build a relationship and making suitable conversation is more important for social chatbots who require social skills similar to those of problem-solving chatbots like the intelligent personal assistant. The purpose of this study is to propose a text analysis method that evaluates relationships between chatbots and users based on content input by the user and adapted to the communication situation, enabling the chatbot to conduct suitable conversations. To evaluate the performance of this method, we examined learning and verified the results using actual SNS conversation records. The results of the analysis will aid in implementation of the social chatbot, as this method yields excellent results even when the private profile information of the user is excluded for privacy reasons.

최근 자연어 처리 기술에 대한 중요도가 높아지고, 발전 속도가 빨라지면서, 산업 전반에 걸쳐 챗봇에 대한 수요가 증가하고 있다. 본 논문은 챗봇을 이용한 소셜 매거진 생성 및 배포, 그리고 이를 활용하여 사용자에게 텍스트를 음성으로 변환하여 동영상의 형태로 전달해 주는 시스템을 다루고 있다. 챗봇이 사용자 대화를 수집, 분석하여 상황에 맞는 키워드를 추출하고, 중복 콘텐츠 제거, 텍스트 요약 등 일련의 과정을 거쳐 소셜 매거진을 생성 및 배포하는 서비스와, 매거진의 각 콘텐츠를 구성하는 이미지, 텍스트 정보를 가지고 음성 합성, 자막 생성, 영상 효과 등을 이용하여 영상을 합성하는 서비스에 관한 것이다. 본 논문에서 제안한 시스템에 대한 성능은 실험을 통하여 검증하였다.

Influenced by a culture that prefers non-face-to-face activity during the COVID-19 pandemic, chatbot usage is accelerating. Chatbots have been used for various purposes, not only for customer service in businesses and social conversations for fun but also for mental health. Chatbots are a platform where users can easily talk about their depressed moods because anonymity is guaranteed. However, most relevant research has been on social media data, especially Twitter data, and few studies have analyzed the commercially used chatbots data. In this study, we identified the characteristics of depressive discourse in user-chatbot interaction data by analyzing the chats, including the word 'depress,' using the topic modeling algorithm and the text-mining technique. Moreover, we compared its characteristics with those of the depressive moods in the Twitter data. Finally, we draw several design guidelines and suggest avenues for future research based on the study findings.

Recently, in various business fields, companies are concentrating on providing chatbot services to various environments by adding artificial intelligence to existing messenger platforms. Organizations in the field of job placement also require chatbot services to improve the quality of employment counseling services and to solve the problem of agent management. A text-based general chatbot classifies input user sentences into learned sentences and provides appropriate answers to users. Recently, user sentences inputted to chatbots are inputted as short texts due to the activation of social network services. Therefore, performance improvement of short text classification can contribute to improvement of chatbot service performance. In this paper, we propose T-EBOW (Translation-Extended Bag Of Words), which is a method to add translation information as well as concept information of existing researches in order to strengthen the short text classification for employment chatbot. The performance evaluation results of the T-EBOW applied to the machine learning classification model are superior to those of the conventional method.

ChatGPT, as a representative chatbot leveraging generative artificial intelligence technology, is used valuable not only in scientific and technological domains but also across diverse sectors such as society, economy, industry, and culture. This study conducts an explorative analysis of user sentiments and needs for ChatGPT by examining global social media discourse on Reddit. We collected 10,796 comments on Reddit from December 2022 to August 2023 and then employed keyword analysis, sentiment analysis, and need-mining-based topic modeling to derive insights. The analysis reveals several key findings. The most frequently mentioned term in ChatGPT-related comments is "time," indicative of users' emphasis on prompt responses, time efficiency, and enhanced productivity. Users express sentiments of trust and anticipation in ChatGPT, yet simultaneously articulate concerns and frustrations regarding its societal impact, including fears and anger. In addition, the topic modeling analysis identifies 14 topics, shedding light on potential user needs. Notably, users exhibit a keen interest in the educational applications of ChatGPT and its societal implications. Moreover, our investigation uncovers various user-driven topics related to ChatGPT, encompassing language models, jobs, information retrieval, healthcare applications, services, gaming, regulations, energy, and ethical concerns. In conclusion, this analysis provides insights into user perspectives, emphasizing the significance of understanding and addressing user needs. The identified application directions offer valuable guidance for enhancing existing products and services or planning the development of new service platforms.
