단어 인지과정은 언어 이해과정의 한 부분으로, 신속성과 정확성 그리고 심성어휘집을 그 특정으로 한다. 표기 단어의 인지과정에는 그 언어의 정서법 체계가 반영된다. 한국어의 단어 인지과정에 대한 모델 작성의 예비 연구로 음운적 처리와 어휘 근접에서의 정서법적 정보의 역활에 대해 검토하였다. 어휘 근접의 단위에 대한 논의에서는 음절, 자질, 단어등의 형식적 언어학적 단위외에 심리적 단위가 고려되어야 함이 지적되었으며, 그 심리적 단위들과 정서법의 관계에 대해 논의하였다. 마지막으로 한글 단어 인지과정에 관한 한 모델로서 상호작용 활성화 모델의 가능성에 주목하였다.

최근 온라인 게임 산업이 커짐에 따라 이를 즐기는 유저도 급증하고 있다. 온라인 게임에서는 일반적으로 유저들이 서로를 구분하기 위해 사용하는 사용자 이름과 상호간 의사소통을 하기 위한 채팅을 지원한다. 유저의 수가 증가함에 따라 대화의 양은 더욱 더 많아지고, 선정성, 폭력성을 띄는 언어의 문제로 이어지고 있다. 이는 특히 18세 이하도 이용가능한 게임을 만드는 경우 더욱 중요하다. 하지만 대부분의 게임들이 금지어 리스트에 따른 단어 매칭방식의 비속어 필터링만을 제공하고 있다. 이러한 방법은 금지어로 지정된 단어를 포함한 정상적인 채팅도 막을 뿐만 아니라 일부 음절을 다른 기호로 바꾸어 표기한 비속어는 걸러내지 못한다. 변형된 단어들을 충분히 처리하지 못한다면 비속어 필터링 시스템은 단지 무력하고 쓸모없는 존재가 될 뿐이다. 본 논문에서는 SVM을 이용하여 학습이 가능한 비속어 필터링 시스템을 제안하고자 한다. SVM을 이용하면 사용자 편의성을 해치지 않고서도 보다 많은 종류의 비속어들을 효과적으로 걸러낼 수 있다.

The accurate estimation of segmental duration is crucial for natural-sounding text-to-speech synthesis. For predicting Korean segmental durations, conventional methods utilized phonemic context, part-of-speech context and locational information in prosodic phrase. In this paper, the tonal information of phonemes is employed for more accurate prediction. After defining two non-boundary tones and six boundary tones, we annotated the tonal label on each syllable of 400 sentences. To predict segmental duration using tonal information, we constructed neural networks with a real-valued output node predicting phonemic duration and trained them by backpropagation algorithm. Experimental results showed that the proposed features are effective for predicting Korean segmental durations, and we got 0.863 correlation coefficient of the observed durations and predicted ones.

The purpose of this work is to know the validity of a new stimulation method in cognitive functional imaging using custom-designed images correspond to words or syllables improving the shortcomings of existing method using text. From March 2011 to May five Subjects in need of language related functional MRI scanning were selected and both of text stimulating method and image stimulating method sacanning were carried out three times each. Using 3.0T Philps MRI machine and Invivo Co's Eloquence system, data acquisition was performed with EPI-BOLD technique. Post processing was performed with SPM 99 while the activated signals were determined within 95 percent confidence level.The number of activation clusters and the activation ratio inside ROI were compared. As as result, all of the subject showed activation inside Broca area but it did not have statistical significance. In conclusion, the image sitimulation method has potential because image itself is a common means of recognition and it can be recognised easily even if there language barrier. This stimulation method can be applied to replacing the exising scanning method especially in the elderly, infants, foerigners who may not fully understand about the examination.

In this thesis, Improvisation of Jazz Vocal that can be characterized as Jazz music, namely practice of Scat suggest that way of applied approach that root position of chord and chord tones. Scat plays a solo using reproduced tunes of meaningless scat syllable that is not use the lyrics and melodies, which are written in a score. For this, Using the root position of chord is a reference point that Jazz vocal constructs a musical melody. Singing person can develop that reference point from simple scat to develop increasingly complex scat and can express that musical expression and communion. It analyzed the music functionally with a standard Jazz music 'All of me' as the center from composition of chord tone that improvise song to bass line, bass scat, analysis of chord tones arpeggio and expression. In this thesis, the improvisation of a Jazz vocal that may seem somewhat abstruse and complex could be relatively easy to construct through a gradual approach.

This study focuses on a review of Hangeul orthography guidelines in Korean language regulations. It is indispensable to revise the guidelines thoroughly because it has been more than 80 years since a unified plan of Korean orthography was established in 1933, which the current orthography is based on. Also, it has been approximately 30 years since 1989, when the current guidelines were issued and promulgated. The viewpoint towards this review reflects the requirements by education fields of Korean as a foreign language and modern Korean users. Hangeul orthography consists of six clauses, along with an appendix regarding punctuation marks: 1) general rules, 2) consonants and vowels, 3) related to sounds, 4) about forms, 5) spacing between words, and 6) miscellaneous. This paper examined individual clauses and specific usages of the clauses, in terms of Korean as a foreign language. Based on the review, this paper suggests the following tasks in order to establish a draft of Hangeul orthography for foreigners. A. Among the individual clauses, some clauses that embody vocabulary education aspects should be addressed in a Korean dictionary, and deleted in Hangeul orthography guidelines. B. The clauses of Hangeul orthography guidelines should be edited for revision and substitution where necessary. C. The usage of individual clauses should be replaced with more appropriate examples aligned with everyday conversation. D. In order to establish 'Hangeul orthography for foreigners', linguists should continuously review several chapters and the appendix of Hangeul orthography, such as components about forms, spacing between words, miscellaneous, and punctuation marks. The purpose of this review is to pursue the simplicity of Hangeul orthography guidelines and the practicality in terms of reflecting more realistic examples. This review contributes to facilitate Korean language usage not only for non-native learners, but also native users.

The visual span refers to the number of letters that can be accurately recognized without moving one's eyes. The size of the visual span is affected by sensory factors such as perimetric complexity, crowding, and mislocation of letters. Korean Hangul utilizes rather unique alphabetic-syllabary writing system, quite different from English and Chinese writing systems. Due to this combinatorial nature of the script, the visual span for Hangul characters can also be affected by the letter type (e.g., CV vs CVCC). The present study examined the effect of syllable complexity on the visual span for Hangul by comparing letter recognition accuracy across four letter type conditions (C only, CV, CVC, and CVCC). We also aimed to determine the meaningful letter type(s) that is associated with differences in reading abilities in Korean. Using a trigram presentation method, we found that overall recognition accuracy declined as syllable complexity increased. However, the visual span for CVC type was greater than that for CV type, suggesting that the effect is not necessarily linear, and that there might be other factors affecting the visual span for these types of letters. C and CV type showed fairly strong positive correlations with reading comprehension, suggesting that these might be the meaningful units for measuring visual span in relating to reading abilities.
