We present an automatic semantic annotation system for Korean on the EXCOM (EXploration COntextual for Multilingual) platform. The purpose of natural language processing is enabling computers to understand human language, so that they can perform more sophisticated tasks. Accordingly, current research concentrates more and more on extracting semantic information. The realization of semantic processing requires the widespread annotation of documents. However, compared to that of inflectional languages, the technology in agglutinative language processing such as Korean still has shortcomings. EXCOM identifies semantic information in Korean text using our new method, the Contextual Exploration Method. Our initial system properly annotates approximately 88% of standard Korean sentences, and this annotation rate holds across text domains.

Summarization is a complex cognitive task and its simulation is very difficult for machines. This paper presents an automatic summarization strategy that is based on a discourse categorization of the textual information. This categorization is carried out by the automatic identification of discourse markers in texts. We defend here the use of discourse methods in automatic summarization. Two evaluations of the summarization strategy are presented. The summaries produced by our strategy are evaluated with summaries produced by humans and other applications. These two evaluations display well the capacity of our application, based on EXCOM, to produce summaries comparable to the summaries of other applications.

인터넷에는 다양하고 많은 정보들이 담겨져 있다. 이 많은 정보들 중에서 사용자가 정말로 필요로 하는 정보를 기계로 추출해 내기 위해서 시맨틱 웹이라는 기술이 제안 되었다. 시맨틱 웹의 구현을 위해서는 기계가 해석할수 있는 데이터들이 필요한데 이것은 시맨틱 어노테이션을 통해서 얻어낼수 있다. 대부분의 시맨틱 어노테이션 시스템들은 영어로 작성된 문서들에 포커스를 두고 개발되었다. 한국어와 같은 교착어를 처리할수 있는 시스템들은 드물다. 본 논문에서는 시맨틱 어노테이션에 대해서 자세히 설명하고 한국어 시맨틱 어노테이션 시스템을 개발하는데에 어떤 언어적인 특징을 고려해야 하는지 살펴본다. 그리고 국외에서 개발된 한국어 시맨틱 어노테이션 시스템 EXCOM을 예제로 소개하겠다.

A Basic Plan for the Promotion of Space Development (hereinafter referred to as "basic plan"), which prescribes mid- and long-term policy objectives and basic direction-setting on space development every five years, is one of the matters to be deliberated by the National Space Committee. Confirmed February 2018 by the Committee, the 3rd Basic Plan has a unique matter, compared to the 2nd Basic Plan. It is to construct "Korean Positioning System(KPS)". Almost every country in the world including Korea has been relying on GPS. On the occasion of the shooting down of a Korean Air flight 007 by Soviet Russia, GPS Standard Positioning Service has been open to the world. Due to technical errors of GPS or conflict of interests between countries in international relations, however, the above Service can be interrupted at any time. Such cessation might bring extensive damage to the social, economic and security domains of every country. This is why some countries has been constructing an independent global or regional satellite navigation system: EU(Galileo), Russia(Glonass), India(NaVic), Japan(QZSS), and China(Beidou). So does South Korea. Once KPS is built, it is expected to make use of the system in various areas such as transportation, aviation, disaster, construction, defense, ocean, distribution, telecommunication, etc. For this, a pan-governmental governance is needed to be established. And this governance must be based on the law. Korea is richly experienced in developing and operating individually satellite itself, but it has little experience in the simultaneous development and operation of the satellites, ground, and users systems, such as KPS. Therefore we need to review overseas cases, in order to minimize trial and error. U.S. GPS is a classic example.
