The purpose of this study was to compare receptive language performance and expressive language performance in 13 patients with aphasia by using three stimulus presentation modes: Stimulus mode I (picture), Stimulus mode II (written word), Stimulus m (question using verbal explanation). The stimulus consisted of 10 words. They included 5 functional words and 5 non-functional words. The 13 subjects with aphasia were divided into 2 aphasic types: 5 Broca's aphasics and 8 anomie aphasics. The results were as follows: Firstly, the three stimulus modes didn't affect receptive language performance of aphasia subjects. Secondly; the three stimulus modes were effective on expressive language performance of aphasia subjects. Particularly, stimulus mode II (written words) was effective in naming the aphasia subjects. Thirdly, the functional words with high frequency were better than non-functional words with low frequency on expressive language performance, but not on receptive language performance of aphasia subjects. Finally, the interaction between three stimulus modes and the functional (nonfunctional) words affected expressive language performance only, but not receptive language performance. Particularly, presenting stimulus in written words which are functional words produced the best expressive language performance.

함수언어는 여러 가지 유용한 특징에도 불구하고 상태를 나타내기 위한 효율적인 방법을 제공하지 못하고있다. 함수언어의 표현력을 높이기 위해서는 함수언어의 의미를 위배함이 없이 상태를 명시적으로 나타내기 위한 방법이 요구된다. 이 연구에서는 순수 함수언어의 성질을 위배함이 없이 상태를 표현하기 위한 명령형 함수언어 $\lambda$st-계산을 설계하였고 제안된 명령형 함수언어를 감축하기 위한 알고리즘을 구성하였다. $\lambda$-계산에 명시적인 상태 구성자를 확장한 $\lambda$st-계산 모델은 상태의 합성 개념을 도입하고 감축규칙을 간략화 함으로써 구문구조의 표현력을 향상시켰다.

Modern functional languages provide some forms of pattern matching capability in them. However, these forms are on an ad-hoc basis and vary from languages to languages, making the user hard to understand the feature. To overcome this problem, we present a systematic approach to adding pattern matching to functional language. We extend to the core functional language with pattern matching capability and illustrate several examples of the language. We also discuss how to extend the pattern matching capability to higher-order terms.

Objective : Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) is frequently used to localize language areas in a non-invasive manner. Various paradigms for presurgical localization of language areas have been developed, but a systematic quantitative evaluation of the efficiency of those paradigms has not been performed. In the present study, the authors analyzed different language paradigms to see which paradigm is most efficient in localizing frontal language areas. Methods : Five men and five women with no neurological deficits participated (mean age, 24 years) in this study. All volunteers were right-handed. Each subject performed 4 tasks, including fixation (Fix), sentence reading (SRI. pseudoword reading (PR), and word generation (WG). Fixation and pseudoword reading were used as contrasts. The functional area was defined as the area(s) with a t-value of more than 3.92 in fMRI with different tasks. To apply an anatomical constraint, we used a brain atlas mapping system, which is available in AFNI, to define the anatomical frontal language area. The numbers of voxels in overlapped area between anatomical and functional area were individually counted in the frontal expressive language area. Results : Of the various combinations, the word generation task was most effective in delineating the frontal expressive language area when fixation was used as a contrast (p<0.05). The sensitivity of this test for localizing Broca's area was 81 % and specificity was 70%. Conclusion : Word generation versus fixation could effectively and reliably delineate the frontal language area. A customized effective paradigm should be analyzed in order to evaluate various language functions.

본 논문에서는 함수적 속성을 가지는 협업 지원 시각언어를 제안한다. 제안한 시각언어는 객체 아이콘과 연산자들로 구성되는 시각 문장의 집합이다. 객체 아이콘은 협업에 참여하는 사용자를 의미하고 연산자는 사용자간 상호작용 시점에 따른 협업 관계를 의미한다. 시각 문장은 함수적 속성에 따라 연산되며, 연산 결과에 따라 다양한 협업을 지원한다. 함수적 속성은 시각 문장에서 다양한 연산 순서를 지원함으로서 협업 관계의 융통성을 제공한다. 또한, 동기 및 비동기 협업을 함께 표현함으로써 기존 시각언어보다 효율적인 협업을 지원한다. 그리고 시각 문장의 함수적 속성은 $\lambda$수식으로 분석한다.

This paper describes a method for automatic acquisition of wide-coverage treebank-based deep linguistic resources for Japanese, as part of a project on treebank-based induction of multilingual resources in the framework of Lexical-Functional Grammar (LFG). We automatically annotate LFG f-structure functional equations (i.e. labelled dependencies) to the Kyoto Text Corpus version 4.0 (KTC4) (Kurohashi and Nagao 1997) and the output of of Kurohashi-Nagao Parser (KNP) (Kurohashi and Nagao 1998), a dependency parser for Japanese. The original KTC4 and KNP provide unlabelled dependencies. Our method also includes zero pronoun identification. The performance of the f-structure annotation algorithm with zero-pronoun identification for KTC4 is evaluated against a manually-corrected Gold Standard of 500 sentences randomly chosen from KTC4 and results in a pred-only dependency f-score of 94.72%. The parsing experiments on KNP output yield a pred-only dependency f-score of 82.08%.

Working memory is the term used to refer to the mental workplace in which information can be temporarily stored and manipulated during complex everyday activities such as understanding language. The studies on language and working memory are based on Baddeley's phonological working memory and Daneman and Carpenter's functional working memory. This article reviews two working memory models and the studies on language and working memory based on each model. These are described in the implication of working memory in language development and specific language impairment-evaluation and treatment.

Purpose : We investigated the reproducibility of language lateralization by 4 different word generation paradigms or the rest contents in each paradigm using functional magnetic resonance imaging in normal volunteers Materials and Methods Nine normal volunteers with left-handedness (mean age: 25 yrs) were examined on a 1.57 MR unit using a single-shot gradient echo epibold sequence. Four different word generation paradigms of noun, verb, adjective and adverb were used in each normal volunteer for investigating language system. In each paradigm, two different rest contents consisted of only seeing the " +" symbol or reading the meaningless letters. Each task consisted of 96 phases including 3 activations and 6 rests of 2 different contents. Two activation maps in one task were obtained under two different rest contents using the correlation method. We evaluated the detection rates of Broca and Wernicke areas and the differences of language lateralization among four different word generation paradigms, or between the rest contents. Results : The detection rates of Broca and Wernicke areas were over 67 % in 4 different language paradigms and there was no significant difference of them among language paradigms, or between two different rest contents. Language dominances, in all 4 different language paradigms, were shown to be consistent in 66 %, but were contrary with language paradigms in some subjects. The rest contents made no significant effect on dominant language dominance determination, but the success rates of the dominant language dominances determined from 4 language paradigms were higher in reading the meaningless letter (100%, n=9) than in only seeing "+" on screen at the rest task (78%, n=7).

This study investigates perceptual confusions of English fricatives among 121 Korean elementary school English as a foreign language (EFL) learners with shorter periods of learning English. The objective is to examine how they perceive English fricative consonants and to provide educational guidelines. Two sets of English fricative identification tasks-voiceless fricatives and voiced fricatives-were administered to participants in a High Variability Phonetic Training (HVPT) setting. Their phonemic awareness of the fricatives was visualized in perceptual confusion maps via multidimensional scaling analysis. The findings are explored in terms of the impacts of Korean EFL learners' L1 linguistic aspects and a comparison with L1 learners. Learners' phonemic awareness patterns are then compared with their relative importance in speech intelligibility based on a functional load hierarchy. The results indicated that Korean elementary EFL learners recognized English fricatives in a manner largely akin to L1 learners, suggesting their ongoing acquisition progress. Additionally, the findings demonstrated that the young EFL learners possess sufficient phonemic awareness for most high functional load segments but encounter some difficulties with one high and one low functional pair. The findings of this study offer suggestions for diagnosing language learners' phonemic awareness abilities, thereby aiding in the development of practical guidelines for language instructional design and helping educators make informed decisions regarding teaching priority in L2 classes.

사용자의 관점에서 볼때는 compiler가 parallelism을 발견할 수 있게 하는것이 매우 요구되지만, 아무리 잘 만들어진 compiler 라 할지라도 conditional, functional 또는 I/O statement 등 프로그램내에 존재하는 많은 parallelism을 인식 하기가 결코 쉬운 일이 아니다. 경우에 따라서는 compiler의 parallelism 결정이 곤란할경우 사용자에게 feedback 시키는 경우가 종종 있다. 이런 입장에서 프로그래머는 parallelism을 바로 전달하기 위해서 프로그램의 일부를 재구성 시킬 필요가 자주 발생한다. 그러한 관점에서 Functional, Declarative 언어의 잇점이 있다고 할 수 있고, 그러기 위해서는 paralled machine에 적합한 Algorithm 이 필요하다. 그러나, 이미 사용중인 Algorithm이 Parallel Machine에 부적절 하다는 것을 의미 하는것은 아니다. 본 연구에서는, Fortran을 이용하여 Parallel Algorithm을 구현 시키기위한 Declarative 언어에 있어서 Array 및 Matrix 를 다루기위한 Abstraction 방법을 제시 하고자 한다.
