This paper presents a method of using syntax and shallow semantic analysis for Vietnamese question generation (QG). Specifically, our proposed technique concentrates on investigating both the syntactic and shallow semantic structure of each sentence. The main goal of our method is to generate questions from a single sentence. These generated questions are known as factoid questions which require short, fact-based answers. In general, syntax-based analysis is one of the most popular approaches within the QG field, but it requires linguistic expert knowledge as well as a deep understanding of syntax rules in the Vietnamese language. It is thus considered a high-cost and inefficient solution due to the requirement of significant human effort to achieve qualified syntax rules. To deal with this problem, we collected the syntax rules in Vietnamese from a Vietnamese language textbook. Moreover, we also used different natural language processing (NLP) techniques to analyze Vietnamese shallow syntax and semantics for the QG task. These techniques include: sentence segmentation, word segmentation, part of speech, chunking, dependency parsing, and named entity recognition. We used human evaluation to assess the credibility of our model, which means we manually generated questions from the corpus, and then compared them with the generated questions. The empirical evidence demonstrates that our proposed technique has significant performance, in which the generated questions are very similar to those which are created by humans.

This pilot study explores a method of extracting metadata values and descriptions from records using named entity recognition (NER), a technique in natural language processing (NLP), a subfield of artificial intelligence. The study focuses on handwritten records from the Guro Industrial Complex, produced during the 1960s and 1970s, comprising approximately 1,200 pages and 80,000 words. After the preprocessing process of the records, which included digitization, the study employed a publicly available language API based on Google's Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers (BERT) language model to recognize entity names within the text. As a result, 173 names of people and 314 of organizations and institutions were extracted from the Guro Industrial Complex's past records. These extracted entities are expected to serve as direct search terms for accessing the contents of the records. Furthermore, the study identified challenges that arose when applying the theoretical methodology of NLP to real-world records consisting of semistructured text. It also presents potential solutions and implications to consider when addressing these issues.

A named entity(NE) dictionary is an important resource for the performance of NE recognition. However, it is not easy to construct a NE dictionary manually since human annotation is time consuming and labor-intensive. To save construction time and reduce human labor, we propose a semi-automatic system for the construction of a NE dictionary. The proposed system constructs a pseudo-document with Wiki-categories per NE class by using an active learning technique. Then, it calculates similarities between Wiki entries and pseudo-documents using the BM25 model, a well-known information retrieval model. Finally, it classifies each Wiki entry into NE classes based on similarities. In experiments with three different types of NE class sets, the proposed system showed high performance(macro-average F1-score of 0.9028 and micro-average F1-score 0.9554).

본 논문에서는 개체명 사전과 결합 단어 사전, 그리고 용언의 하위범주화 사전을 이용하는 규칙기반의 한국어 개체명 인식 방법을 제안한다. 각 규칙은 네 단계로 나누어 적용하는데, 첫번째 단계에서는 어절 내의 단어 정보를, 두번째 단계에서는 제한된 주변 문맥 정보를, 그리고 세번째 단계에서는 용언의 하위범주화 정보와 개체명과의 관계를 이용하고, 마지막으로 네번째 단계에서는 개체명 간의 관계 정보를 고려한다. 본 논문에서 제안한 규칙 기반 개체명 인식기의 성능을 평가하기 위해 실험한 결과 90.4%의 정확률과 83.4%의 재현율을 얻었다.

In the field of patents, as NLP(Natural Language Processing) is a challenging task due to the linguistic specificity of patent literature, there is an urgent need to research a language model optimized for Korean patent literature. Recently, in the field of NLP, there have been continuous attempts to establish a pre-trained language model for specific domains to improve performance in various tasks of related fields. Among them, ELECTRA is a pre-trained language model by Google using a new method called RTD(Replaced Token Detection), after BERT, for increasing training efficiency. The purpose of this paper is to propose KorPatELECTRA pre-trained on a large amount of Korean patent literature data. In addition, optimal pre-training was conducted by preprocessing the training corpus according to the characteristics of the patent literature and applying patent vocabulary and tokenizer. In order to confirm the performance, KorPatELECTRA was tested for NER(Named Entity Recognition), MRC(Machine Reading Comprehension), and patent classification tasks using actual patent data, and the most excellent performance was verified in all the three tasks compared to comparative general-purpose language models.

A smart tourism chatbot is needed as a user interface to efficiently provide smart tourism services such as recommended travel products, tourist information, my travel itinerary, and tour guide service to tourists. We have been developed a smart tourism app and a smart tourism information system that provide smart tourism services to tourists. We also developed a smart tourism chatbot service consisting of khaiii morpheme analyzer, rule-based intention classification, and tourism information knowledge base using Neo4j graph database. In this paper, we develop the Korean and English smart tourism Name Entity (NE) datasets required for the development of the NER model using the pre-trained language models (PLMs) for the smart tourism chatbot system. We create the tourism information NER datasets by collecting source data through smart tourism app, visitJeju web of Jeju Tourism Organization (JTO), and web search, and preprocessing it using Korean and English tourism information Name Entity dictionaries. We perform training on the KoBERT-CRF NER model using the developed Korean and English tourism information NER datasets. The weight-averaged precision, recall, and f1 scores are 0.94, 0.92 and 0.94 on Korean and English tourism information NER datasets.

개체명 인식은 질의응답(QA), 정보 주줄(IE), 텍스트 마이닝 시스템의 성능 향상에 중요한 역할을 담당한다. 이 논문에서는 교사학습 기반의 한국어 개체명 인식에 대해 설명한다. 한국어에서 많은 개체명들이 하나 이상의 단어로 구성되어 있으며, 개체명을 구성하는 단어 사이에는 의존 관계가 존재하고, 개체명과 개체명 주위의 단어 사이에도 문맥적 의존관계를 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 가변길이의 개체명과 주변 문맥의 학습을 위해 트라이그램을 이용한 HMM을 사용하였으며, 자료 부족 문제를 해소하기 위해 어휘 기반이 아닌 부개체 유형 기반의 학습을 수행하였다. 학습된 개체명 인식 시스템을 이용하여 경제 분야의 신문 기사에 대한 실험 결과, 84.4%의 정확률과 90.9%의 재현률을 보였다.

With improvement of speech recognition and natural language processing, dialog systems are recently adapted to various service domains. It became possible to get desirable services by conversation through the dialog system, but it is still necessary to improve separate modules, such as domain detection, intention detection, named entity recognition, and out-of-domain detection, in order to achieve stable service offer. When it misclassifies an in-domain sentence of conversation as out-of-domain, it will result in poor customer satisfaction and finally lost business. As there have been relatively small number of studies related to the out-of-domain detection, in this paper, we introduce a new method using a hierarchical Dirichlet process and demonstrate the effectiveness of it by experimental results on Korean dataset.
