  • The recent revival of phenomenology and aesthetics is deeply connected to the development of neuroscience which studies the nervous system and the brain with particular regard to cognition and memory. How are those fields gathered into building up the basis for the communication not only between human beings but also between humanity and its environment? This paper examines the human mind considered unseparable from the body, with reference to Merleau-Ponty's two major works: Phenomenology of Perception (1962) and The Visible and the Invisible (1968). While reading these texts, I investigate the way he overturns the Cartesian cogito and establishes the body as the ground of perception. According to him, human perception is chiefly obtained through the body rather than consciousness. Influenced by William James, who produced the unique concept of cognition and memory through his experiments with the brain, Merleau-Ponty extends Heideggerian Desein to the field of the embodied mind. James also anticipates Bergson, who regards memory as the product of interaction between consciousness and matter (or the body). The intervention of the body which stores the past experiences makes it impossible for us to capture the present moment in itself. This failure, however, is viewed as positive by Merleau-Ponty because the human body is not only a medium of social interaction, but also that of ecological communion.

  • A critique on Freud's remembering taken place in the 80's and 90s has a significant impact on a paradigm shift: from the discursive constructivism to the neo-empiricism. Along with Marx and Nietzsche, Freud was one of the main intellectual sources in formulating the Cultural Studies, known as the political corrections in the later period of Post-modern era. In the wake of feminism, there was a social happening, namely, a memory restoration, when a woman therapist helped a woman patient to restore the past and come up with her father as the cause of her trauma. Finally, 'the false memory syndrome' brought up a hot issue firing on the controversy about Freudian remembering. Freud as a clinical therapist began to be a sole target to be criticized. Strangely enough, however, Freud was continually utilized by such theorists as Julia Kristeva, Homi Bhabah, and Žižek, while having dissenters like Deleuze, Quattari, and Butler. Of those intellectual claims, this paper focuses on the debates by the dissenters not from the discursive theorists but from the clinical studies: Sulloway, Grunbaum, and Crews. My argument directs to the empirical side of Freud for the conclusion that the dispute on him was a seed of a paradigm shift towards the neo-empiricism, after one century's flourishing of constructivism.

  • This study examined whether Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) is related to the reduction of specific memory among linguistic memory and visuospatial memory, and to identify the most predictive index for discriminating MCI from normal elderly. The subjects were analyzed for 189 elderly (103 healthy elderly, 86 MCI). The verbal memory was used by the Seoul Verbal Learning Test. visuospatial memory was measured using the Rey Complex Figure Test. As a result of multiple logistic regression, verbal memory and visuospatial memory showed significant predictive performance in discriminating MCI from normal elderly. On the other hand, when all the confounding variables were corrected, including the results of each memory test, the predictive power was significant in distinguishing MCI from normal aging only in the immediate recall of verbal memory, and the predictive power was not significant in the immediate recall of visuospatial memory. This result suggests that delayed recall of visuospatial memory and immediate recall of verbal memory are the best combinations to discriminate memory ability of MCI.

  • The purpose of this paper is to make a design and implementation of a diagnosis system of learning misconception of students who learn 'be' verb in the English language by using fuzzy theory. In this system, a fuzzy cognitive map exposes the fact that students' perception and misunderstanding about 'the English' language have an intertwined relationship, and diagnoses causes of misconceptions of students by using fuzzy memory associative memory. It suggests that since most existing systems of rule based expert system have had several limitations, this system will be applied to diagnose learners' misconception of learning in varieties of education areas.

  • 순환 신경망(RNN) 기반의 Long Short-Term Memory(LSTM)는 자연어처리 분야에서 우수한 성능을 보이는 모델이다. 음성을 문자로 변환해주는 Speech to Text (STT)를 이용해 자막을 생성하고, 생성된 자막을 다른 언어로 동시에 번역을 해주는 서비스가 활발히 진행되고 있다. STT를 사용하여 자막을 추출하는 경우에는 마침표가 없이 전부 연결된 문장이 생성되기 때문에 정확한 번역이 불가능하다. 본 논문에서는 영어자막의 자동 번역 시, 정확도를 높이기 위해 텍스트를 문장으로 분할하여 마침표를 생성해주는 방법을 제안한다. 이 때, LSTM을 이용하여 데이터를 학습시킨 후 테스트한 결과 62.3%의 정확도로 마침표의 위치를 예측했다.

  • The present study, focusing on the stress-shift constructions, examines the tendency of young children to give wrong wide scope interpretation in language acquisition and questions the validity of the guess pattern hypothesis argued by Grodzinsky & Reinhart (1993). According to the hypothesis, children know that they have to construct a reference-set, keep two representations in working memory, and check whether the interpretation needed in the given context justifies selection of competing reference sets, but their working memory is not big enough to hold the materials needed to complete the execution of this task. Hence they give up and resort to a guess. 1 carried out an experiment of 16 Korean children aged 3;9 to 6;2 to find out whether children have more difficulty in the interpretation of stress-shift constructions than of constructions with a nuclear stress, and therefore perform the interpretation of the former by guessing. Assuming that the tendency is caused by a deficiency in contextual computation rather than reference set computation, I try to explain it in terms of pragmatic considerations.

  • The experiments reported here investigated whether seeing a speaker's face (visible speech) affects the perception and memory of Korean speech sounds. In order to exclude the possibility of top-down, knowledge-based influences on perception and memory, the experiments tested people with no knowledge of Korean. The first experiment examined whether visible speech (Auditory and Visual - AV) assists English native speakers (with no knowledge of Korean) in the detection of a syllable within a Korean speech phrase. It was found that a syllable was more likely to be detected within a phrase when the participants could see the speaker's face. The second experiment investigated whether English native speakers' judgments about the duration of a Korean phrase would be affected by visible speech. It was found that in the AV condition participant's estimates of phrase duration were highly correlated with the actual durations whereas those in the AO condition were not. The results are discussed with respect to the benefits of communication with multimodal information and future applications.

  • 본 논문의 목표는 크게 두 가지이다. 하나는 2010년에 개발한 메신저 자동번역 시스템을 소개하는 것이고, 다른 하나는 메신저 대화체 문장을 더욱 고품질로 번역하기 위한 구조화된 번역 메모리(Structured Translation Memory)를 소개하는 것이다. 구조화된 번역 메모리는 기존의 문자열 기반의 번역 메모리와 자동 번역 시스템의 경계를 허무는 개념으로 구조를 표현하는 계층적 번역 메모리들로 구성된다. 구조화된 번역 메모리는 문자열 번역 메모리, 원형 어휘로 구성된 번역 메모리, 고유명사가 청킹된 번역 메모리, 날짜/숫자가 청킹된 번역 메모리, 기본명사구가 청킹된 번역 메모리, 문장 패턴 번역 메모리로 단계적으로 구성된다. 구조화된 번역 메모리를 적용하기 전의 2010년의 영한 메신저 자동 번역 시스템의 번역률이 81.67%였던 반면에, 구조화된 번역 메모리를 적용하려는 2011년의 영한 메신저 자동 번역 시스템의 시물레이션 번역률은 85.25%인 것으로 평가되었다. 따라서 구조화된 번역 메모리를 적용하였을 때는 기존의 번역률보다 3.58% 향상할 것으로 예측된다.

  • One of the major characteristics of C language is that it allows us to use pointer type variables to access any area of virtual address space. So, we can read/write/execute from/to virtual memory area not controlled delicately by operating system. We can access such memory area by using format string and it can be a vulnerability of C language from the point of secure programming. In this paper, we analyze in detail the process of security attack based on format string and then exploit a new virus style attack which is stepwise and durable with some actual scenarios to warn the severity of it, and grope for some preliminary responding actions.
