This paper argues that the basic modes of spatial cognition can be best identified in terms of argument/participant location, and shows that natural language uses‘simple’types of semantic denotations to encode spatial cognition, and further notes that spatial expressions should be interpreted not as locating an event/state as a whole but as locating arguments/participants of the event. The ways of locating events/states are identified in terms of argument orientation(AO), Which indicates semantic patterns of linkiarticipant location. and shows that natural langrage uses ng locatives to specific arguments. Four patterns of argument orientation described here reveal substantial modes of spatial cognition. and the AO patterns are mostly determined by the semantic classes of English verbs combining with locative expressions, i.e., by the event type of the predicate. As for the denotational constraint of locatives, the paper concludes that semantic denotations of locative PPs are restricted to the intersecting functions mapping relations to relations.

作爲使用頻率較高的副詞, "皆"和"都"分別代表了古代漢語和現代漢語中的兩類總括範圍副詞. 這兩類總括範圍副詞之間, 不是簡單的詞彙替代, 而是一種系統的變化. 通過語義指向, 焦點, 與否定副詞的連用情況的考察, 我們發現"皆", "盡", "都"存在一定的差異, 而且得出了"都"對"皆", "盡"的功能進行了基本結論. 這個演變從深層結構上說, 是各自的語義焦點的差異. "都"之所以能夠取代"皆", "盡", 成爲現代漢語主要的總括範圍副詞, 是因爲它在語義上不僅像"皆"那樣統括的範圍之內的個體在動作行爲或者性狀上的一致性, 也不僅像"盡"那樣強調指向對象的無例外, 而是這兩者的綜合.

This paper proposes how to improve performance of the Korean document sentiment-classification system using semantic properties of the sentiment words. A sentiment word means a word with sentiment, and sentiment features are defined by a set of the sentiment words which are important lexical resource for the sentiment classification. Sentiment feature represents different sentiment intensity in general field and in specific domain. In general field, we can estimate the sentiment intensity using a snippet from a search engine, while in specific domain, training data can be used for this estimation. When the sentiment intensity of the sentiment features are estimated, it is called semantic orientation and is used to estimate the sentiment intensity of the sentences in the text documents. After estimating sentiment intensity of the sentences, we apply that to the weights of sentiment features. In this paper, we evaluate our system in three different cases such as general, domain-specific, and general/domain-specific semantic orientation using support vector machine. Our experimental results show the improved performance in all cases, and, especially in general/domain-specific semantic orientation, our proposed method performs 3.1% better than a baseline system indexed by only content words.

스마트폰과 같은 모바일 기기가 발전함에 따라 SNS, 모바일 메신저, SMS와 같은 단문 기반 메시지는 자신의 감정을 가장 잘 표현하는 매체이다. 그럼에도 불구하고 기존 연구는 주로 장문의 텍스트로부터 긍정, 부정 분류나 문서의 성향을 분석하는 것에 그치는 경우가 많다. 의미지향(Semantic Orientation)방법은 검색엔진을 통해 감정 키워드와 인지하고자 하는 단어의 동시 빈출 정도를 PMI로 계산한 것으로 WordNet과 같은 의미 사전이 존재하지 않는 한국어의 특성에서 적용 가능한 방법이다. 본 논문에서는 의미 지향성 및 다른 텍스트 기반 감정 분류 기술에 대해 비교하고 이들을 활용하여 한국어로 구성된 단문 텍스트에서 효율적인 감정 분류 기법을 제안하고자 한다.

본 논문은 한국어 문서 감정분류를 위한 중요한 어휘 자원인 감정자질(Sentiment Feature)의 의미지향성(Semantic Orientation) 추정을 위해 일반적인 특성과 영역(Domain) 의존적인 특성을 반영하여 한국어 문서 감정분류(Sentiment Classification)의 성능 향상을 얻을 수 있는 기법을 제안한다. 감정자질의 의미지 향성은 검색 엔진을 통해 추출한 각 감정 자질의 스니핏(Snippet)과 실험 말뭉치를 이용하여 추정할 수 있다. 검색 엔진을 통해 추출된 스니핏은 감정자질의 일반적인 특성을 반영하며, 실험 말뭉치는 분류하고자 하는 영역 의존적인 특성을 반영한다. 이렇게 얻어진 감정자질의 의미지향성 수치는 각 문장의 감정강도를 추정하기 위해 이용되며, 문장의 감정 강도의 값을 TF-IDF 가중치 기법에 접목하여 감정자질의 가중치를 책정한다. 최종적으로 학습 과정에서 긍정 문서에서는 긍정 감정자질, 부정 문서에서는 부정 감정자질을 대상으로 추가 가중치를 부여하여 학습하였다. 본 논문에서는 문서 분류에 뛰어난 성능을 보여주는 지지 벡터 기계(Support Vector Machine)를 사용하여 제안한 방법의 성능을 평가한다. 평가 결과, 일반적인 정보 검색에서 사용하는 내용어(Content Word) 기반의 자질을 사용한 경우보다 3.1%의 성능향상을 보였다.

This study develops an effective method for sentiment analysis of user-generated content on drug review websites, which has not been investigated extensively compared to other general domains, such as product reviews. A clause-level sentiment analysis algorithm is developed since each sentence can contain multiple clauses discussing multiple aspects of a drug. The method adopts a pure linguistic approach of computing the sentiment orientation (positive, negative, or neutral) of a clause from the prior sentiment scores assigned to words, taking into consideration the grammatical relations and semantic annotation (such as disorder terms) of words in the clause. Experiment results with 2,700 clauses show the effectiveness of the proposed approach, and it performed significantly better than the baseline approaches using a machine learning approach. Various challenging issues were identified and discussed through error analysis. The application of the proposed sentiment analysis approach will be useful not only for patients, but also for drug makers and clinicians to obtain valuable summaries of public opinion. Since sentiment analysis is domain specific, domain knowledge in drug reviews is incorporated into the sentiment analysis algorithm to provide more accurate analysis. In particular, MetaMap is used to map various health and medical terms (such as disease and drug names) to semantic types in the Unified Medical Language System (UMLS) Semantic Network.

This paper proposes a method to segment urban scenes semantically based on location prior information. Since major scene elements in urban environments such as roads, buildings, and vehicles are often located at specific locations, using the location prior information of these elements can improve the segmentation performance. The location priors are defined in special 2D coordinates, referred to as road-normal coordinates, which are perpendicular to the orientation of the road. With the help of depth information to each element, all the possible pixels in the image are projected into these coordinates and the learned prior information is applied to those pixels. The proposed location prior can be modeled by defining a unary potential of a conditional random field (CRF) as a sum of two sub-potentials: an appearance feature-based potential and a location potential. The proposed method was validated using publicly available KITTI dataset, which has urban images and corresponding 3D depth measurements.

With the progress of social economy and science and technology, network media technology has developed rapidly, China has ushered in the network information age, and the network buzzwords emerged to reflect the interaction and influence between language and society. The network buzzwords of "X+ ren "indirectly show the social psychology and value orientation of modern people with their unique structural characteristics, semantic connotation and cultural deposits, and so on. Based on this, we have conducted a multi-angle investigation on the network buzzwords "X+ ren". This paper first analyzes the structure types and syntactic functions of the lexical model of "X+ ren ", then makes a semantic analysis of the lexical model of "X+ Ren ", and finally investigates the causes and influences of the popularity of "X+ ren ". Through the investigation, we believe that "X+ ren "will continue to grow, and "X+ ren" will continue to attract the attention of the academic community.

This paper addresses a task of opinion extraction from given documents and its positive/negative classification. We propose a sentence classification method using a notion of syntactic piece. Syntactic piece is a minimum unit of structure, and is used as an alternative processing unit of n-gram and whole tree structure. We compute its semantic orientation, and classify opinion sentences into positive or negative. We have conducted an experiment on more than 5000 opinion sentences of multiple domains, and have proven that our approach attains high performance at 91% precision.

This study utilized a semantic network analysis for Korean major newspaper articles concerning 'Bernie Sanders'. 'Bernie Sanders' promotes conservative values of 'Americana' as well as the progressive values of 'relieving inequality', and thus, perhaps he is a subject on which ideological differences between the press can be distinctively manifest. Upon comparison of the priority of frequency between the conservative press and progressive press, the conservative press frequently used the expressions, 'socialist' and 'black man', whereas the progressive press frequently used the expressions, 'inequality' and 'problem'. Both the conservative press and progressive press displayed particularly different semantic compositions with the term, 'Korea'. The progressive press aimed to express the criticism of social problems and established politics identified by Sanders in relation to the 'Korean' society, whereas the conservative press criticized the blunt expressions stating that a specifically named politician resembles Sanders, and the specific party and term of 'Korea'. A completely different disposition of reports from different perspectives and context was ascertained, regardless of the use of the same terms. Thus, it is demonstrated that the semantic composition of the press on a specific issue displays significant differences according to their ideological disposition.
