  • The number of patients from Middle Eastern Arabic countries is steadily increasing in respect to the South Korean government's medical tourism strategies. Word of mouth is one of the main determinants concerning the Middle Eastern Arab patients' medical tourism destination. Further, patients' satisfaction affects repurchase and revisit intention. This study aimed to measure the level of Middle Eastern Arab patients' satisfaction, and to measure the effect of different medical factors on satisfaction in such patients who are seeking medical attention in South Korea. A 110 Middle Eastern Arab patients who visited South Korea for medical purposes participated in our survey between November, 2016 and April, 2017. All factors had a high mean (${\geq}4.24$; ${\geq}84.8/100$) except for one factor (hospital halal meals (3.82; 76.4)). To identify factors influencing participants' overall satisfaction we used multiple regression analysis. Physicians, interpreters, and halal meals were the main factors influencing overall Middle Eastern Arab patients' satisfaction. Physicians and interpreters in Korea are recommended to be oriented to basic Islamic beliefs and Middle Eastern Arab patients' behavior. Daily communication, such as speaking directly to the patient, limiting important issues to two or three at a time, and translating sentence by sentence, could help to improve Middle Eastern Arab patients' satisfaction. Enlisting Middle Eastern nutrition specialists in medical institutions in South Korea may substantially improve non-medical services satisfaction such as halal food and dietary restrictions.

  • Semantic role labeling task used in various natural language processing fields, such as information extraction and question answering systems, is the task of identifying the arugments for a given sentence and predicate. Predicate used as semantic role labeling input are extracted using lexical analysis results such as POS-tagging, but the problem is that predicate can't extract all linguistic patterns because predicate in korean language has various patterns, depending on the meaning of sentence. In this paper, we propose a korean predicate recognition method using neural network model with pre-trained embedding models and lexical features. The experiments compare the performance on the hyper parameters of models and with or without the use of embedding models and lexical features. As a result, we confirm that the performance of the proposed neural network model was 92.63%.

  • This study used a method of comparing and analyzing various editions of Jeokcheonsu, and aims to confirm why different views have arisen on commentaries that differ according to the perspective of one original text, which interpretation is more valid among them. It is not easy to grasp the theories of Myeongri because Jeokcheonsu is composed of the sentences of Si-bu with being well refined and having hidden meaning. Various perspectives makes the people more confused in reading commentaries. Lim Cheol-cho make additional annotations and try to subdivide the contents of Jeokcheonsu and classify them with quoting lots of 512 exemplifications in Ming Dynasty, and it is his great contribution to the Myeongri theory. The perspective that 'Eokbu Theory' is core contents of Myeongri theory in the first half of Jeokcheonsu is predominate. The sentence that 'Eokbu Theory' is mentioned for the first time is 'Cheayong, and we can quote 'Jeongsin', 'Soewang' and 'Junghwa' as a sentence paired together.'Eokbu Theory' of Jeokcheonsu is discussed continuously in the 'Gangyou' 'Junggwa' of Myeongri particulars which is connected in the middle of Jeokcheonsu.

  • 문장 표현(sentence representation)은 자연어처리 분야 내의 다양한 문제 해결 및 응용 개발에 있어 유용하게 활용될 수 있는 주요한 도구 중 하나이다. 하지만 최근 널리 도입되고 있는 사전 학습 언어 모델(pre-trained language model)로부터 도출한 문장 표현은 이방성(anisotropy)이 뚜렷한 등 그 고유의 특성으로 인해 문장 유사도(Semantic Textual Similarity; STS) 측정과 같은 태스크에서 기대 이하의 성능을 보이는 것으로 알려져 있다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 대조 학습(contrastive learning)을 사전 학습 언어 모델에 적용하는 연구가 문헌에서 활발히 진행되어 왔으며, 그중에서도 레이블이 없는 데이터를 활용하는 비지도 대조 학습 방법이 주목을 받고 있다. 하지만 대다수의 기존 연구들은 주로 영어 문장 표현 개선에 집중하였으며, 이에 대응되는 한국어 문장 표현에 관한 연구는 상대적으로 부족한 실정이다. 이에 본 논문에서는 대표적인 비지도 대조 학습 방법(ConSERT, SimCSE)을 다양한 한국어 사전 학습 언어 모델(KoBERT, KR-BERT, KLUE-BERT)에 적용하여 문장 유사도 태스크(KorSTS, KLUE-STS)에 대해 평가하였다. 그 결과, 한국어의 경우에도 일반적으로 영어의 경우와 유사한 경향성을 보이는 것을 확인하였으며, 이에 더하여 다음과 같은 새로운 사실을 관측하였다. 첫째, 사용한 비지도 대조 학습 방법 모두에서 KLUE-BERT가 KoBERT, KR-BERT보다 더 안정적이고 나은 성능을 보였다. 둘째, ConSERT에서 소개하는 여러 데이터 증강 방법 중 token shuffling 방법이 전반적으로 높은 성능을 보였다. 셋째, 두 가지 비지도 대조 학습 방법 모두 검증 데이터로 활용한 KLUE-STS 학습 데이터에 대해 성능이 과적합되는 현상을 발견하였다. 결론적으로, 본 연구에서는 한국어 문장 표현 또한 영어의 경우와 마찬가지로 비지도 대조 학습의 적용을 통해 그 성능을 개선할 수 있음을 검증하였으며, 이와 같은 결과가 향후 한국어 문장 표현 연구 발전에 초석이 되기를 기대한다.

  • We propose the sentiment pattern as a novel sentiment feature for more accurate text sentiment analysis, and introduce the rating inference of movie reviews using it. The text sentiment analysis is a task that recognizes and classifies sentiment of text whether it is positive or negative. For that purpose, the sentiment feature is used, which includes sentiment words and phrase pattern that have specific sentiment like positive or negative. The previous researches for the sentiment analysis, however, have a limit to understand accurately total sentiment of either a sentence or text because they consider the sentiment of sentiment words and phrase patterns independently. Therefore, we propose the sentiment pattern that is defined by arranging semantically all sentiment in a sentence, and use them as a new sentiment feature for the rating inference that is one of the detail subjects of the sentiment analysis. In order to verify the effect of proposed sentiment pattern, we conducted experiments of rating inference. Ratings of test reviews is inferred by using a probabilistic method with sentiment features including sentiment patterns extracted from training reviews. As a result, it is shown that the result of rating inference with sentiment patterns are more accurate than that without sentiment patterns.

  • It is widely known that chunking is beneficial to syntactic analysis. This paper introduces a method of chunking thai is useful for structural analysis of sentences in Korean. Dependent nouns in Korean usually tend to make sentences complex and long. By performing chunking operations related with dependent nouns, it is possible to reduce sentence complexity and thus make syntactic analysis easier. With this aim in mind we investigated techniques for chunking related with dependent nouns. We proposed a variety of chunking schemes according to the types of dependent nouns. The experiments showed that carrying out chunking leads to significant improvement of performance in syntactic analysis for Korean.

  • Spontaneous speech provides rich information defining the linguistic characteristics of individuals. As such, computational analysis of speech would enhance the efficiency involved in evaluating patients' speech. This study aims to provide a method to differentiate the persons with and without aphasia based on language usage. Ten aphasic patients and their counterpart normal controls participated, and they were all tasked to describe a set of given words. Their utterances were linguistically processed and compared to each other. Computational analyses from PCA (Principle Component Analysis) to machine learning were conducted to select the relevant linguistic features, and consequently to classify the two groups based on the features selected. It was found that functional words, not content words, were the main differentiator of the two groups. The most viable discriminators were demonstratives, function words, sentence final endings, and postpositions. The machine learning classification model was found to be quite accurate (90%), and to impressively be stable. This study is noteworthy as it is the first attempt that uses computational analysis to characterize the word usage patterns in Korean aphasic patients, thereby discriminating from the normal group.

  • Purpose: The purpose of this study is to compare and analyze the enterprise's score index calculated from atypical data and corrected data. Research design, data, and methodology: In this study, news articles which are non-financial information but qualitative data were collected from 2,432 SMEs that has been extracted "square proportional stratification" out of 18,910 enterprises with fixed data and compared/analyzed each enterprise's score index through text mining analysis methodology. Result: The analysis showed that qualitative data can be quantitatively evaluated by region, industry and period by collecting news from SMEs, and that there are concerns that it could be an element of alternative credit evaluation. Conclusion: News data cannot be collected even if one of the small businesses is self-employed or small businesses has little or no news coverage. Data normalization or standardization should be considered to overcome the difference in scores due to the amount of reference. Furthermore, since keyword sentiment analysis may have different results depending on the researcher's point of view, it is also necessary to consider deep learning sentiment analysis, which is conducted by sentence.

  • There has been a growing interest in IPOs (Initial Public Offerings) due to the profitable returns that IPO stocks can offer to investors. However, IPOs can be speculative investments that may involve substantial risk as well because shares tend to be volatile, and the supply of IPO shares is often highly limited. Therefore, it is crucially important that IPO investors are well informed of the issuing firms and the market before deciding whether to invest or not. Unlike institutional investors, individual investors are at a disadvantage since there are few opportunities for individuals to obtain information on the IPOs. In this regard, the purpose of this study is to provide individual investors with the information they may consider when making an IPO investment decision. This study presents a model that uses machine learning and text analysis to predict whether an IPO stock price would move up or down after the first 5 trading days. Our sample includes 691 Korean IPOs from June 2009 to December 2020. The input variables for the prediction are three tone variables created from IPO prospectuses and quantitative variables that are either firm-specific, issue-specific, or market-specific. The three prospectus tone variables indicate the percentage of positive, neutral, and negative sentences in a prospectus, respectively. We considered only the sentences in the Risk Factors section of a prospectus for the tone analysis in this study. All sentences were classified into 'positive', 'neutral', and 'negative' via text analysis using TF-IDF (Term Frequency - Inverse Document Frequency). Measuring the tone of each sentence was conducted by machine learning instead of a lexicon-based approach due to the lack of sentiment dictionaries suitable for Korean text analysis in the context of finance. For this reason, the training set was created by randomly selecting 10% of the sentences from each prospectus, and the sentence classification task on the training set was performed after reading each sentence in person. Then, based on the training set, a Support Vector Machine model was utilized to predict the tone of sentences in the test set. Finally, the machine learning model calculated the percentages of positive, neutral, and negative sentences in each prospectus. To predict the price movement of an IPO stock, four different machine learning techniques were applied: Logistic Regression, Random Forest, Support Vector Machine, and Artificial Neural Network. According to the results, models that use quantitative variables using technical analysis and prospectus tone variables together show higher accuracy than models that use only quantitative variables. More specifically, the prediction accuracy was improved by 1.45% points in the Random Forest model, 4.34% points in the Artificial Neural Network model, and 5.07% points in the Support Vector Machine model. After testing the performance of these machine learning techniques, the Artificial Neural Network model using both quantitative variables and prospectus tone variables was the model with the highest prediction accuracy rate, which was 61.59%. The results indicate that the tone of a prospectus is a significant factor in predicting the price movement of an IPO stock. In addition, the McNemar test was used to verify the statistically significant difference between the models. The model using only quantitative variables and the model using both the quantitative variables and the prospectus tone variables were compared, and it was confirmed that the predictive performance improved significantly at a 1% significance level.

  • It is not easy to find out syntactic error in a spelling checker systems of Korean, because the spelling checker is generally to correct each phrase and it cannot check the errors of contextual ill-matched words. Spelling checker system tests errors based on a words. Disambiguation of lexical ambiguities is important in natural language processing. Its outputs is used in syntactic analysis. For accurate analysis of a sentence, syntactic analysis system must find out the ambiguity of morphemes in a word. In this paper, we suggest several rules to resolve the ambiguities of morphemes in a word. Using these methods, we can reduce many lexical ambiguities in Korean.
