Computer-Assisted Pronunciation Training system is considered to be a useful tool for pronunciation learning for students who received elementary level English pronunciation education, especially for students who have difficulty in correcting their pronunciation in front of others or who are not able to receive face-to-face training. The conventional Computer-Assisted Pronunciation Training system shows the word to the user, the user pronounces the word, and then the system provides phoneme or audio feedback according to the pronunciation of the user. In this paper, we propose a Computer-Assisted Pronunciation Training system that can practice on the varying pronunciation according to positions of adjacent phonemes. To achieve this, the proposed system is implemented by recommending a series of words by focusing on adjacent phonemes for simplicity and clarity. Experimental results showed that word recommendation considering adjacent phonemes leads to improvement of pronunciation accuracy.

This paper introduces an isolated word recognition system realized on a neurocomputer called E-MIND II, which is a 2-D torus wavefront array processor consisting of 256 DNP IIs. The DNP II is an all digital VLSI unit processor for the EMIND II featuring the emulation capability of more than thousands of neurons, the 40 MHz clock speed, and the on-chip learning. Built by these PEs in 2-D toroidal mesh architecture, the E- MIND II can be accelerated over 2 Gcps computation speed. In this light, the advantages of the E-MIND II in its capability of computing speed, scalability, computer interface, and learning are especially suitable for real time application such as speech recognition. We show how to map a TDNN structure on this array and how to code the learning and recognition algorithms for a user independent isolated word recognition. Through hardware simulation, we show that recognition rate of this system is about 97% for 30 command words for a robot control.

Abusive behaviors have become a common issue in many online social media platforms. Profanity is common form of abusive behavior in online. Social media platforms operate the filtering system using popular profanity words lists, but this method has drawbacks that it can be bypassed using an altered form and it can detect normal sentences as profanity. Especially in Korean language, the syllable is composed of graphemes and words are composed of multiple syllables, it can be decomposed into graphemes without impairing the transmission of meaning, and the form of a profane word can be seen as a different meaning in a sentence. This work focuses on the problem of filtering system mis-detecting normal phrases with profane phrases. For that, we proposed the deep learning-based framework including grapheme and syllable separation-based word embedding and appropriate CNN structure. The proposed model was evaluated on the chatting contents from the one of the famous online games in South Korea and generated 90.4% accuracy.

In order perform high accuracy recognition of text recognition systems, the recognized text must be processed through a post-processing stage using contextual information. We present a system that combines multiple knowledge sources to post-process the output of an optical character recognition(OCR) system. The multiple knowledge sources include characteristics of word, wrongly recognized types of Hangul characters, and Hangul word learning In this paper, the wrongly recognized characters which are made by OCR systems are collected and analyzed. We imput a Korean dictionary with approximately 15 0,000 words, and Korean language texts of Korean elementary/middle/high school. We found that only 10.7% words in Korean language texts of Korean elementary/middle /high school were used in a Korean dictionary. And we classified error types of Korean character recognition with OCR systems. For Hangul word learning, we utilized indexes of texts. With these multiple knowledge sources, we could predict a proper word in large candidate words.

These days, various and tons of education information are rapidly increasing and spreading due to Internet and smart devices usage. Recently, as e-Learning usage increasing, many instructors and students (learners) need to set a goal to maximize learners' result of education and education system efficiency based on big data analytics via online recorded education historical data. In this paper, the author applied Word2Vec algorithm (neural network algorithm) to find similarity among education words and classification by clustering algorithm in order to objectively recognize and analyze online recorded education historical data. When the author applied the Word2Vec algorithm to education words, related-meaning words can be found, classified and get a similar vector values via learning repetition. In addition, through experimental results, the author proved the part of speech (noun, verb, adjective and adverb) have same shortest distance from the centroid by using clustering algorithm.

We study a learner-customized lecture recommendation project using deep learning. Recommendation systems can be easily found on the web and apps, and examples using this feature include recommending feature videos by clicking users and advertising items in areas of interest to users on SNS. In this study, the sentence similarity Word2Vec was mainly used to filter twice, and the course was recommended through the Surprise library. With this system, it provides users with the desired classification of course data conveniently and conveniently. Surprise Library is a Python scikit-learn-based library that is conveniently used in recommendation systems. By analyzing the data, the system is implemented at a high speed, and deeper learning is used to implement more precise results through course steps. When a user enters a keyword of interest, similarity between the keyword and the course title is executed, and similarity with the extracted video data and voice text is executed, and the highest ranking video data is recommended through the Surprise Library.

Collaborative filtering(CF) uses the purchase or item rating history of other users, but does not need additional properties or attributes of users and items. Hence CF is known th be the most successful recommendation technology. But conventional CF approach has some significant weakness, such as the new user problem. In this paper, we propose a approach using word embedding with skip-gram for learning distributed item representations. In particular, we show that this approach can be used to capture precise item for solving the "new user problem." The proposed approach has been tested on the Movielens databases. We compare the performance of the user based CF, item based CF and our approach by observing the change of recommendation results according to the different number of item rating information. The experimental results shows the improvement in our approach in measuring the precision applied to new user problem situations.

Everyone can easily acquire learning materials on web environment that rapidly develops. Because the importance of English education has been emphasized day by day, many English education systems are introduced. However, previous most English education systems support only single user mode, and cannot deal with a newly coined word such as 'WIKIPEDIA'. In order to lead a user's learning ability with interest and enjoyment, this paper propose an online English word game system implementing a 'scrabble' board game. The proposed English word game system has the following characteristics. First, the proposed system supports both single user mode and multi user mode with a virtual user based on artificial intelligence. Second, the proposed system can recognize newly coined words such as 'WIKIPEDIA' by using NEVER Open API dictionary. Third, the proposed system offers familiar user interface so that a user can play the game without any manual. Therefore, it is expected that the proposed system can help users to learn English words with interest and enjoyment.

This paper proposes a novel of a personalized Computer Assisted Language Learning (CALL) system based on learner's cognitive abilities related to foreign language proficiency. In this CALL system, a strategy of retrieval learning, a method of learning memory cycle, and a method of repeated learning are applied for effective vocabulary memorization. The system is designed to offer personalized learning based on cognitive abilities related to the human language process. For this, the proposed CALL system has a cognitive diagnosis module which can measure five types of cognitive abilities. The results of this diagnosis are used to create dynamic learning scenarios for personalized learning and to evaluate user performance in the learning. This system is also designed in order to have users be able to create learning word lists and to share them simply with various functions based on open APIs. Additionally, through experiments, it has shown that this system helps students to learn English vocabulary effectively and enhances their foreign language skills.
