The complexity and consistency are important factors that affect human information processing in use of product. In this study, complexity and consistency of product(remote controller) are measured by Task Action Grammar(TAG) model. Also, new design alternative of the user interface is presented and evaluated. The results show that the consistent system and the good correspondence between hierarchical structure of system and user's mental model lead to the reduction of errors and enhanced user's performance.

Most of the PC users manipulate the computer by using a few commands which are familiar with them. However by using Hangul sentences instead of using DOS commands, the optimal commands can be generated and flexibility can be provided. For this purpose, the conversion method of the input sentence into DOS commands is studied by means of morphological analysis, syntactic analysis, semantic analysis, and conceptual analysis. Tabular parsing is used in morphological analysis. case grammar is used in syntactic and semantic analysis. Case grammar is used in syntactic and semantic analysis. The meaning of sentence is represeented by the semantic network, from which we can generate a sequence DOS commands.

This study investigates how Korean speakers develop their interlanguage of English passive constructions with a reference to the learners' grammar proficiency levels. Sixty two college students of different levels of English participated in this study. They were asked to complete a sentence-completion task. Their production was classified into accurate passives, malformed passives, pseudo-passives, unaccusatives, and actives according to the use of transitive, ergative and unergative verbs. They then were further analyzed depending on the subjects' levels of grammar by three main factors: L1 transfer, the English voice system, and universal cognitive factors. The results showed that the subjects of the lower group produced more pseudo-passives, malformed passives, and overpassivization than those of the higher group, and even subjects of higher group still made passives for ergative verbs. It was also shown that L1 and universal factors had more influence on the lower group than on the higher group. Based on the analyses of the subjects' responses, the development of the English passive system by Korean learners is shown and some implications are suggested for effective teaching of English.

The goal of this paper is the pedagogical application of a Korean Spell/Grammar Checker to the web-based language learning system for Korean writing. To maximize the efficient instruction of our learning system \\`Urimal Baeumteo\\` we have to improve our Korean Spell/Grammar Checker. Today the NLP system\\`s performance defends on its semantic processing capability. In our Korean Spell/Grammar Checker. the tasks accomplished in the semantic level are: the detection and correction of misused derived and compound nouns in a Korean spell-checking device and the detection and correction of syntactic and semantic errors in a Korean grammars-checking device. We describe a common approach to the partial parsing using collocation rules based on the dependency grammar. To provide more detailed semantic rules. we classified nouns according to their concepts. and subcategorized verbs referring to their syntactic and semantic features. Improving a Korean Spell/Gl-Grammar Checker makes our learning system active and intelligent in a web-based environment. We acknowledge the flaws in our system: the classification of nouns based on their meanings and concepts is a time consuming task. the analytic unit of this study is principally limited to the phrases in a sentence therefore the accurate parsing of embedded sentences remains a difficult problem to solve. Concerning the web-based language learning system. it is critically important to consider its interface design and structure of its contents.

상대방에게 의사를 전달할 때 보다 정확하게 자신의 의도를 표현하려면 대화의 흐름에 맞는 적절한 억양을 주어 발화해야 한다. 본 논문에서는 결함범주문법을 이용하여 문장을 분석하고 문장 내 정보와 문장 간 정보 즉, 문맥에 따라 강세(pitch accent), 휴지(pause), 강조 등의 억양정보를 어떻게 나타내야 하는지를 분석하여 문장의 정보구조에 추가하는 방법을 제시한다.

본 논문은 부산대 철자 검사/교정기의 기존 성능을 보완하고 기능을 추가하는데 중점을 두었다. 웹 문서, 신문 등을 통해서 사용자들이 자주 틀리는 오류 단어에 대해서 오류 유형을 분류했다. 이 결과를 철자 검사 및 교정 시스템에 적용하여 교정기법 개선을 통하여 띄어쓰기 교정 기능을 향상 시켰다. 이렇게 새로 구현한 시스템과 이전 시스템의 성능을 실험을 통해 비교 분석하였다. 본 연구를 진행하면서 발견한 문제점과 한계를 이후 더 발전 해야할 과제로 고찰하고 결론을 맺는다.

In this paper, we introduce an automatic system of scoring English essays. The system is comprised of three main components: a spelling checker, a grammar checker and a lexical cohesion checker. We have used such resources as WordNet, Link Grammar/parser and Roget's thesaurus for these components. The usefulness of an automatic scoring system depends on its reliability. To measure reliability, we compared the results of automatic scoring with those of manual scoring, on the basis of the Kappa statistics and the Multi-facet Rasch Model. The statistical data obtained from the comparison showed that the scoring system is as reliable as professional human graders. This system deals with textual units rather than sentential units and checks not only formal properties of a text but also its contents.

The expression KES, one of the most commonly used words in the Korean language, has various usages. This expression is also used to express English-like cleft constructions. Korean seems to employ at least three different types of cleft constructions: predicational, identificational, and eventual. The paper tries to provide a constraint-based analysis of these three types of Korean cleft constructions and implement the analysis in the LKB(Linguistic Knowledge Building) system to check the feasibility of the analysis. In particular, the paper shows how a typed feature structure grammar, couched upon HPSG, can provide a robust basis for parsing Korean cleft constructions.

Database Semantics (DBS) attempts to provide a comprehensive and integrated approach to human communication which seeks theory-implementation transparency. Two key components of DBS are Word bank as a data structure and left-Associative Grammar (LAG) as an algorithm. This study aims to provide a pilot implementation of Korean in DBS. First, it is shown how the three separate modules of grammar in DBS, namely, Hear, Think, and Speak, combine to form an integrated system that simulates a cognitive agent by making use of a simple Korean sentence as an example. Second, we provide a detailed analysis of the structure in Korean that is a characteristic of Korean involving numerals, classifiers, and nouns, thereby illustrating how DBS can be applied to Korean. We also discuss an issue raised in the literature concerning a problem that arises when we try to apply the LAG algorithm to the analysis of head-final language like Korean, and then discuss some possible solution to the problem.

본 연구는 SNS 텍스트에서 형태소 분석기로 분석되지 않는 비정규토큰 유형 중 고빈도로 나타나는 의존명사 내포 어형의 형태소를 인식할 수 있는 LGG 기반 패턴문법 사전 구축과 그 성능을 평가하는 것을 목표로 한다. SNS 텍스트에서는 기존의 정형화된 텍스트와 달리, 띄어쓰기 오류로 인한 미분석어가 매우 높은 빈도로 나타나는데, 특히 의존명사를 포함한 유형이 20% 이상을 차지하며 가장 빈번한 것으로 나타났다. 이에 본 연구에서는 의존명사를 내포한 비정규토큰의 띄어쓰기 오류 문제를 효과적으로 처리하기 위해, 부분 문법 그래프(Local Grammar Graph: LGG) 프레임에 기반한 패턴문법 사전을 구축하였다. 이를 SNS 코퍼스에 적용하여 성능을 평가한 결과, 정확률 91.28%, 재현율 89%, 조화 평균 90.13%의 성능을 통해 본 연구의 접근 방법론의 유용성과 구축 자원의 실효성을 입증하였다.
