Objective and Background : Attempt to express knowledge by IT is the current of the times, knowledge of the oriental medicine have to meet the needs of the times. It takes 'classification system of the oriental medicine terms' and 'system of the predicate' for explaining the relation between concepts to express knowledge by IT technique. Researches for 'classification system of the oriental medicine terms' are in progress already, researches for 'system of the predicate' are insufficient. Subject of study : We proceeded to study of the predicate in Idongwon(李東垣)'s "Biwiron(脾胃論)" has clear theory system and considerable influence upon knowledge of the oriental medicine for studying 'system of the predicate' which expresses knowledge of the oriental medicine in early stage. Method : Acquire Chinese play a predicate part in "Biwiron(脾胃論)", translate the Chinese to answer the context, group the similar predicate, decide representative predicate of group. And attempt to make classification system of the representative predicate with Term management system based on SQL Server 2005. Results and Considerations : I classify the predicate which predicate diagnosis, treatment, symptoms and knowledge of the oriental medicine into existence, condition, cognition and will. This classification seems to be useful to explain factors which have an effect on demonstration and treatment.

전통적으로 자연어 텍스트로부터의 감정인식 연구는 감정 키워드에 기반한다. 그러나 감정 키워드만을 이용하면 자연어 문장이 원래 갖고 있는 통사정보나 의미정보는 잃어버리게 된다. 이를 극복하기 위해 본 논문에서는 자연어 텍스트를 Predicate Logic 형태로 변환하여 감정 정보처리의 기반데이터로 사용한다. Predicate Logic형태로 변환하기 위해서 의존 문법 구문분석기를 사용하였다. 이렇게 생성된 Predicate 데이터 중 감정 정보를 갖고 있는 Predicate만을 찾아내는데 이를 위해 Emotional Predicate Dictionary를 구축하였고 이 사전에는 하나의 Predicate마다 미리 정의된 개념 클래스로 사상 시킬 수 있는 정보를 갖고 있다. 개념 클래스는 감정정보를 갖고 있는지, 어떤 감정인지, 어떤 상황에서 발생하는 감정인지에 대한 정보를 나타낸다. 자연어 텍스트가 Predicate으로 변환되고 다시 개념 클래스로 사상되고 나면 KBANN으로 구현된 Lazarus의 감정 생성 규칙에 적용시켜 최종적으로 인식된 감정을 판단한다. 실험을 통해 구현된 시스템이 인간이 인식한 감정과 약 70%이상 유사한 인식 결과를 나타냄을 보인다.

The progressive in English is taken to be an operator which takes a non-stative predicate and returns a predicate which denotes a process with a temporal frame around some definite time or event. When, it is combined with a predicate which has a culmination in the event, the sentence means that the culmination has not come yet. So the event denoted by the base predicate is not true at the current time. On the other hand, when it is combined with a predicate which has no culmination in the event, the event denoted by the base predicate is taken to be true. In this paper, this is explained by the semantics of the progressive based on the notion of contributiveness. I propose that a progressive sentence is verified by some subevents which are contributive to the current situation and the progress of the event beyond the threshold level of the event denoted by the base predicate. A sub-situation is contributive if the addition of it to the previous situation is more likely to lead to the whole situation than the previous situation.

Ontologies, the important implementation tools for semantic web, are widely used in various areas such as search, reasoning, and knowledge representation. Developing well-defined ontologies, however, requires a lot of resources in terms of time and materials. There have been efforts to construct ontologies automatically to overcome these problems. In this paper, ontologies are automatically constructed from the natural languages sentences directly. To do this, the analysis of morphemes and a sentence structure is performed at first. then, the program finds predicates inside the sentence and the predicates are transformed to the corresponding ontology predicates. For matching the corresponding ontology predicate from a predicate in the sentence, we develop the "predicate ontology". An experimental comparison between human ontology engineer and the program shows that the proposed system outperforms the human engineer in an accuracy.

Semantic role labeling (SRL) systems determine the semantic role labels of the arguments of predicates in natural language text. An SRL system usually needs to perform four tasks in sequence: Predicate Identification (PI), Predicate Classification (PC), Argument Identification (AI), and Argument Classification (AC). In this paper, we use the Korean Propbank to develop our Korean semantic role labeling system. We describe our Korean semantic role labeling system that uses sequence labeling with structured Support Vector Machine (SVM). The results of our experiments on the Korean Propbank dataset reveal that our method obtains a 97.13% F1 score on Predicate Identification and Classification (PIC), and a 76.96% F1 score on Argument Identification and Classification (AIC).

With five gifted and nine average elementary school students, this study attempted to make a comparative analysis on the characteristics of their scientific writings for earth science-related topics. The analysis found that all of the gifted students showed higher scores than the average in the writing sections of scientific nature, logical nature and creativity. Compared to the average scores, their creativity scores were far higher. By comparing and analyzing the predicates in the writings two groups wrote, I found that the gifted students used more sentences per topic than the average students. Both groups wrote the most numbers of sentences for Volcano-related topics. In the meantime, the gifted children used the least numbers of sentences for the related topics to atmospheric pollution and the average students did so for the related topics to fossils. By the analysis on the patterns of predicate, it was observed that both groups used material predicates most and verbal predicates least. As far as the second most used predicates are concerned, the gifted children used relational predicates and the average students used mental predicates.

The purpose of this paper is to explore the syntactic criteria for determining a secondary predicates as a predicate modifier or a conjunction, and to formalize the semantic aspects of the [-ke] structure as a predicate in Korean. Syntactically, the [-ke] structure is considered to be a secondary predicate when the shared arguments appear in both the [-ke] structure and the main verb structure. On the other hand, if they do not appear in both structures, the [-ke] structure is considered to be a connective element. Semantically the [-ke] structure has numerous aspects such as depictives, resultatives, objectivity, and emphasis. The depictives of the secondary predicate can be formalize as $p{\wedge}q$ where p represents a propositional expression of the secondary predicate and q is a propositional expression of the main verb. Resultatives have the logical form $q{\rightarrow}{\Box}p$, because the consequence has to always be true. However, objectivity has the logical form $q{\rightarrow}{\diamondsuit}p$, because the consequence can be either true or false. Emphasis is represented as $q{\rightarrow}p{\uparrow}$ because the secondary predicate represents the polarity of the event.

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%.

Shi (2000) claims that topics must be related to a syntactic position in the comment, thus denying the existence of dangling topics in Chinese. Under Shi's analysis, the dangling topic sentences in Chinese are not topic-comment but subject-predicate sentences. However, Shi's arguments are not without problems. In this paper we argue that topics in Chinese can be licensed not only by a syntactic gap but also by a semantic gap/variable without syntactic realization. Under our analysis, all the dangling topics discussed in Shi (2000) are, in fact, not subjects but topics licensed by a semantic gap/variable that can turn the relevant comment into an open predicate, thus licensing dangling topics and deriving well-formed topic-comment constructions. Our analysis fares better than Shi's in not only unifying the licensing mechanism of a topic to an open predicate without considering how the open predicate is derived, but also unifying the treatment of normal and dangling topics in Chinese,

Detecting visual relationships in an image is important in an image understanding task. It enables higher image understanding tasks, that is, predicting the next scene and understanding what occurs in an image. A visual relationship comprises of a subject, a predicate, and an object, and is related to visual, language, and spatial cues. The predicate explains the relationship between the subject and object and can be categorized into different categories such as prepositions and verbs. A large visual gap exists although the visual relationship is included in the same predicate. This study improves upon a previous study (that uses language cues using two losses) and a spatial cue (that only includes individual information) by adding relative information on the subject and object of the extant study. The architectural limitation is demonstrated and is overcome to detect all zero-shot visual relationships. A new problem is discovered, and an explanation of how it decreases performance is provided. The experiment is conducted on the VRD and VG datasets and a significant improvement over previous results is obtained.
