In this paper, we maintain that case makers '에e' and '에게ege', and '에서eseo' and '에게서egeseo' are not two separate morphemes but are simply allomorphs of the same morphemes respectively. When '에e' and '에게ege' are used as a dative marker, they show exactly the same semantic function and are in complementary distribution in relation to the semantic features of their preceding noun; that is, if the preceding noun is an animate noun, '에게ege' is used and '에e' is used if not. Also, '에게서egeseo' and '에서eseo' as ablative and locative case makers show exactly the same semantic function and show complementary distribution depending on whether the preceding noun is animate or non-animate. Therefore, we assume that these markers are semantically conditioned allomorphs.

With the increase of multimedia information such as images, researches have been realized on how to extract the high-level semantic information from low-level visual information, and a variety of techniques have been proposed to generate this information automatically. However, most of these technologies extract the semantic information between single images, it's difficult to extract semantic information when a combination of multiple objects within the image. In this paper, we extract the visual features of objects within the image and training images stored in the DB and the features of each object are defined by measuring the similarity. Using ontology reasoner, each object feature within images infers the semantic information by positional relation and associative relation. With this, it's possible to infer semantic information between objects within images, we proposed a method for inferring more complicated and a variety of high-level semantic information.

Nowadays, many investigators are studying various methodologies concerning event expression for semantic retrieval of video data. However, most of the parts are still using annotation based retrieval that is defined into annotation of each data and content based retrieval using low-level features. So, we propose a method of creation of the motion unit and extracting event through the unit for the more semantic retrieval than existing methods. First, we classify motions by event unit. Second, we define semantic unit about classified motion of object. For using these to event extraction, we create rules that are able to match the low-level features, from which we are able to retrieve semantic event as a unit of video shot. For the evaluation of availability, we execute an experiment of extraction of semantic event in video image and get approximately 80% precision rate.

In a goal-oriented dialogue, speaker's intention can be approximated by a semantic structure that consists of a pair of a speech act and a concept sequence. Therefore, it is very important to correctly identify the semantic structure of an utterance for implementing an intelligent dialogue system. In this paper, we propose a model to efficiently analyze the semantic structures based on an active teaming method. To reduce the burdens of high-level linguistic analysis, the proposed model only uses morphological features and previous semantic structures as input features. To improve the precisions of semantic structure analysis, the proposed model adopts CRFs(Conditional Random Fields), which show high performances in natural language processing, as an underlying statistical model. In the experiments in a schedule arrangement domain, we found that the proposed model shows similar performances(92.4% in speech act analysis and 89.8% in concept sequence analysis) to the previous models although it uses about a third of training data.

The purpose of this research is to study the semantic characteristics of outdoor brand names by analyzing 94 brand names in domestic market, so as to propose ways to develop strategic brand names. The results are as follows. When it comes to outdoor brand products, the emphasis is placed on their functional features. Thus, the majority of outdoor brands surveyed in this Study were using strategic descriptive brand names which clearly denote the properties and effects of the relevant products to leave lasting impressions on consumers'minds. In other words, the outdoor brands surveyed herein were using brands which inform consumers of the specific business and product categories, express the concept of the brands, and provide them with information on the features and benefits of the products such as high quality, high-class, and luxurious lifestyle. In conclusion, the components of outdoor brand names are crucial elements which symbolize the concepts, functions or features of the relevant brands. In order to develop brand names consisting of components which build brand powers and enhance brand images, it is imparetive to develop more unique and characteristic brand names.

In this paper, we propose a enhancing document clustering method using term re-weighting by the expanded term. The proposed method extracts the important terms of documents in cluster using semantic features, which it can well represent the topics of document to expand term using WordNet. Besides, the method can improve the performance of document clustering using re-weighting terms based on the expanded terms. The experimental results demonstrate appling the proposed method to document clustering methods achieves better performance than the normal document clustering methods.

The big challenge in current content-based image retrieval systems is to reduce the semantic gap between the low level-features and high-level concepts. In this paper, we have proposed a novel framework for efficient image retrieval to improve the retrieval results significantly as a means to addressing this problem. In our proposed method, we first extracted a strong set of image features by using the dual-tree rotated complex wavelet filters (DT-RCWF) and dual tree-complex wavelet transform (DT-CWT) jointly, which obtains features in 12 different directions. Second, we presented a relevance feedback (RF) framework for efficient image retrieval by employing a support vector machine (SVM), which learns the semantic relationship among images using the knowledge, based on the user interaction. Extensive experiments show that there is a significant improvement in retrieval performance with the proposed method using SVMRF compared with the retrieval performance without RF. The proposed method improves retrieval performance from 78.5% to 92.29% on the texture database in terms of retrieval accuracy and from 57.20% to 94.2% on the Corel image database, in terms of precision in a much lower number of iterations.

The goal of few-shot semantic segmentation is to build a network that quickly adapts to novel classes with extreme data shortage regimes. Most existing few-shot segmentation methods leverage single or multiple prototypes from extracted support features. Although there have been promising results for natural images, these methods are not directly applicable to the aerial image domain. A key factor in few-shot segmentation on aerial images is to effectively exploit information that is robust against extreme changes in background and object scales. In this paper, we propose a Mask-Guided Attention module to extract more comprehensive support features for few-shot segmentation in aerial images. Taking advantage of the support ground-truth masks, the area correlated to the foreground object is highlighted and enables the support encoder to extract comprehensive support features with contextual information. To facilitate reproducible studies of the task of few-shot semantic segmentation in aerial images, we further present the few-shot segmentation benchmark iSAID-, which is constructed from a large-scale iSAID dataset. Extensive experimental results including comparisons with the state-of-the-art methods and ablation studies demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Image semantic segmentation and dehazing are key tasks in the computer vision. In recent years, researches in both tasks have achieved substantial improvements in performance with the development of Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). However, most of the previous works for semantic segmentation assume the images are captured in clear weather and show degraded performance under hazy images with low contrast and faded color. Meanwhile, dehazing aims to recover clear image given observed hazy image, which is an ill-posed problem and can be alleviated with additional information about the image. In this work, we propose a deep multi-task network for simultaneous semantic segmentation and dehazing. The proposed network takes single haze image as input and predicts dense semantic segmentation map and clear image. The visual information getting refined during the dehazing process can help the recognition task of semantic segmentation. On the other hand, semantic features obtained during the semantic segmentation process can provide cues for color priors for objects, which can help dehazing process. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed multi-task approach, showing improved performance compared to the separate networks.

As the networks connect the world, enterprises tend to move manufacturing activities into virtual spaces. Since different applications use different data terminology, it becomes a problem to interoperate, interchange, and manage electronic data among different systems. According to RTI, approximately one billion dollar has been being spent yearly for product data exchange and interoperability. As commercial CAD systems have brought in the concept of design feature for the sake of interoperability, terminologies of design feature need to be harmonized. In order to define design feature terminology for integration, knowledge about feature definitions of different CAD systems should be considered. STEP (Standard for the Exchange of Product model data) have attempted to solve this problem, but it defines only syntactic data representation so that semantic data integration is unattainable. In this paper, we utilize the ontology concept to build a data model of design feature which can be a semantic standard of feature definitions of CAD systems. Using feature ontology, we implement an integrated virtual database and a simple system which searches and edits design features in a semantic way. This paper proposes a methodology for integrating modeling features of CAD systems.
