In Korean-English mixed documents, translated technical words are usually used with the attached full words or original words enclosed with parenthesis. In this paper, a collective method is presented to recognize and extract the translation phrases with using a base translation dictionary. In order to process the unregistered title words and translation words in the dictionary, a phonetic similarity matching method, a translation partial matching method, and a compound word matching method are newly proposed. The experiment result of each method was measured in F-measure(the alpha is set to 0.4) ; exact matching of dictionary terms as a baseline method showed 23.8%, the hybrid method of translation partial matching and phonetic similarity matching 75.9%, and the compound word matching method including the hybrid method 77.3%, which is 3.25 times better than the baseline method.

Unlike structured data which are gathered and saved in a predefined structure, unstructured text data which are mostly written in natural language have larger applications recently due to the emergence of web 2.0. Text mining is one of the most important big data analysis techniques that extracts meaningful information in the text because it has not only increased in the amount of text data but also human being's emotion is expressed directly. In this study, we used R program, an open source software for statistical analysis, and studied algorithm implementation to conduct analyses (such as Frequency Analysis, Cluster Analysis, Word Cloud, Social Network Analysis). Especially, to focus on our research scope, we used keyword extract method based on a Data Dictionary. By applying in real cases, we could find that R is very useful as a statistical analysis software working on variety of OS and with other languages interface.

Sentiment analysis is the automated process of understanding attitudes and opinions about a given topic from written or spoken text. One of the sentiment analysis approaches is a dictionary-based approach, in which a sentiment dictionary plays an much important role. In this paper, we propose a method to automatically generate Korean sentiment lexicon from the well-known English sentiment lexicon called VADER (Valence Aware Dictionary and sEntiment Reasoner). The proposed method consists of three steps. The first step is to build a Korean-English bilingual lexicon using a Korean-English parallel corpus. The bilingual lexicon is a set of pairs between VADER sentiment words and Korean morphemes as candidates of Korean sentiment words. The second step is to construct a bilingual words graph using the bilingual lexicon. The third step is to run the label propagation algorithm throughout the bilingual graph. Finally a new Korean sentiment lexicon is generated by repeatedly applying the propagation algorithm until the values of all vertices converge. Empirically, the dictionary-based sentiment classifier using the Korean sentiment lexicon outperforms machine learning-based approaches on the KMU sentiment corpus and the Naver sentiment corpus. In the future, we will apply the proposed approach to generate multilingual sentiment lexica.

Various Korean word sense disambiguation methods have been proposed using small scale of sense-tagged corpra and dictionary definitions to calculate entropy information, conditional probability, mutual information and etc. for each method. This paper proposes a method using Korean Word Space model which builds word vectors from a large scale of sense-tagged corpus and disambiguates word senses with the similarity calculation between the word vectors. Experiment with Sejong morph sense-tagged corpus showed 94% precision for 200 sentences(583 word types), which is much superior to the other known methods.

Now named-entity recognition(NER) as a part of information extraction has been used in the fields of information retrieval as well as question-answering systems. Unlike words, named-entities(NEs) are generated and changed steadily in documents on the Web, newspapers, and so on. The NE generation causes an unknown word problem and makes many application systems with NER difficult. In order to alleviate this problem, this paper proposes a new feature generation method for machine learning-based NER. In general features in machine learning-based NER are related with words, but entities in named-entity dictionaries are related to phrases. So the entities are not able to be directly used as features of the NER systems. This paper proposes an encoding scheme as a feature generation method which converts phrase entities into features of word units. Futhermore, due to this scheme, entities with semantic information in WordNet can be converted into features of the NER systems. Through our experiments we have shown that the performance is increased by about 6% of F1 score and the errors is reduced by about 38%.

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.

The paper presents a hybrid mcthod for disambiguation of the verb meaning in the machine translation. The presented verb translation algorithm is to perform the concept-based method and the statistics-based method simultaneously. It uses a collocation dictionary, WordNct and the statistical information extracted from corpus. In the transfer phase of the machine translation, it tries to find the target word of the source verb. If it fails, it refers to Word Net to try to find it by calculating word similarities between the logical constraints of the source sentence and those in the collocation dictionary. At the same time, it refers to the statistical information extracted from corpus to try to find it by calculating co-occurrence similarity knowledge. The experimental result shows that the algorithm performs more accurate verb translation than the other algorithms and improves accuracy of the verb translation by 24.8% compared to the collocation-based method.

Sentiment lexicon is an essential element for expressing sentiment on a text or recognizing sentiment from a text. We propose a graph-based semi-supervised learning method to construct a sentiment dictionary as sentiment lexicon set. In particular, we focus on the construction of domain-specific sentiment dictionary. The proposed method makes up a graph according to lexicons and proximity among lexicons, and sentiments of some lexicons which already know their sentiment values are propagated throughout all of the lexicons on the graph. There are two typical types of the sentiment lexicon, sentiment words and sentiment phrase, and we construct a sentiment dictionary by creating each graph of them and infer sentiment of all sentiment lexicons. In order to verify our proposed method, we constructed a sentiment dictionary specific to the movie domain, and conducted sentiment classification experiments with it. As a result, it have been shown that the classification performance using the sentiment dictionary is better than the other using typical general-purpose sentiment dictionary.

This paper aims to investigate how word order interacts with cliticization in Sakizaya, a Formosan language. This paper looks into nominative and genitive case markers from a corpus-based approach. The data are collected from an online dictionary of Sakizaya, and they are classified into two word orders: nominative case marker preceding genitive case marker and vice versa. The data are also divided into three categories, according to the demarcation of the case markers, which include right, left, or no demarcation. The corpus includes 700 sentences in the construction of predicate + noun phrase + noun phrase. The results suggest that the two case markers tend to be parsed into the preceding word and show right demarcation. The results also reveal that there are type difference and distance effect of the case markers on the cliticization. Nominative case markers show more right demarcation than genitive case markers do in the corpus. Also, the closer the case markers are to the predicate, the more possible the case markers undergo cliticization.

The word sense disambiguation problem is to find the correct sense of an ambiguous word having multiple senses in a dictionary in a sentence. We regard this problem as a multi-class classification problem and classify the ambiguous word by using Support Vector Machines. Context words of the ambiguous word, which are extracted from Sejong sense tagged corpus, are represented to two kinds of vector space. One vector space is composed of context words vectors having binary weights. The other vector space has vectors where the context words are mapped by word embedding model. After experiments, we acquired accuracy of 87.0% with context word vectors and 86.0% with word embedding model.
