Analyzing Korean Dialogical Sentences with Situational Knowledge
Hea-Kyung Jeong, Yong-Seok Lee · 2007
Korean interface has been widely researched to provide a convenient and smart user interface in the Internet shopping mall area. Existing Korean interface systems have used only a morphological and/or a syntactic knowledge without considering semantics. Therefore, the system users must make a query with a complete Korean sentence without an ellipsis and an anaphora. For more natural interface, the system must be able to handle dialogical sentences using a situational knowledge. In this paper, we suggest Korean Interface that uses domain specific semantic information based on Sowa's Conceptual Structure: conceptual patterns, relational definitions, semantic structure conversion rules, and actors etc. First, we explain the roles of the information. And, we will show a methodology that translates several kinds of Korean sentences having same meaning into one semantic structure using the information. Also, we will show a method that transforms an incomplete Korean sentence into a complete semantic structure. The advantage of the suggested system can provide user with Korean interface kindly by processing a dialogical query sentence using a situational knowledge. Key words: Korean interface, dialogical sentences, a situational knowledge, domain specific semantic information, semantic structure. 1.
