Sejong Korean Corpora in the Making

Proceedings of the Fourth International Conference on Language Resources and Evaluation (LREC 2004)

Abstract

We introduce a set of Korean corpora in the making. One of them is a corpus consisting of morphologically analyzed Korean words and it is called "Sejong Morph Tagged Corpus". It is a part of Sejong Corpora, which are the results of a government-sponsored language resources compiling project in Korea. We give an outline of the corpus building component of the project and describe in some detail "Sejong Morph Tagged Corpus". The latter is being further processed for disambiguation to be turned into "Sejong Morph Sense Tagged Corpus" and into a Korean Treebank of syntactically parsed sentences.
