Korean Language Engineering: Current Status Of The Information Platform

Language engineering implements functions of a language and information via computers. The need for language engineering platforms has been generally recognized and several researches are being undertaken around the world. Our goal is to establish Korean information platform of linguistic resources and tools for Korean language and information communities. The platform will support researchers and engineers with well-developed and standardized resources and application tools thereby avoiding duplicate activities from scratch and amplifying overall effort on the domain. This paper reports the components and the current status of the project, and the importance of the effort.
