Giving Space to Your Message: Assistive Word Segmentation for the Electronic Typing of Digital Minorities
Won Ik Cho, Sung Jun Cheon, Woo Hyun Kang, Ji Won Kim, Nam Soo Kim
For readability and disambiguation of the written text, appropriate word segmentation is recommended for documentation, and it also holds for the digitized texts. If the language is agglutinative while far from scriptio continua, for instance in the Korean language, the problem becomes more significant. However, some device users these days find it challenging to communicate via key stroking, not only for handicap but also for being unskilled. In this study, we propose a real-time assistive technology that utilizes an automatic word segmentation, designed for digital minorities who are not familiar with electronic typing. We propose a data-driven system trained upon a spoken Korean language corpus with various non-canonical expressions and dialects, guaranteeing the comprehension of contextual information. Through quantitative and qualitative comparison with other text processing toolkits, we show the reliability of the proposed system and its fit with colloquial and non-normalized texts, which fulfills the aim of supportive technology.
