Language Research is a peer-reviewed academic journal which covers research on both theoretical and practical aspects of linguistics and language education. In addition to research reports, theoretical reviews and keynote articles will be considered for publication. The journal was first published in 1965 and is published three times a year by the Language Education Institute at Seoul National University, Korea. Language Research is one of the leading linguistics journals in Korea. In order to develop it as an international journal, we welcome and appreciate foreign researchers’ paper submissions. To submit a paper, click the E-Submission button on the journal website and follow the directions.

The Language Education Institute at Seoul National University was established in 1963 and has been playing an important role as a center for teaching and testing English, Korean and other foreign languages. It also plays a leading role in promoting academic research on linguistics and language education by publishing its academic journal Language Research and by hosting conferences.

Title: klue: korean language understanding evaluation.

Abstract: We introduce Korean Language Understanding Evaluation (KLUE) benchmark. KLUE is a collection of 8 Korean natural language understanding (NLU) tasks, including Topic Classification, SemanticTextual Similarity, Natural Language Inference, Named Entity Recognition, Relation Extraction, Dependency Parsing, Machine Reading Comprehension, and Dialogue State Tracking. We build all of the tasks from scratch from diverse source corpora while respecting copyrights, to ensure accessibility for anyone without any restrictions. With ethical considerations in mind, we carefully design annotation protocols. Along with the benchmark tasks and data, we provide suitable evaluation metrics and fine-tuning recipes for pretrained language models for each task. We furthermore release the pretrained language models (PLM), KLUE-BERT and KLUE-RoBERTa, to help reproducing baseline models on KLUE and thereby facilitate future research. We make a few interesting observations from the preliminary experiments using the proposed KLUE benchmark suite, already demonstrating the usefulness of this new benchmark suite. First, we find KLUE-RoBERTa-large outperforms other baselines, including multilingual PLMs and existing open-source Korean PLMs. Second, we see minimal degradation in performance even when we replace personally identifiable information from the pretraining corpus, suggesting that privacy and NLU capability are not at odds with each other. Lastly, we find that using BPE tokenization in combination with morpheme-level pre-tokenization is effective in tasks involving morpheme-level tagging, detection and generation. In addition to accelerating Korean NLP research, our comprehensive documentation on creating KLUE will facilitate creating similar resources for other languages in the future. KLUE is available at this https URL .
