An Enhanced Mapping Scheme of the Universal Part-Of-Speech for Korean

When mapping a language specific Part-Of-Speech (POS) tag set to the Universal POS tag set (UPOS), it is critical to consider the individual language's linguistic features and the UPOS definitions. In this paper, we present an enhanced Sejong POS mapping to the UPOS in accordance with the Korean linguistic typology and the substantive definitions of the UPOS categories. This work updated one third of the Sejong POS mapping to the UPOS. We also introduced a new mapping for the KAIST POS tag set, another widely used Korean POS tag set, to the UPOS.
