[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Heeyoon] Daekyo announced on the 11th that it has acquired a new patent related to the core technology of 'KReaD,' a Korean reading comprehension index independently developed for the first time in the education industry.


'KReaD' is a Korean reading comprehension index developed through industry-academic cooperation research between Daekyo and the Reading Education Center at Gwangju National University of Education. It objectively shows the difficulty level of texts and the reading ability level of learners as numerical values.


The newly acquired patent pertains to a method and system for measuring the reading comprehension index through automatic analysis of Korean text. This technology automatically measures and analyzes various linguistic variables to quantitatively calculate the text difficulty level.


According to Daekyo, this core technology is effective in providing differentiated customized AI learning services tailored to the learner's level. It overcomes the limitations of bias caused by subjective judgment of evaluators in determining text difficulty and improves the efficiency of difficulty calculation. Additionally, 'KReaD' is planned to be utilized in Daekyo's AI-based digital learning programs in the future.



A Daekyo official stated, "With this patent acquisition, we have secured a unique technology that produces quantified indices serving as objective standards in Korean learning services," and added, "We plan to use it diversely to realize digital customized AI services not only in Korean learning but also in reading and other learning content."
