Subjectivity word sense disambiguation [PDF]
Proceedings of the 2009 Conference on Empirical Methods in Natural Language Processing Volume 1 - EMNLP '09, 2009 This paper investigates a new task, subjectivity word sense disambiguation (SWSD), which is to automatically determine which word instances in a corpus are being used with subjective senses, and which are being used with objective senses. We provide empirical evidence that SWSD is more feasible than full word sense disambiguation, and that it can be ...

Word Sense Disambiguation [PDF]
, 2012 Word-sense disambiguation (WSD) is the process of identifying the meanings of words in context. This article begins with discussing the origins of the problem in the earliest machine translation systems. Early attempts to solve the WSD problem suffered from a lack of coverage.

Memory-Based Word Sense Disambiguation [PDF]
Computers and the Humanities, 2000 We describe a memory-based classification architecture for word sense disambiguation and its application to the SENSEVAL evaluation task. For each ambiguous word, a semantic word expert is automatically trained using a memory-based approach. In each expert, selecting the correct sense of a word in a new context is achieved by finding the closest match ...

Using Linked Disambiguated Distributional Networks for Word Sense Disambiguation [PDF]
Proceedings of the 1st Workshop on Sense, Concept and Entity
Representations and their Applications, 2017 We introduce a new method for unsupervised knowledge-based word sense disambiguation (WSD) based on a resource that links two types of sense-aware lexical networks: one is induced from a corpus using distributional semantics, the other is manually constructed.

Word sense disambiguation using Conceptual Density [PDF]
Proceedings of the 16th conference on Computational linguistics -, 1996 This paper presents a method for the resolution of lexical ambiguity of nouns and its automatic evaluation over the Brown Corpus. The method relies on the use of the wide-coverage noun taxonomy of WordNet and the notion of conceptual distance among concepts, captured by a Conceptual Density formula developed for this purpose.

Word-sense disambiguation using decomposable models [PDF]
Proceedings of the 32nd annual meeting on Association for Computational Linguistics -, 1994 Most probabilistic classifiers used for word-sense disambiguation have either been based on only one contextual feature or have used a model that is simply assumed to characterize the interdependencies among multiple contextual features. In this paper, a different approach to formulating a probabilistic model is presented along with a case study of the

Word domain disambiguation via word sense disambiguation [PDF]
Proceedings of the Human Language Technology Conference of the NAACL, Companion Volume: Short Papers on XX - NAACL '06, 2006 Word subject domains have been widely used to improve the performance of word sense disambiguation algorithms. However, comparatively little effort has been devoted so far to the disambiguation of word subject domains. The few existing approaches have focused on the development of algorithms specific to word domain disambiguation.

Word Sense Disambiguation: A Survey
International Journal of Control Theory and Computer Modeling, 2015 In this paper, we made a survey on Word Sense Disambiguation (WSD). Near about in all major languages around the world, research in WSD has been conducted upto different extents. In this paper, we have gone through a survey regarding the different approaches adopted in different research works, the State of the Art in the performance in this domain ...

Determining the difficulty of Word Sense Disambiguation [PDF]
Journal of Biomedical Informatics, 2014 Automatic processing of biomedical documents is made difficult by the fact that many of the terms they contain are ambiguous. Word Sense Disambiguation (WSD) systems attempt to resolve these ambiguities and identify the correct meaning. However, the published literature on WSD systems for biomedical documents report considerable differences in ...

Dutch word sense disambiguation [PDF]
Proceedings of the ACL-02 workshop on Word sense disambiguation recent successes and future directions -, 2002 We describe a new version of the Dutch word sense disambiguation system trained and tested on a corrected version of the SENSEVAL-2 data. The system is an ensemble of word experts; each word expert is a memory-based classifier of which the parameters are automatically determined through cross-validation on training material.
