Multilingual WSD with Just a Few Lines of Code: the BabelNet API
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we present an API for programmatic access to BabelNet – a wide-coverage multilingual lexical knowledge base – and multilingual knowledge-rich Word Sense Disambiguation (WSD). Our aim is to provide the research community with easy-to-use tools to perform multilingual lexical semantic analysis and foster further research in this direction.

Joining Forces Pays Off: Multilingual Joint Word Sense Disambiguation
We present a multilingual joint approach to Word Sense Disambiguation (WSD). Our method exploits BabelNet, a very large multilingual knowledge base, to perform graphbased WSD across different languages, and brings together empirical evidence from these languages using ensemble methods. The results show that, thanks to complementing wide-coverage multilingual lexical knowledge with robust graph-...
متن کاملSemEval-2015 Task 13: Multilingual All-Words Sense Disambiguation and Entity Linking
In this paper we present the Multilingual AllWords Sense Disambiguation and Entity Linking task. Word Sense Disambiguation (WSD) and Entity Linking (EL) are well-known problems in the Natural Language Processing field and both address the lexical ambiguity of language. Their main difference lies in the kind of meaning inventories that are used: EL uses encyclopedic knowledge, while WSD uses lex...
متن کاملDAEBAK!: Peripheral Diversity for Multilingual Word Sense Disambiguation
We introduce Peripheral Diversity (PD) as a knowledge-based approach to achieve multilingual Word Sense Disambiguation (WSD). PD exploits the frequency and diverse use of word senses in semantic subgraphs derived from larger sense inventories such as BabelNet, Wikipedia, and WordNet in order to achieve WSD. PD’s f -measure scores for SemEval 2013 Task 12 outperform the Most Frequent Sense (MFS)...
متن کاملA Quick Tour of BabelNet 1.1
In this paper we present BabelNet 1.1, a brand-new release of the largest “encyclopedic dictionary”, obtained from the automatic integration of the most popular computational lexicon of English, i.e. WordNet, and the largest multilingual Web encyclopedia, i.e. Wikipedia. BabelNet 1.1 covers 6 languages and comes with a renewed Web interface, graph explorer and programmatic API. BabelNet is avai...
متن کاملAn Enhanced Lesk Word Sense Disambiguation Algorithm through a Distributional Semantic Model
This paper describes a new Word Sense Disambiguation (WSD) algorithm which extends two well-known variations of the Lesk WSD method. Given a word and its context, Lesk algorithm exploits the idea of maximum number of shared words (maximum overlaps) between the context of a word and each definition of its senses (gloss) in order to select the proper meaning. The main contribution of our approach...
