Word Sense Disambiguation Using Lexical Cohesion in the Context
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper designs a novel lexical hub to disambiguate word sense, using both syntagmatic and paradigmatic relations of words. It only employs the semantic network of WordNet to calculate word similarity, and the Edinburgh Association Thesaurus (EAT) to transform contextual space for computing syntagmatic and other domain relations with the target word. Without any back-off policy the result on the English lexical sample of SENSEVAL-2 shows that lexical cohesion based on edge-counting techniques is a good way of unsupervisedly disambiguating senses.

UofL: Word Sense Disambiguation Using Lexical Cohesion
One of the main challenges in the applications (i.e.: text summarization, question answering, information retrieval, etc.) of Natural Language Processing is to determine which of the several senses of a word is used in a given context. The problem is phrased as “Word Sense Disambiguation (WSD)” in the NLP community. This paper presents the dictionary based disambiguation technique that adopts t...

متن کاملKUNLP system using Classification Information Model
The classification information model or CIM classifies instances by considering the discrimination ability of their features, which was proven to be useful for word sense disambiguation at SENSEVAL-1. But the CIM has a problem of information loss. KUNLP system at SENSEVAL-2 uses a modified version of the CIM for word sense disambiguation. We used three types of features for word sense disambigu...
متن کاملCombining Lexical and Syntactic Features for Supervised Word Sense Disambiguation
The success of supervised learning approaches to word sense disambiguation is largely dependent on the features used to represent the context in which an ambiguous word occurs. Previous work has reached mixed conclusions; some suggest that combinations of syntactic and lexical features will perform most effectively. However, others have shown that simple lexical features perform well on their o...
متن کاملSimpLe: Lexical Simplification using Word Sense Disambiguation
Sentence simplification aims to reduce the reading complexity of a sentence by incorporating more accessible vocabulary and sentence structure. In this chapter we examine the process of lexical substitution and particularly the role that word sense disambiguation plays in this task. Most previous work substitutes difficult words using a predefined dictionary. We present the challenges faced dur...
