Analysis of Polysemy and Homographs of the Word "lead" in Roget's International Thesaurus, 3rd Edition
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper follows from previous research on the relatedness or un-relatedness, in Roget's International Thesaurus (RIT), of entries which have identical spellings. A comparison is made between the output from research on a VAX 11/780 computer-accessible version of RIT, the RIT text, and a micro-computer database of the hierarchical and cross-reference information of RIT.

متن کاملThe Semantic Structure of Roget’s Thesaurus Cross-References

Semantic patterns implicit in the data, at both the local and global levels of the Thesaurus structure, are identified.
متن کاملWord-Sense Disambiguation Using Statistical Models of Roget's Categories Trained on Large Corpora
This paper describes a program that disambignates English word senses in unrestricted text using statistical models of the major Roget's Thesaurus categories. Roget's categories serve as approximations of conceptual classes. The categories listed for a word in Roger's index tend to correspond to sense distinctions; thus selecting the most likely category provides a useful level of sense disambi...
متن کاملComplementing WordNet with Roget's and Corpus-based Thesauri for Information Retrieval
This paper proposes a method to overcome the drawbacks of WordNet when applied to information retrieval by complementing it with Roget 's thesaurus and corpus-derived thesauri. Words and relations which are not included in WordNet can be found in the corpus-derived thesauri. Effects of polysemy can be minimized with weighting method considering all query terms and all of the thesauri. Experimen...
