A Tool For Investigating Tile Synonymy Relation In A Sense Disambiguated Thesaurus

چکیده
This paper describes an exploration of the implicit synonymy relationship expressed by synonym lists in an on-line thesaurus. A series of automatic steps was taken to properly constrain this relationship. The resulting groupings of semantically related word senses are believed to constitute a useful tool for natural language processing and for work in lexicography.

متن کاملThe Exploration and Analysis of Using Multiple Thesaurus Types for Query Expansion in Information Retrieval
This paper proposes the use of multiple thesaurus types for query expansion in information retrieval. Hand-crafted thesaurus, corpus-based co-occurrence-based thesaurus and syntactic-relation-based thesaurus are combined and used as a tool for query expansion. A simple word sense disambiguation is performed to avoid misleading expansion terms. Experiments using TREC-7 collection proved that thi...
متن کاملSense-Based Biomedical Indexing and Retrieval
This paper tackles the problem of term ambiguity, especially for biomedical literature. We propose and evaluate two methods of Word Sense Disambiguation (WSD) for biomedical terms and integrate them to a sense-based document indexing and retrieval framework. Ambiguous biomedical terms in documents and queries are disambiguated using the Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) thesaurus and semantically...
