Decision Trees For Sense Disambiguation Of Prepositions: Case Of 'Over'
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper proposes two decision trees for determining the meanings of the prepositional uses of over by using the contextual information. It first examines the meanings of the prepositional uses of over and then aims at identifying the contexts for interpreting the meanings. Some contexts are complementary features, and that makes the decision trees simple. The trees have been tested on a corpus, and the results are encouraging.

متن کاملPreposition Senses: Generalized Disambiguation Model
Our previous study on disambiguating the preposition “with” (using WordNet for hypernym and meronym relations, LCS for verb and preposition lexical information, and features of head and complement) looked promising enough to warrant study for other prepositions. Through investigation of ten frequently used prepositions, this paper describes general senses of prepositions and sense-case definiti...
متن کاملSense Disambiguation for Preposition ‘with’
Sense disambiguation for prepositions is used within a paraphrase recognition system. ‘With’ is chosen to explore our approach of using information from WordNet (hypernym and meronym relations) and LCS (verb lexical information); similar concepts can be used for other prepositions. This paper describes the senses of ‘with’, the disambiguation model, evaluation process, and results.
متن کاملAn Inventory of Preposition Relations
We describe an inventory of semantic relations that are expressed by prepositions. We define these relations by building on the word sense disambiguation task for prepositions and propose a mapping from preposition senses to the relation labels by collapsing semantically related senses across prepositions.
متن کاملAn Ontology-Based Approach to Disambiguation of Semantic Relations
This paper describes experiments in using machine learning for relation disambiguation. There have been succesfuld experiments in combining machine learning and ontologies, or light-weight ontologies such as WordNet, for word sense disambiguation. However, what we are trying to do, is to disambiguate complex concepts consisting of two simpler concepts and the relation that holds between them. T...
