Although automatic Word Sense Disambiguation (WSD) is now an established task within empirically-based computational approaches to NLP, the suitability of the available set (and granularity) of senses is still a problem. Application domains exhibit speci c behaviors that cannot be fully ...

lexical ambiguity can be syntactic If it involves mare than one grammatical category for a single word, or semantic If more than one meoning con be associated with a word. In thls article we discuss the application of o Boyesion-network model In the resolutlon of lexical ambiguities of both types. The network we propose comprises a parsing subnetwork, which can be constructed automatlcolly for ...
