TKB-UO: Using Sense Clustering for WSD
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper describes the clustering-based approach to Word Sense Disambiguation that is followed by the TKB-UO system at SemEval-2007. The underlying disambiguation method only uses WordNet as external resource, and does not use training data. Results obtained in both Coarse-grained English all-words task (task 7) and English fine-grained all-words subtask (task 17) are presented.

Semi-supervised Clustering for Word Instances and Its Effect on Word Sense Disambiguation
We propose a supervised word sense disambiguation (WSD) system that uses features obtained from clustering results of word instances. Our approach is novel in that we employ semi-supervised clustering that controls the fluctuation of the centroid of a cluster, and we select seed instances by considering the frequency distribution of word senses and exclude outliers when we introduce “must-link”...
متن کاملSense-Aware Statistical Machine Translation using Adaptive Context-Dependent Clustering
Statistical machine translation (SMT) systems use local cues from n-gram translation and language models to select the translation of each source word. Such systems do not explicitly perform word sense disambiguation (WSD), although this would enable them to select translations depending on the hypothesized sense of each word. Previous attempts to constrain word translations based on the result...
متن کاملDocument Clustering using Word Sense Disambiguation
In computational linguistics, word sense disambiguation (WSD) is the problem of determining in which sense a word having a number of distinct senses is used in a given sentence . This paper handles text document clustering as one of the major tasks of text processing. Document clustering is the process of finding out groups of information from the text documents and cluster these documents into...
متن کاملA clustering-based Approach for Unsupervised Word Sense Disambiguation
Clustering methods have been extensively used in many Information Processing tasks in order to capture unknown object categories. However, clustering has been scarcely used as a sense labeling method for Word Sense Disambiguation (WSD), that is, as a way to identify groups of semantically related word senses that can be successfully used in a disambiguation process. In this paper, we present an...
متن کاملClustering dictionary definitions using Amazon Mechanical Turk
Vocabulary tutors need word sense disambiguation (WSD) in order to provide exercises and assessments that match the sense of words being taught. Using expert annotators to build a WSD training set for all the words supported would be too expensive. Crowdsourcing that task seems to be a good solution. However, a first required step is to define what the possible sense labels to assign to word oc...
