چکیده

We have developed an online interface for running all the current state-of-the-art algorithms for WSD. This is motivated by the fact that exhaustive comparison of a new Word Sense Disambiguation (WSD) algorithm with existing state-of-the-art algorithms is a tedious task. This impediment is due to one of the following reasons: (1) the source code of the earlier approach is not available and there is a considerable overhead in implementing it or (2) the source code/binary is available but there is some overhead in using it due to system requirements, portability issues, customization issues and software dependencies. A simple tool which has no overhead for the user and has minimal system requirements would greatly benefit the researchers. Our system currently supports 3 languages, viz., English, Hindi and Marathi, and requires only a web-browser to run. To demonstrate the usability of our system, we compare the performance of current state-of-the-art algorithms on 3 publicly available datasets.

Subcategorization Acquisition as an Evaluation Method for WSD

Evaluation of word sense disambiguation (WSD) systems is often based on machine-readable dictionaries (MRDs). Such evaluation typically employs a set of fine-grained dictionary senses and considers them all to be equally important. In this paper, we propose a novel evaluation method for WSD systems in the context of automatic subcategorization acquisition. Building on an extant subcategorizatio...

WSD system based on specialized Hidden Markov Model (upv-shmm-eaw)

We present a supervised approach to Word Sense Disambiguation (WSD) based on Specialized Hidden Markov Models. We used as training data the Semcor corpus and the test data set provided by Senseval 2 competition and as dictionary the Wordnet 1.6. We evaluated our system on the English all-word task of the Senseval-3 competition. 1 Description of the WSD System We consider WSD to be a tagging pro...

Improving Text-to-Pictograph Translation Through Word Sense Disambiguation

We describe the implementation of a Word Sense Disambiguation (WSD) tool in a Dutch Text-to-Pictograph translation system, which converts textual messages into sequences of pictographic images. The system is used in an online platform for Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC). In the original translation process, the appropriate sense of a word was not disambiguated before converting...

Word Sense Disambiguation-A Survey

Word sense disambiguation (WSD) is a linguistically based mechanism for automatically defining the correct sense of a word in the context. WSD is a long standing problem in computational linguistics. A particular word may have different meanings in different contexts. For human beings, it is easy to extract the correct meaning by analyzing the sentences. In the area of natural language processi...

Generating quality word sense disambiguation test sets based on MeSH indexing

Word sense disambiguation (WSD) determines the correct meaning of a word that has more than one meaning, and is a critical step in biomedical natural language processing, as interpretation of information in text can be correct only if the meanings of their component terms are correctly identified first. Quality evaluation sets are important to WSD because they can be used as representative samp...
