A Proposal of Automatic Selection of Coarse-grained Semantic Classes for WSD
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a very simple method for selecting Base Level Concepts using some basic structural properties of WordNet. We also empirically demonstrate that these automatically derived set of Base Level Concepts group senses into an adequate level of abstraction in order to perform class-based Word Sense Disambiguation. In fact, a very naive Most Frequent classifier using the classes selected is able to perform a semantic tagging with accuracy figures over 75%.

Word vs. Class-Based Word Sense Disambiguation
As empirically demonstrated by the Word Sense Disambiguation (WSD) tasks of the last SensEval/SemEval exercises, assigning the appropriate meaning to words in context has resisted all attempts to be successfully addressed. Many authors argue that one possible reason could be the use of inappropriate sets of word meanings. In particular, WordNet has been used as a de-facto standard repository of...
متن کاملThe Role of Semantic Roles in Disambiguating Verb Senses
We describe an automatic Word Sense Disambiguation (WSD) system that disambiguates verb senses using syntactic and semantic features that encode information about predicate arguments and semantic classes. Our system performs at the best published accuracy on the English verbs of Senseval-2. We also experiment with using the gold-standard predicateargument labels from PropBank for disambiguating...
متن کاملDifferent Sense Granularities For Different Applications
This paper describes an hierarchical approach to WordNet sense distinctions that provides different types of automatic Word Sense Disambiguation (WSD) systems, which perform at varying levels of accuracy. For tasks where fine-grained sense distinctions may not be essential, an accurate coarse-grained WSD system may be sufficient. The paper discusses the criteria behind the three different level...
متن کاملSometimes Less Is More: Romanian Word Sense Disambiguation Revisited
Recent approaches to Word Sense Disambiguation (WSD) generally fall into two classes: (1) information-intensive approaches and (2) information-poor approaches. Our hypothesis is that for memory-based learning (MBL), a reduced amount of data is more beneficial than the full range of features used in the past. Our experiments show that MBL combined with a restricted set of features and a feature ...
متن کاملA Comparative Evaluation of Word Sense Disambiguation Algorithms for German
The present paper explores a wide range of word sense disambiguation (WSD) algorithms for German. These WSD algorithms are based on a suite of semantic relatedness measures, including path-based, information-content-based, and gloss-based methods. Since the individual algorithms produce diverse results in terms of precision and thus complement each other well in terms of coverage, a set of comb...
