Word Sense Disambiguation with a Corpus-Based Semantic Network
نویسندگان
چکیده
Determining the meaning of words in text is an important process in natural language processing. In this paper, we propose a new method for word sense disambiguation that uses a corpus-based semantic network. Creating a semantic network that represents semantic distances among words in general, we resolve the ambiguities activating the network. Theoretically, our method needs no annotation on the corpus from which a CSN is created and also makes the data sparseness problem irrelevant. Practically, it achieved a success rate of 92.1%, which is better than those of other comparable studies.

Maximizing Semantic Relatedness to Perform Word Sense Disambiguation
This article presents a method of word sense disambiguation that assigns a target word the sense that is most related to the senses of its neighboring words. We explore the use of measures of similarity and relatedness that are based on finding paths in a concept network, information content derived from a large corpus, and word sense glosses. We observe that measures of relatedness are useful ...
متن کاملWord Space
Representations for semantic information about words are necessary for many applications of neural networks in natural language processing. This paper describes an efficient, corpus-based method for inducing distributed semantic representations for a large number of words (50,000) from lexical coccurrence statistics by means of a large-scale linear regression. The representations are successful...
متن کاملDistributional Semantics Approach to Thai Word Sense Disambiguation
Word sense disambiguation is one of the most important open problems in natural language processing applications such as information retrieval and machine translation. Many approach strategies can be employed to resolve word ambiguity with a reasonable degree of accuracy. These strategies are: knowledgebased, corpus-based, and hybrid-based. This paper pays attention to the corpus-based strategy...
متن کاملRaw Corpus Word Sense Disambiguation
A wide range of approaches have been applied to word sense disambiguation. However, most require manually crafted knowledge such as annotated text, machine readable dictionaries or thesari, semantic networks, or aligned bilingual corpora. The reliance on these knowledge sources limits portability since they generally exist only for selected domains and languages. This poster presents a corpus-b...
متن کاملSemantic Similarity Functions in Word Sense Disambiguation
This paper presents a method of improving the results of automatic Word Sense Disambiguation by generalizing nouns appearing in a disambiguated context to concepts. A corpus-based semantic similarity function is used for that purpose, by substituting appearances of particular nouns with a set of the most closely related similar words. We show that this approach may be applied to both supervised...
