چکیده

Common large digital text corpora do not distinguish between different meanings of word forms, intense manual effort has to be done for disambiguation tasks when querying for homonyms or polysemes. To improve this situation, we ran experiments with automatic word sense disambiguation methods operating directly on the output of the corpus query. In this paper, we present experiments with topic models to cluster search result snippets in order to separate occurrences of homonymous or polysemous queried words by their meanings.

An Automatic Method for Generating Sense Tagged Corpora

The unavailability of very large corpora with semantically disambiguated words is a major limitation in text processing research. For example, statistical methods for word sense disambiguation of free text are known to achieve high accuracy results when large corpora are available to develop context rules, to train and test them. This paper presents a novel approach to automatically generate ar...

Comparing methods for automatic acquisition of Topic Signatures

The main goal of this work is to compare two methods for building Topic Signatures, which are vectors of weighted words acquired from large corpora. We used two different software tools, ExRetriever and Infomap, for acquiring Topic Signatures from corpus. Using these tools, we retrieve sense examples from large text collections. Both systems construct a query for each word sense using WordNet. ...

Bootstrapping Large Sense Tagged Corpora

The performance of Word Sense Disambiguation systems largely depends on the availability of sense tagged corpora. Since the semantic annotations are usually done by humans, the size of such corpora is limited to a handful of tagged texts. This paper proposes a generation algorithm that may be used to automatically create large sense tagged corpora. The approach is evaluated through comparative ...

Morphological annotation of Old and Middle Hungarian corpora

In our paper, we present a computational morphology for Old and Middle Hungarian used in two research projects that aim at creating morphologically annotated corpora of Old and Middle Hungarian. In addition, we present the web-based disambiguation tool used in the semi-automatic disambiguation of the annotations and the structured corpus query tool that has a unique but very useful feature of m...
