The work suggests how linguistic phenomena such as metonymy and polysemy might be exploitable for semantic tagging of lexical items....

Enriching a lexicographic tool with domain definitions: Problems and solutions

However, automatic definition extraction of this domain information from specialized resources has revealed certain methodological problems in definition construction. This paper presents some problems encountered in automatic definition extraction that are mainly re...
