 Evolution, communication and the proper function of language
For Millikan, except in marginal and untypical cases, these further processes consist in strict disambiguation, that is, in the selection of one of the possible decodings of the utterance.
Present studies of disambiguation in psycholinguistics (which tend to show that all the senses of a lexical item are unconsciously activated), and in pragmatics (which point the Gricean way) do not support the view that the richness of communicated meanings is based on massive ambiguity.
Since Millikan gives no indication of the inferential pattern involved in the kind of massive disambiguation she is hypothesising, there is no reason to assume that it would be lighter than relevance-based, or even than standard Gricean inference.

 A Memory-Based Model of Syntactic Analysis
Most probabilistic disambiguation models therefore build directly on that work: they characterize the probabilities of sentence-analyses by means of a "stochastic grammar", constructed out of a competence grammar by augmenting the rules with application probabilities derived from a corpus.
Linguistic disambiguation involves classification under an ambiguous definition of the "case description language", i.e., the formal representation of the utterance analyses, which is usually a grammar.
Syntactic disambiguation is indeed a classification task in the presence of an infinite class-space.

To this end, we have developed a WSD system, based on parallel corpora, which exploits the common intuition according to which words that are reciprocal translations in a parallel texts should be linked to the same(or closely related) interlingual concepts.
The challenge of this approach, besides its high accuracy and fine-grained disambiguation is that it may be used to automatically sense-tag corpora in not only one language, but rather several at once and by the same sense inventory.
WSD is evaluated on an Romanian-English bitext, extracted form the multilingual parallel corpus "1984", against a hand sense-tagging used as a Gold-Standard.

Experiments show that it obtains large accuracy gains on this task compared to the expected performance of state-of-the-art models that were developed for the less stringent task of mining comparable sentence pairs.
NTPC is particularly well suited for natural language applications involving high-dimensional feature spaces, such as bracketing and disambiguation tasks, since its easily customizable template-driven learner allows efficient search over the kind of complex feature combinations that have typically eluded the base models.
We investigate the utility of right-context (look-ahead information) in incremental left-to-right language models with word sense disambiguation, and discover somewhat unexpectedly that using right-context in addition to left-context (history) may actually reduce accuracy.
