  Syntax Definition for Language Prototyping: Introduction
A number of general properties of disambiguation filters is defined and several case studies are discussed including disambiguation by means of priorities.
Although disambiguation filters give an abstract account of disambiguation, implementation of disambiguation by means of a filter applied to the parse forest after parsing can be too inefficient for a number of disambiguation methods.
Disambiguation by means of priorities is implemented in the parser generator.

 BioMed Central | Full text | Machine learning and word sense disambiguation in the biomedical domain: design and ...
Podowski [28] built a two-step classification system to disambiguate gene symbols: the first classifier determined whether the word was a gene versus a non-gene, and the other determined the appropriate gene for a symbol classified as a gene by the first classifier.
The plots for the four different sense distributions are very similar and actually agree with results obtained indicating that the effect of the different distributions on the error rate is insignificant.
Four different sample sizes were used (20, 40, 80 and 120), and for each, a proportional sample for each sense was obtained based on the particular distribution.

 BioMed Central | Full text | Thesaurus-based disambiguation of gene symbols
Overall accuracy of the disambiguation algorithm, defined as the percentage of abstracts in our test set in which the correct meaning of the homonym was chosen, was 88.9% when OMIM annotations were used as reference description.
This suggests that excellent disambiguation results can be obtained with relatively simple reference descriptions, and offers a viable way for massive acquisition of such descriptions from literature links in genetic databases, which in view of the extent of the homonym problem should be automatic for all practical purposes.
The disambiguation algorithm compares the textual context of a homonym in a document with a reference description of each of the genes that the homonym may possibly denote.

 LumenVox.com - Speech Recognition Solution White Paper
There are four methods that a speech recognition developer can use to plan for (and react to) potential ambiguities in a response from a caller to a speech-enabled IVR system.
Disambiguation is the process by which the speech recognition application decodes an uncertain utterance by a caller into a meaning that best matches the caller's spoken intent.
As a developer, it is important to use, depending on the type of speech recognition application, the right mix of these techniques that will work to bring your speech solution to success.

Disambiguation is Wiki-lingo for the process of resolving the conflict that occurs when articles about two or more different topics have the same natural title.
Disambiguation pages are not search indices -- do not add links that merely contain part of the page title where there is no significant risk of confusion.
Disambiguation pages are useful as a starting point for creative "free association".

 LetterWise: Prefix-based disambiguation for mobile text input
As alphabet size is typically at least 26 letters, three or four letters are grouped on each key, and, so, ambiguity arises.
Naturally, disambiguation is not perfect since multiple words may have the same key sequence.
We have demonstrated prefix-based disambiguation to be an efficient means for text entry on keypad-based devices such as mobile phones.

 Overview of Research Work
During the past four years, I have worked in industry, at start-ups focusing on artificial intelligence and natural language processing products.
The algorithm for disambiguation is to look at a window around each ambiguous word, and to allow all meanings of every word in that window to interact with any meanings of the target word that it has a relation to (relations are used to boost the likelihood of a particular meaning of the word).
We are currently working on ways to improve the results of our disambiguation.
