It was found that, in general, no more than a few minutes are required for a casual user to decide on the intended meaning of an ambiguous W in its most frequent contexts, thus resulting in the immediate disambiguation of thousands of occurrences of W in the text.
The method is also very useful in information retrieval contexts, where it gives the user an efficient tool for specifying, in a query with an ambiguous word, which of the word's contexts should be retrieved, thus greatly enhancing the precision of the retrieval.
Finally, it is expected that by gradually accumulating these disambiguation decisions in the appropriate word-entry of the available automatic dictionary of the language, "local expert systems" for many ambiguous words will develop, that can greatly facilitate ambiguity resolution in practical situations.

The two readings for this unit relate here: the first illustrates the need to have many aliases for a concept, to enhance recall; the second focuses on (sense) disambiguation through the use of NLP (semantics oriented) and use of (lexical and domain) memory.
