 SenseLearner
Word Sense Disambiguation (WSD) is a core task in natural language processing, and is considered essential for major applications like text understanding, common sense reasoning, and machine translation.
The research done so far in WSD has produced good disambiguation schemes for the relatively few words for which training data have been available.
The goal of the SenseLearner project is to conduct exploratory research of various WSD techniques to enable the development of a tool for semantic tagging of all words in unrestricted text.
