	Number - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A new number was invented, the square root of negative one, denoted by i, a symbol assigned to this new number by Leonhard Euler.
		The arithmetical operations of numbers, such as addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, are generalized in the branch of mathematics called abstract algebra, the study of abstract number systems such as groups, rings and fields.
		The existence of complex numbers was not completely accepted until the geometrical interpretation had been described by Caspar Wessel in 1799; it was rediscovered several years later and popularized by Carl Friedrich Gauss, and as a result the theory of complex numbers received a notable expansion.

		Zero (0) is a number that precedes the positive one, and all positive numbers, and follows negative one, and all negative numbers.
		The use of zero as a number unto itself was a relatively late addition to mathematics, thought to be introduced by Indian mathematicians.
		Zero may or may not be counted as a natural number, depending on the definition of natural numbers.

		In this assignment we attempt to disambiguate various meanings of the word line by using sense tagged line in which six different senses of the word line have been identified and the data is divided into seperate files for each sense.

		The glosses are represented by the tag that inlcludes the synonym set, the text of the gloss, the parse tree, the logic form tranformation and the semantic disambiguation of the gloss.
		The semantic disambiguation part is marked by the tag and includes words represented by the tag and punctuation represented by the tag.
		The second phase is the effective disambiguation that consists of assigning to each open class word the correct sense using its part of speech.

		More precisely, this is not exactly the number of occurrences; instead, as it is explained below, this is the accumulated probability to be true of all variants of the syntactic structure in which this combination occurs (for unambiguous phrases, this is the number of occurrences).
		This is roughly the number of occurrences of the given combination in the incorrect variants of the structure built by a specific parser; more precisely, this is the accumulated probability to be false by all variants in which this combination occurs.
		By disambiguation, we mean assigning to the variants the weights according to the probability for the given variant to represent the correct structure of the phrase.

		For spelling-based systems in English, the number of symbols is at least twenty-seven (when a space is included), and more when the system includes options to select from a number of lexical predictions.
		The system is based on a process known as "word-level disambiguation," where the system compares a sequence of keystrokes to words in a large database to determine the intended word.
		In the case of a system based on word-level disambiguation used by an individual with adequate literacy skills, the association between any desired word and the selection sequence required to generate it is based simply on the spelling of the word.

		It would seem reasonable that the synset intersection maximizes the number of significant synsets for the two texts, and at the same time tends to exclude synsets whose meaning is not pertinent to the content of the text.
		As far as disambiguation is concerned it seems a reasonable hypothesis that the synset intersection could bring constraints on the sense selection for a word (i.e.

		In disambiguating the noun interest, the possible values of the verb-object feature are the verbs (such as sold) that stand in a verb-object syntactic relation with interest.
		In general, the disambiguation accuracy depends on the particular words tested, the number of senses to a word, and the test corpus from which the words originate.
		Verbs are typically harder to disambiguate than nouns, and disambiguation accuracy for words chosen from a test corpus composed of a wide variety of genres and domains, such as the Brown corpus, is lower than the accuracy of words chosen from, say, business articles from the Wall Street Journal (Ng and Lee 1996).

	Synonymy and Contextual Disambiguation of Words
		The number of paragraph references made by a term reflects the number of abstract concepts for which that term can be a possible expression.
		Each number corresponds to a paragraph of the thesaurus in which the term on the left appears; it will be observed that a given term may be found in several paragraphs, and that a given paragraph may appear against several terms.
		These measures depend on the number of occurrences, the degree of suffix/prefix manipulation used in deriving the term for each occurrence, and whether the occurrence is a phrase containing a derivation or the derivation by itself.

		A Method for Word Sense Disambiguation of Unrestricted Text Rada Mihalcea and Dan I. Moldovan Department of Computer Science and Engineering Southern Methodist University Dallas, Texas, 75275-0122 frada,moldovang@seas.smu.edu Abstract Selecting the most appropriate sense for an ambiguous word in a sentence is a central problem in Natural Language Processing.
		For example, when disambiguating the pair protect court our method picked the court meaning "a room in which a law court sits" which seems reasonable given only two words, whereas SemCor gives the court meaning "an assembly to conduct judicial business" which results from the sentence context (this was our second choice).
		A method that disambiguates unrestricted nouns, verbs, adverbs and adjectives in texts is presented in (Stetina et al., 1998); it attempts to exploit sentential and discourse contexts and is based on the idea of semantic distance between words, and lexical relations.

		Rational numbers having a finite decimal are called decimal fractions or decimal numbers, sometimes denoted by '''D'''.
		While (most) real numbers have infinitely long expansions to the right of the decimal point, one can also try to allow for infinitely long expansions to the left in base p, where p is a prime number, leading to the s.
		The arithmetical operations of numbers, such as addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, are generalized in the branch of mathematics called abstract algebra; one obtains the group s, ring s and field s.

		For conciseness, ambiguous context-free grammars are frequently used to define even completely unambiguous languages and numerous disambiguation methods exist for specifying which interpretation is the intended one for each sentence.
		A filter is a function that selects from a set of parse trees (the canonical representation of the interpretations of a sentence) the intended trees.
		A disambiguation filter is a function that selects a subset from a set of parse trees---the possible parse trees for an ambiguous sentence.

		It can also be noted from Table 1 that syntactic information contributed to about 38% of word sense disambiguation (18 of 48, on an average, were disambiguated by syntax).
		These numbers are almost the same as the numbers for training texts shown earlier in Table 1.
		Furthermore, a 97% success rate in disambiguating open-class words can be taken as strong proof of the reliability of the Hunter-Gatherer system.

	Unsupervised Name Disambiguation via Social Network Similarity (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-01)
		In this paper, we concentrate on ambiguity and investigate unsupervised methods which simultaneously learn 1) the number of entities represented by a particular name and 2) which observations correspond to the same entity.
		The disambiguation methods leverage the fact that an entity’s name can be listed in multiple sources, each with a number of related entity’s names, which permits the construction of name-based relational networks.
		In contrast, the second method employs a less strict similarity requirement by using random walks between ambiguous observations on a global social network constructed from all sources, or a community similarity.
