Topic: WHO (disambiguation)


In the News (Tue 2 Dec 08)

  
  Wikipedia:Disambiguation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Disambiguation should not be confused with the merging of duplicate articles (articles with different titles, but regarding the very same topic, for example "Gas Turbine" and "Gas turbine", or "loo" and "restroom").
Disambiguation descriptions should not be created for subjects whose only articles are only on pages of sister projects, even if the disambiguation page already exists (e.g., the poll on 9/11 victims).
In this case the disambiguation page is named Rome (disambiguation), and the primary topic keeps the topic word or phrase.

 Wikipedia:Disambiguation - Simple English Wikipedia
There is some flexibility in creating the disambiguation page itself, or even whether it is necessary to create one at all.
As mentioned earlier, if the title clearly has one central most important meaning, and one or two lesser-known meanings in narrow contexts, it is probably better to have the full article about the primary meaning under the simple title, after brief links to the special uses.
There is rarely any need for links directly to disambiguation pages--in most cases links should point to the article that deals with the specific meaning intended, and not to a disambiguation page.

 Disambiguation for Text Mining on the Web
Our disambiguation system is based on the classical idea that disambiguation can be achieved by relying on the presence or absence of additional terms that appear in the context of a subject.
Disambiguation is done on a particular data-set, which consists of a set of source Web-pages, a set of subjects and a set of on/off topic terms for disambiguation.
The Disambiguator tags each spot as being on topic or off topic, which is then used both to feed further processing stages, and displayed to the user together with the context and the evidence that led to the decision.

 Word Sense Disambiguation   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-05)
Analysis of the example shows that this is a case where selectional restrictions fail to disambiguate ``pen'', both potential senses indicate physical objects in which things may be placed (although this is unlikely in the case of the first sense), the preposition in may apply to both.
However, the true test of word sense disambiguation technology shall be when accurate disambiguation algorithms exist, we shall then be in a position to experiment whether or not they add to their effectiveness.
The first way is to disambiguate the words by some means, as happens in the case of parallel corpora; the other approach is to add ambiguity to the corpus and have the algorithm attempt to resolve this ambiguity to return to the original corpus.

 Category:Disambiguation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Other articles should not have links which point to disambiguation pages (unless they do so "knowingly").
Links to disambiguating pages - manually maintained lists that "knowingly" point to disambiguation pages to prevent them becoming "orphans".
Note: If multiple disambiguation categories apply to the same article, use one template and manually add the rest of the categories (that fit in).

 eXtended WordNet
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.

 Word Sense Disambiguation for Information Retrieval   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-05)
Word sense disambiguation of words in the input query and words in the documents has been shown to be useful for improving both precision and recall of Information Retrieval systems.
Subsequently, verb-noun pairs are disambiguated by taking the first t possible senses of the words (as ranked by the initial algorithm) and calculating "conceptual density" of the pairs by examining the WordNet glosses of the sub-hierarchies.
The distance between senses (synsets) of words is given by the shortest path length in WordNet between the synsets, where the path length is given by the sum of the distances between the two synsets and a common hypernym.

 Donne le plus grand sommet   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-05)
Application of disambiguation to dictionary definitions (in contrast to usual texts) allows for some simplifications of the algorithm, e.g., we do not have to care of context window size.
Incorrect part of speech tagging of a word did not affect much the disambiguation results for the other words in the same definition because of our morphologically-based comparison and because usually (in 75% of cases in our experiments) there is a little difference in the definition of a noun and the corresponding adjective.
It can be seen that the sense which got the maximum score is the sense 10 because it has a morphological derivative (negotiable vs negotiation) and two words which have the word value as their synonym, namely share and document.

 Wikitravel:Disambiguation pages - Wikitravel   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-05)
If you make a disambiguation page, or see one that someone else has made, it's good to add a little notice that says that the article actually is a disambiguation page.
When a link that leads to a disambiguation page is changed to point to a new article, it means the disambiguation page can become unlinked.
If a disambiguation page is listed on that page then the Maintenance page can be used to find links that point to disambiguation pages rather than the correct article.

 Enhancing a biomedical information extraction system with dictionary mining and context disambiguation
To disambiguate the admissible possibilities, the standard approach is to rely on the context in which the entity appears to provide additional clues to the intended meaning [16].
In [14] the one-sense-per-discourse [20] hypothesis was applied to disambiguation, exploiting the fact that the sense of a term is highly consistent within a given document.
The performance of the disambiguator based on learning only is rather poor on this set compared with its performance on the earlier locally disambiguated set.

 David Yarowsky's CLiFF Abstract
I have applied this algorithm to a set of varied but fundamentally similar problems: word sense disambiguation, lexical choice in machine translation, homograph disambiguation in speech synthesis, capitalization restoration, and accent restoration in languages such as Spanish and French [8] [10] [11] [12] [14].
We applied similar techniques to the problem of authorship identification and used this approach in conjunction with the EM algorithm to label proper names in text as person or place [6].
I independently proposed and developed a class-based approach to sense disambiguation [9] using statistical models of the typical context of words in Roget's thesaurus classes such as ANIMALS or MACHINERY.

Semantic disambiguation serves thus the purpose of improving the generalization power of statistical models.
One of the questions here is how to determine a suitable level of clustering (for NE identification and for WSD) that would lead to high accuracy and to performance improvement by obtained statistical models.
The workshop is expected to attract researchers and practitioners from a range of areas as well as developers of large scale semantic resources who are interested in effective methods of semantic labeling.
