Sense Disambiguation

In order to apply WordNet to untagged corpora, techniques must be developed to perform word sense disambiguation (i.e. determine which WordNet synset corresponds to a particular word in the text). We are applying machine learning techniques to effect accurate word sense disambiguation, thereby allowing a variety of NLP techniques which leverage WordNet to be applied to a wide body of corpora.
