Description
Summary:This paper reconsiders the task of MRD-based word sense disambiguation, in extending the basic Lesk algorithm to investigate the impact on WSD performance of different tokenisation schemes, scoring mechanisms, methods of gloss extension and filtering methods. In experimentation over the Lexeed Sensebank and the Japanese Senseval-2 dictionary task, we demonstrate that character bigrams with sense-sensitive gloss extension over hyponyms and hypernyms enhances WSD performance.
