  • Ordering a lexicon network for automatic disambiguation
    Patent number: 9286289
    Abstract: Described systems and methods allow a computer system to employ a lexicon network for word sense disambiguation (WSD). In an exemplary embodiment, each node of the lexicon network represents a gloss of a lexicon entry, while an edge represents a lexical definition relationship between two glosses. The lexicon network is ordered prior to WSD, wherein ordering the lexicon network comprises arranging the nodes of the lexicon network in an ordered sequence, and removing a set of edges to eliminate loops. In some embodiments, the position of each node within the ordered sequence is determined according to a direction and a weight of an edge connected to the respective node. The weight may represent a semantic importance of the respective edge relative to other edges of the network.
