Anyone know of some good Word Sense Disambiguation software? [closed]

My list are not exhaustive but surely Googling for more will be better for your purposes.

For softwares here's a short list, remember to CITE the relevant sources!!!

GWSD: Unsupervised Graph-based Word Sense Disambiguation http://lit.csci.unt.edu/~rada/downloads/GWSD/GWSD.1.0.tar.gz

SenseLearner: All-Words Word Sense Disambiguation Tool http://lit.csci.unt.edu/~rada/downloads/senselearner/SenseLearner2.0.tar.gz

KYOTO UKB graph-based WSD http://ixa2.si.ehu.es/ukb/

pyWSD: Python Implementation of Simple WSD algorithms https://github.com/alvations/pywsd


WSD tasks are sort of also dependent of the data source so here's a few, remember to CITE them too!!!

Open Mind Word Expert Sense Tagged Data http://teach-computers.org/word-expert.html

TWA Sense Tagged Data http://lit.csci.unt.edu/~rada/downloads/TWA/TWA.tar.gz

SemCor http://lit.csci.unt.edu/~rada/downloads/semcor/semcor1.6.tar.gz


Lastly, WSD tasks are dependent on some preprocessing and if you're looking into state-of-the-art crosslingual WSD, then you should try to look out for word level aligners like

  • MOSES
  • MGIZA++
  • GIZA++
  • BerkeleyAligner

Also, look at previous Senseval/SemEval pages to look for what has already been done, and what are the trends that future tasks are moving towards. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SemEval
