The proposal Algorithms for Linguistic Processing focuses on two crucial problem areas in computational linguistics: problems of processing efficiency and ambiguity.
There are now many computer programs for automatically determining the sense of a word in context (Word Sense Disambiguation or WSD). The purpose of Senseval is to evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of such programs with respect to different words, dif
In general, a namespace is an abstract container providing context for the items (names, or technical terms, or words) it holds and allows disambiguation of items having the same name...As a rule, names in a namespace cannot have more than one meaning, th

Lexical ambiguity is a fundamental problem in Information Retrieval (IR), especially in the medical domain. Many systems use a subset of the words contained in the document to represent the content, but they are faced with the problem of ambiguity.

FDA says drug-eluting stents are safe & effective in stable patients with single-vessel disease; even so, they'll have to take Plavix (clopidogrel) & aspirin for a year or more...up to a lifetime. High-risk patients with multivessel disease are much more
