Abstract

This article describes the implementation of Word Sense Disambiguation system that participated in the SemEval-2007 multilingual Chinese-English lexical sample task. We adopted a supervised learning approach with Maximum Entropy classifier. The features used were neighboring words and their part-of-speech, as well as single words in the context, and other syntactic features based on shallow parsing. In addition, we used word category information of a Chinese thesaurus as features for verb disambiguation. For the task we participated in, we obtained precision of 0.716 in micro-average, which is the best among all participated systems.
