Abstract

In this paper an approach based on Wikipedia link structure for sense disambiguation is presented and evaluated. Wikipedia is used as a reference to obtain lexicographic relationships and in combination with statistical information extraction it is possible to deduce concepts related to the terms extracted from a corpus. In addition, since the corpus covers a representation of a part of the real world the corpus itself is used as ”training data” for choosing the sense which best fit the corpus.
