Abstract

This paper describes the architecture and results of the TALP system presented at the SENSEVAL-2 exercise for the English lexical--sample task. This system is based on the LazyBoosting algorithm for Word Sense Disambiguation (Escudero et al., 2000), and incorporates some improvements and adaptations to this task. The evaluation reported here includes an analysis of the contribution of each component to the overall system performance.
