Abstract

This paper presents a new method, based on semantic information, to resolve Definite Descriptions in unrestricted Spanish text. The method is performed in two consecutive steps. First, a lexical knowledge word domain sense disambiguation (WDSD) process is made. The text is tagged with a domain label instead of a sense label. Second, an algorithm to identify and to resolve the Spanish definite description is applied taking advantage of domain labels. In addition, this paper presents an experimental work that shows the advantage of using a WSD method in the Definite Description (DD) resolution process. Moreover, this experimental work proves that using WordNet Domain in unsupervised WSD method improves DD resolution.
