Disambiguation
Disambiguation is an operation that tries to resolve word
sense ambiguity cases, particularly
the ones ascribed to homographs, that is
words with the same graphic form but
different meanings.
N.B.: In T-LAB 10 some
disambiguation functions are implemented in the Text Screening tool. Moreover, during the
import stage, T-LAB recognizes and distinguishes three kinds of
linguistic objects:
- proper nouns;
- multiwords (compound words and
idioms);
- compound tenses of verbs.
In any case, T-LAB uses lists in its database which
have been built and tested to limit the most frequent cases of
ambiguity (effectiveness criterion)
and to moderate processing times (efficiency criterion).
