Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Existing similarity-based systems focus on learning sense embeddings using only the sentence where the word appears, neglecting its global context.
Approach: They propose a contextoriented embedding technique that takes better advantage of both word-level and sense-level global context of an ambiguous word for disambiguation.
Outcome: The proposed method improves on all-words WSD benchmarks in knowledge-based category by large margins.
