SUMMARY:Unsupervised Domain Tuning to Improve Word Sense Disambiguation - 
 Judita Preiss\, University of Sheffield

DESCRIPTION:The topic of a document can prove to be useful information for
  word sense disambiguation since certain meanings tend to be associated wi
 th particular topics. I will discuss three techniques which improve all ex
 isting WSD algorithms we tested by establishing a sense per (Latent Dirich
 let allocation based) topic\, and do not require any modification to the u
 nderlying algorithm to yield a performance increase. The evaluation of thr
 ee unsupervised and one supervised algorithms is carried out on the sport 
 and finance domains.\n\nJoint work with Mark Stevenson.
