In this paper, we present a new lineartime algorithm for lexical chaining that adopts the assumption of one sense per discourse. Our results show an improvement over previous algorithms when evaluated on a WSD task.}, url = {http://approjects.co.za/?big=en-us/research/publication/improving-word-sense-disambiguation-in-lexical-chaining/}, pages = {1486-1488}, edition = {Proceedings of 18th International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence (IJCAI)}, }
