| Description | In this paper, we report recent improvements to the exemplar-based learning approach for word sense disambiguation that have achieved higher disambiguation accuracy. By using a larger value of k, the number of nearest neighbors to use for determining the class of a test example, and through 10-fold cross validation to automatically determine the best k, we have obtained improved disambiguation accuracy on a large sense-tagged corpus first used in (Ng and Lee, 1996). The accuracy achieved by our improved exemplar-based classifier is comparable to the accuracy on the same data set obtained by the Naive-Bayes algorithm, which was reported in (Mooney, 1996) to have the highest disambiguation accuracy among seven state-of-the-art machine learning algorithms. 1 |
