Abstract

Word sense disambiguation (WSD) is a specific task of computational linguistics which aims at automatically identifying the correct sense of a given ambiguous word from a set of predefined senses. In WSD the goal is to tag each ambiguous word in a text with one of the senses known a priori. In Arabic, the main cause of word ambiguity is the lack of diacritics of the most digital documents so the same word can occur with different senses. In this paper, we introduce the reader to the motivation for solving the ambiguity of Arabic words and we detail a description of the task. We overview supervised, unsupervised, semi-supervised and knowledge-based approaches. The evaluation of Arabic WSD systems is also discussed. Finally, we discuss open problems and future directions.

The Hadiths are religious texts assigned to the Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him) act/saying. The Hadith corpus covers more than 2.5 million words and contains more than 90,000 fragments (titles and paragraphs). It encloses the most reliable six books: Sahih Al-Bukhari (صحيح البخاري), Sahih Muslim (صحيح مسلم), Sunan Abi Dawud (سنن أبي داود), Sunan Ettermidhi (سنن الترمذي), Sunan Ibn Majah (سنن ابن ماجة) and Sunan Annasaii (سنن النسائي).

The Termhood measure weighs a candidate term according to the structural context. Given a lemma of a composite NP or a simple noun which appears in a given node (n), a query (Q) is composed of all the terms which appear in the path linking n to the root. We assign weights to these query terms according to the difference of level between the corresponding nodes (Bounhas et al. 2011a).

The Unithood measure is used to assess NPs by calculating the degree of dependency among their constituents. This measure considers that the two constituents are linked if each of them is relevant for the other (Bounhas et al. 2011a).

The semantic tree T = (N, E, R, RC, LC, L) corresponding to a given sentence is defined as the following: N is the set of nodes, where every node corresponds to a concept; E is a set of edges that represents the relation between nodes; R is the root of the tree which is the ambiguous word; RC (resp. LC) is the set of right (resp. left) children which are the words occurring on the right (resp. left) of the ambiguous word; and L is a function assigning the level of the nodes, it corresponds to their positions regarding the ambiguous word (Merhbene et al. 2013a).

This corpus was produced within the project NEMLAR. The NEMLAR corpus consists of 500.000 lexical units grouped into 13 different categories, aimed at obtaining a balanced corpus that offers a representation of the variety of syntactic features, semantic and pragmatic of modern Arabic language.
