Abstract

Word Sense Disambiguation has been a major challenge for various linguistic researches. Enough research has been carried in the past four decades. In machine translation, WSD plays a vital role in improving the accuracy of the translation. The automated translation of question papers from English to Hindi is one such key area which requires suitable WSD techniques to resolve ambiguity in a question word. When machine translates question sentences, it faces ambiguity problem that results in ambiguous translation. Identification of question type is important for remove ambiguity in the question paper. In this paper besides discussing WSD its approaches, resources for translation. We have also discussed question classification word sense disambiguation.
