| * A word sense disambiguator that determines which sense of a word is meant in |
| * a particular context. It is a classification task, where the classes are the |
| * different senses of the ambiguous word. Disambiguation can be achieved in |
| * either supervised or un-supervised approaches. For the moment this component |
| * relies on WordNet to retrieve sense definitions. It returns an array of |
| * WordNet sense IDs ordered by their disambiguation score. The sense with |
| * highest score is the most likely sense of the word. |
