NAME WordNet-SenseRelate-WordToSet version 0.02 OVERVIEW This module performs word sense disambiguation (WSD), which is the process of selecting the correct sense for a word in a given sense. The correct sense is selected from a sense inventory that lists the possible meanings of a word. This module uses the WordNet lexical database as its sense inventory. SYNOPSIS use WordNet::SenseRelate::WordToSet; use WordNet::QueryData; my $qd = WordNet::QueryData->new; my %options = (wordnet => $qd, measure => 'WordNet::Similarity::lesk'); my $wsd = WordNet::SenseRelate::WordToSet->new (%options); my $result = $wsd->disambiguate (target => 'java', context => ['programming_language', 'applet']); foreach my $key (keys %$result) { print $key, ' : ', $result->{$key}, "\n"; } CONTENTS When the distribution is unpacked, several subdirectories are created: /lib This directory contains the Perl modules that do the actual work of disambiguation. By default, these files are isntalled into /usr/local/lib/site_perl/PERL_VERSION (where PERL_VERSION is the version of Perl you are using), or a similar directory. See the INSTALL file for more details. /utils This directory contains a script, wordtoset.pl, that lets you run the WSD software without writing your own Perl script. /t This directory contains test scripts. These scripts are run when you run 'make test'.
