Word Sense Disambiguation Using Adaboost and j48 Combination

Nowadays, increasing in use of digital contents causes to increase in usage of machine translation systems. Unfortunately there is a big problem in front of these systems which called word sense disambiguation. This problem comes from the words with different meanings in the source language. In this paper a novel algorithm has been proposed to overcome this problem which works based on both Adaboost and j48 algorithms. To evaluate this method, we have used a standard benchmark. The result of this evaluation confirms that this method could be useful in word sense disambiguation.
