1. An Empirical Evaluation of Knowledge Sources and Learning Algorithms for Word Sense Disambiguation (2002 · 302 citations)
   The paper investigates how supervised word sense disambiguation (WSD) accuracy depends on two factors: the features used to describe a word's context and the classifier trained on them.
2. Unsupervised Morphology Rivals Supervised Morphology for Arabic MT (2012 · 30 citations)
   The question is whether an unsupervised Arabic segmenter (the Lee et al. Bayesian model) can match supervised segmenters such as MADA and Sakhr when it feeds a hierarchical string-to-tree MT system. The authors add maximum marginal decoding (MM) over 25 Gibbs-sampling runs. Sampling alone changes 13% of token…
