About pywsd

alvations/pywsd

Python Implementations of Word Sense Disambiguation (WSD) Technologies.

Implements multiple WSD algorithms including Lesk variants (original, adapted, simple, and cosine-based) alongside similarity-based approaches using WordNet path metrics and information content measures. Integrates tightly with NLTK and WordNet, providing pre-computed synset signatures for efficient overlap calculations and supporting both targeted single-word and full sentence disambiguation tasks.

About wsd

linalgo/wsd

Fast, efficient open source & open data Word Sense Disambiguation models for practial use.
