    This paper presents a new model of WordNet that is used to disambiguate the correct sense of polysemy word based on the clue words. The related words for each sense of a polysemy word as well as single sense word are referred to as the clue words. The conventional WordNet organizes nouns, verbs, adjectives and adverbs together into sets of synonyms called synsets each expressing a different concept. In contrast to the structure of WordNet, we developed a new model of WordNet that organizes the different senses of polysemy words as well as the single sense words based on the clue words. These clue words for each sense of a polysemy word as well as for single sense word are used to disambiguate the correct meaning of the polysemy word in the given context using knowledge based Word Sense Disambiguation (WSD) algorithms. The clue word can be a noun, verb, adjective or adverb

    The insulin-like growth factor 2 gene in mammals: Organizational complexity within a conserved locus.

    The secreted protein, insulin-like growth factor 2 (IGF2), plays a central role in fetal and prenatal growth and development, and is regulated at the genetic level by parental imprinting, being expressed predominantly from the paternally derived chromosome in mice and humans. Here, IGF2/Igf2 and its locus has been examined in 19 mammals from 13 orders spanning ~166 million years of evolutionary development. By using human or mouse DNA segments as queries in genome analyses, and by assessing gene expression using RNA-sequencing libraries, more complexity was identified within IGF2/Igf2 than was annotated previously. Multiple potential 5' non-coding exons were mapped in most mammals and are presumably linked to distinct IGF2/Igf2 promoters, as shown for several species by interrogating RNA-sequencing libraries. DNA similarity was highest in IGF2/Igf2 coding exons; yet, even though the mature IGF2 protein was conserved, versions of 67 or 70 residues are produced secondary to species-specific maintenance of alternative RNA splicing at a variable intron-exon junction. Adjacent H19 was more divergent than IGF2/Igf2, as expected in a gene for a noncoding RNA, and was identified in only 10/19 species. These results show that common features, including those defining IGF2/Igf2 coding and several non-coding exons, were likely present at the onset of the mammalian radiation, but that others, such as a putative imprinting control region 5' to H19 and potential enhancer elements 3' to H19, diversified with speciation. This study also demonstrates that careful analysis of genomic and gene expression repositories can provide new insights into gene structure and regulation
