Using Ontology-Based Context in the Portuguese-English Translation of Homographs in Textual Dialogues

Abstract

This paper introduces a novel approach to tackle the existing gap on message translations in dialogue systems. Currently, submitted messages to the dialogue systems are considered as isolated sentences. Thus, missing context information impede the disambiguation of homographs words in ambiguous sentences. Our approach solves this disambiguation problem by using concepts over existing ontologies.Comment: 17 pages, 7 figures, 2 tables in International journal of Artificial Intelligence & Applications 201
