  • A Word Sense Disambiguation (WSD) system was developed for the fully automatic indicative English to Hindi Machine Translation System MaTra in the KBCS division. The existing mapping between English and Hindi words relied on common usage patterns, intuition, and experience, necessitating the need for a more systematic approach. The project involved exploring the field of WSD and implementing a system using supervised and semi-supervised learning techniques in machine learning. To analyze the context of target words, input sentences were converted from XML to ARFF format, using XSLT and XQuery. The transformed data was then utilized for machine learning through WEKA. The aim was to replace the existing system, which relied on common usage patterns, intuition, and experience, with a more reliable machine learning system. The tools and technologies employed in this project included Java, machine learning techniques, XML, WEKA, POS Tagger, JAWS, and WordNet.
