Anagha Kulkarni (Joshi) - Research Interests

My research work in Natural Language Processing (NLP) is based on unsupervised approaches.
We are working towards employing unsupervised Word Sense Disambiguation(WSD) techniques to the problems like:
1. Proper Name Discrimination
2. Email Categorization
3. Synonym finding / word clustering

We use and extend SenseClusters for the above problems, which is originally developed by Dr. Ted Pedersen and Amruta Purandare.

Our Scripts which help us create data for our Experiments -
1. 'Headless' and Senseval2 formatted data creator
2. Name Conflate
