| Abstract: | Most of the text categorization algorithms in the literature represent documents as collections of words. An alternative which has not been sufficiently explored is the use of word meanings, also known as senses. In this paper, using several algorithms, we compare the categorization accuracy of classifiers based on words to that of classifiers based on senses. The document collection on which this comparison takes place is a subset of the annotated Brown Corpus semantic concordance. A series of experiments indicates that the use of senses does not result in any significant categorization improvement. |
