Dear list members,

we are pleased to announce the public release of version 0.1.0 of UKB,
a collection of programs for performing graph-based Word Sense
Disambiguation and lexical similarity/relatedness using a pre-existing
lknowledge base.

UKB has been developed by the IXA group <http://ixa.si.ehu.es> in the
University of the Basque Country. UKB applies the so-called
Personalized PageRank on a Lexical Knowledge Base (LKB) to rank the
vertices of the LKB and thus perform disambiguation. The details of
the method are described in [1]. The algorithm can also be used to
calculate lexical similarity/relatedness of words/sentences. See [2]
for an application of UKB on word similarity.

The software can be downloaded from:

http://ixa2.si.ehu.es/ukb

Best,
