Abstract

This paper presents a method for discovering homographs from textual corpora. The proposed method first extracts an N-partite graph expression of word dependencies, and then, generates near-synonymous word clusters by enumerating and combining maximum complete sub-components on the graph. The homographs are identified as the words that belong to multiple clusters. In our experiment, we applied the method to Japanese newspaper articles and detected 531 homograph candidates, of which 31 were confirmed to be actual homographs.
