Wikification of learning objects with metadata as an alternative context for disambiguation

Abstract

This document introduces a methodology to wikify learning objects. This proposal is focused in two processes: the word sense disambiguation process and the relevant phrases selection. The disambiguation process involves the use of the learning object metadata, as either additional context or alternative context. This consideration increases the probability of success when the learning object has a low quality context.  The relevant phrases selection process is achieved by identifying the highest values of the semantic relatedness between the main subject of the learning object and the phrases. This criterion is useful on didactical objectives.
