Word-sense disambiguation (WSD) is a natural language processing (NLP) task that aims to determine which meaning of a word is used in a given context. Many words in the English language (and other languages) have multiple meanings, known as "senses." For instance, the word "bank" can refer to a financial institution or the side of a river, among other meanings.
