Phil Dawes' Stuff: How to disambiguate tag senses!

Bozo Faust · 4 years ago

I think the only way to "disambiguate" a string is to do it in some context. Keep the context, and you keep the identity. After you loose the context, to try to recover it by logical means is, imho, going to be a loosing proposition. This is why quads (context,subject,verb,object see the url in website of this comment) is a far better structure than just triples.
