Abstract(in English) This paper proposes an example-based method for word sense disambiguation in machine translation. This system refers to examples by a subject, direct object, indirect object, complement, and preposition in a parsed input sentence, extracting synonyms, hypernyms, and hyponyms from a thesaurus, and calculates a distance between input sentence and examples. The distance is defined based on a class of concept in the thesaurus. An optimum selection is made by use of values of the weighted linear sum of distances of each words. According to experiments, this system's success rate is more than 70%.
