Abstract(in English) As an new method for word sense disambiguation in machine translation, , we have proposed a method using decision tree learning algorithm. In this method, a decision tree is produced by training database. It consists of a set of sense of a multi-meaning word and information of words around the multi-meaning word. Input words are classified using the tree, and an optimum selection of sense of the multi-meaning word is determined by the result of classification. In our method, it is not necessary to consider some errors of parsing tool, because information of case is not used. However, information of case is usually used for the example-based method for word sense disambiguation. In this paper, we evaluate optimum set of the attributes in our method, and compare our method and the method without decision tree learning algorithm.
