I was reading this article and thinking about things like, in the case of doing transcription, if you heard the spoken word “sign” in isolation you couldn’t be sure whether it meant road sign, spiritual sign, +/- sign, or even the sine function. This seems like a similar problem where you pretty much require context to make a good guess, otherwise the best it could do is go off of how many times the word appears in the dataset right? Is there something smarter it could do?
