Andries Beyers (politician)
Andries Stephanus Beyers (born 1945 or 1946) is a South African politician who served in Parliament from 1992 to 1999. He was the national secretary of the far-right Conservative Party from 1987 to 1992 but he later represented the National Party. Beyers was a member of the National Party until 1981, when he resigned in protest of what he viewed as the party's soft stance on apartheid. He was a founding member of the Conservative Party the following year. In February 1992, he was elected to represent the Potchefstroom constituency, formerly a National Party stronghold, in the House of Assembly; the Conservatives' victory in the by-election contributed to President F. W. de Klerk's decision to hold a referendum on apartheid the following month. Soon after the by-election and referendum, Beyers left the Conservatives to found the Afrikaner Volksunie, a short-lived Afrikaner separatist movement which participated in the negotiations to end apartheid in 1993.

Disambiguation Pages
Word-sense disambiguation (WSD) is the process of identifying which sense of a word is meant in a sentence or other segment of context. In human language processing and cognition, it is usually subconscious/automatic but can often come to conscious attention when ambiguity impairs clarity of communication, given the pervasive polysemy in natural language. In computational linguistics, it is an open problem that affects other computer-related writing, such as discourse, improving relevance of search engines, anaphora resolution, coherence, and inference. Given that natural language requires reflection of neurological reality, as shaped by the abilities provided by the brain's neural networks, computer science has had a long-term challenge in developing the ability in computers to do natural language processing and machine learning. Many techniques have been researched, including dictionary-based methods that use the knowledge encoded in lexical resources, supervised machine lear ...
