Abstract
Word embedding, where words are represented as vectors in a continuous space, has recently attracted much attention in natural language processing tasks due to their ability to capture semantic and syntactic relations between words from a huge amount of text. In this work, we will focus on how word embedding can be used in Arabic word sense disambiguation (WSD).
