TopSome of the early researches in WSD and its integration with IR can be found in the works of Krovetz and Croft (1992), Sanderson (1994), Sanderson (2000), Gonzalo, Peñas, and Verdejo (1999). These contributers justified the significance of WSD in the area of IR. They just broke the myth of the earlier researchers like Zernik (1991), Voorhees (1993), Wallis (1993), Sussna (1997), who concluded their work by illustrating that there is no significance of WSD on the improvement of performance of IR systems.
The majority of work done in Hindi language is restricted to the Machine Translation. Key researchers like Bhattacharyya (Bhattacharyya, Sinha, Kumar, Pande & Kashyap, 2004) who proposed the statistical approach which was very near to Lesk (1986) approach. Another unsupervised approach was given by Neetu Mishra (Mishra, Yadav & Siddiqui, 2009) for Hindi language WSD. In another work, Klapaftis and Manandhar (Klapaftis & Manandhar, 2005) used the Total Sense Score (TSS) for the disambiguation.
Besides that, some other researchers also have used web documents for the disambiguation approach (Gaona, Gelbukh & Bandyopadhyay, 2009; Katsiouli & Kalamboukis, 2009).
