Regarding that different practical programs have been developed in Persian language, it is vital now to find a solution for word-sense disambiguation in Persian language. Lack of training data is the biggest challenge in the course of word-sense disambiguation in Persian language. In order to face this problem, machine learning approach with minimal supervision is employed in this research. The applied method tries to disambiguate word senses by considering defined features of target words and applying collaborative learning method.
