Lexical ambiguity is a frequent phenomenon that can occur not only for words but also on the phrase level. Natural language processing systems need to efficiently deal with these ambiguities in various tasks, however, we often encounter such system failures in real applications. This thesis studies several complex phenomena related to word/phrase ambiguity at the level of text and proposes computational models to tackle these phenomena. Throughout the thesis, we address a number of lexical ambiguity phenomena varying across the sense granularity line. We start with the idiom detection task, in which candidate senses are constrained toliteral' and idiomatic'. Then, we move on to the more general case of detecting figurative expressions. In ...
