Word Sense Disambiguation (WSD) is the task of determining the specific meaning of an ambiguous word according to the context. In the realm of natural language processing, WSD is an open problem, and its development can significantly assist in human-level machine translation. In this paper, we have proposed a system for Bengali Word Sense Disambiguation through the FP-Growth algorithm. Moreover, we have also implemented the Apriori algorithm and presented an analysis on both of them to explain how the FP-Growth algorithm outperforms the Apriori algorithm performing Bengali Word Sense Disambiguation. Furthermore, In the testing phase we have found that for 80% of the test sentences, our proposed method can retrieve the exact meaning of an ambiguous word.
