ANYKS Smart language model

ANYKS Spell-checker (ASC) C++11

Project description

There are a lot of typo and text error correction systems out there. Each one of those systems has its pros and cons, and each system has the right to live and will find its own user base. I would like to present my own version of the typo correction system with its own unique features.

List of features

  • Correction of mistakes in words with a Levenshtein distance of up to 4;
  • Correction of different types of typos in words: insertion, deletion, substitution, rearrangement of character;
  • Ё-fication of a word given the context (letter 'ё' is commonly replaced by letter 'е' in russian typed text);
  • Context-based word capitalization for proper names and titles;
  • Context-based splitting for words that are missing the separating space character;
  • Text analysis without correcting the original text;
  • Searching the text for errors, typos, incorrect context.

Testing

To test the system, we used data from the 2016 "spelling correction" competition organized by Dialog21.
The trained binary dictionary that was used for testing: wittenbell-3-middle.asc

Mode Precision Recall FMeasure
Typo correction 76.97 62.71 69.11
Error correction 73.72 60.53 66.48

I think it is unnecessary to add any other data. Anyone can repeat the test if they wish (all files used for testing are attached below).

Description:

  • ad - The total number of documents in the training corpus;
  • cw - The total number of words in the training corpus;
  • oc - Occurance in the corpus;
  • dc - Occurance in documents;
  • tf - (term frequency) — the ratio of the number of occurrences of a certain word to the total number of words in the document. Thus, the importance of a word within a separate document is estimated, calculated as: [tf = oc / cw];
  • idf - (inverse document frequency) — the inversion of the frequency with which a word occurs in the collection of documents, calculated as: [idf = log(ad / dc)]
  • tf-idf - calculated as: [tf-idf = tf * idf]
  • wltf - Word rating, calculated as: [wltf = 1 + log(tf * dc)]

  • All arguments can be passed via environment variables. Variables start with the ** ASC _ ** prefix and must be written in uppercase, other than that, all the variable names correspond to their application arguments.
  • If both application parameters and environment variables were passed, application parameters will have priority.
