  • The performance of the statistical context-sensitive spelling error correction depends on the quality and quantity of the data for statistical language model. In general, the size and quality of data in a statistical language model are proportional. However, as the amount of data increases, the processing speed becomes slower and storage space also takes up a lot. We suggest the improved statistical language model to solve this problem. And we propose an effective spelling error candidate generation method based on a new statistical language model. The proposed statistical model and the correction method based on it improve the performance of the spelling error correction and processing speed.

  • With the rapid evolution of the Internet and mobile environments, text including spelling errors such as newly-coined words and abbreviated words are widely used. These spelling errors make it difficult to develop NLP (natural language processing) applications because they decrease the readability of texts. To resolve this problem, we propose a spelling error correction model using a spelling error correction dictionary and a newspaper corpus. The proposed model has the advantage that the cost of data construction are not high because it uses a newspaper corpus, which we can easily obtain, as a training corpus. In addition, the proposed model has an advantage that additional external modules such as a morphological analyzer and a word-spacing error correction system are not required because it uses a simple string matching method based on a correction dictionary. In the experiments with a newspaper corpus and a short message corpus collected from real mobile phones, the proposed model has been shown good performances (a miss-correction rate of 7.3%, a F1-measure of 97.3%, and a false positive rate of 1.1%) in the various evaluation measures.

  • This paper focuses use context-sensitive spelling error correction using generative adversarial network. Generative adversarial network[1] are attracting attention as they solve data generation problems that have been a challenge in the field of deep learning. In this paper, sentences are generated using word embedding information and reflected in word distribution representation. We experiment with DCGAN[2] used for the stability of learning in the existing image processing and D2GAN[3] with double discriminator. In this paper, we experimented with how the composition of generative adversarial networks and the change of learning corpus influence the context-sensitive spelling error correction In the experiment, we correction the generated word embedding information and compare the performance with the actual word embedding information.

  • Context-sensitive spelling-error correction methods are largely classified into rule-based methods and statistical data-based methods, the latter of which is often preferred in research. Statistical error correction methods consider context-sensitive spelling error problems as word-sense disambiguation problems. The method divides a vocabulary pair, for correction, which consists of a correction target vocabulary and a replacement candidate vocabulary, according to the context. The present paper proposes a method that integrates a word-phrase n-gram model into a conventional model in order to improve the performance of the probability model by using a correction vocabulary pair, which was a result of a previous study performed by this research team. The integrated model suggested in this paper includes a method used to interpolate the probability of a sentence calculated through each model and a method used to apply the models, when both methods are sequentially applied. Both aforementioned types of integrated models exhibit relatively high accuracy and reproducibility when compared to conventional models or to a model that uses only an n-gram.

  • Recently, studies on Korean spelling correction have been actively conducted based on machine translation and automatic noise generation. These methods generate noise and use as train and data set. This has limitation in that it is difficult to accurately measure performance because it is unlikely that noise other than the noise used for learning is included in the test set In addition, there is no practical error type standard, so the type of error used in each study is different, making qualitative analysis difficult. This paper proposes new 'error type classification' for deep learning-based Korean spelling correction research, and error analysis perform on existing commercialized Korean spelling correctors (System A, B, C). As a result of analysis, it was found the three correction systems did not perform well in correcting other error types presented in this paper other than spacing, and hardly recognized errors in word order or tense.

  • This paper is a study on context-sensitive spelling error correction and uses the Korean WordNet (KorLex)[1] that defines the relationship between words as a graph to improve the performance of the correction[2] based on the vector information of the word embedded in the correction technique. The Korean WordNet replaced WordNet[3] developed at Princeton University in the United States and was additionally constructed for Korean. In order to learn a semantic network in graph form or to use it for learned vector information, it is necessary to transform it into a vector form by embedding learning. For transformation, we list the nodes (limited number) in a line format like a sentence in a graph in the form of a network before the training input. One of the learning techniques that use this strategy is Deepwalk[4]. DeepWalk is used to learn graphs between words in the Korean WordNet. The graph embedding information is used in concatenation with the word vector information of the learned language model for correction, and the final correction word is determined by the cosine distance value between the vectors. In this paper, In order to test whether the information of graph embedding affects the improvement of the performance of context- sensitive spelling error correction, a confused word pair was constructed and tested from the perspective of Word Sense Disambiguation(WSD). In the experimental results, the average correction performance of all confused word pairs was improved by 2.24% compared to the baseline correction performance.

  • We find a module may that takes optimal correction rate of Korean spelling corrector. If there are a lot of module numbers of spelling corrector, it is difficult to calculate optimal correction rate of spelling corrector because permutation of N-modules is N!. This Korean spelling corrector consists of 19 modules. It is impossible to arrange 19 modules actually and the correction rate is various according to input data. We found the range of correction rate using parallel processing between modules and the optimal correction rate using sequential processing of modules. Input data that are used in an experiment is 753,191 eojeol's sets that happen in newspaper publishing company during several years. About this error set, theoretical maximum correction rate of spelling corrector is $97.28\%$ (732,764/753,191). But we got the optimal correction rate $96.62\%$ (727,750/733,191). This optimal correction rate is almost near to $99.31\%$ (727,750/732,764) of the maximum correction rate.

  • The statistical context-sensitive spelling correction technique in this thesis is based upon Shannon's noisy channel model. The interpolation method is used for the improvement of the correction method proposed in the paper, and the general interpolation method is to fill the middle value of the probability by (N-1)-gram and (N-2)-gram. This method is based upon the same statistical corpus. In the proposed method, interpolation is performed using the frequency information between the statistical corpus and the correction document. The advantages of using frequency of correction documents are twofold. First, the probability of the coined word existing only in the correction document can be obtained. Second, even if there are two correction candidates with ambiguous probability values, the ambiguity is solved by correcting them by referring to the correction document. The method proposed in this thesis showed better precision and recall than the existing correction model.

  • Long time has passed since computers which used to be a means of research were commercialized and available for the general public. People used writing instruments to write before computer was commercialized. However, today a growing number of them are using computers to write instead. Computerized word processing helps write faster and reduces fatigue of hands than writing instruments, making it better fit to making long texts. However, word processing programs are more likely to cause spelling errors by the mistake of users. Spelling errors distort the shape of words, making it easy for the writer to find and correct directly, but those caused due to users' lack of knowledge or those hard to find may make it almost impossible to produce a document free of spelling errors. However, spelling errors in important documents such as theses or business proposals may lead to falling reliability. Consequently, it is necessary to conduct research on high-level spelling error correction programs for the general public. This study was designed to produce a system to correct sentence-level spelling errors to normal words with Korean alphabet similarity algorithm. On the basis of findings reported in related literatures that corrected words are significantly similar to misspelled words in form, spelling errors were extracted from a corpus. Extracted corrected words were replaced with misspelled ones to correct spelling errors with spelling error detection algorithm.

  • In this paper, we present a preprocessor which corrects word spacing errors and spelling correction errors simultaneously. The proposed expands noisy-channel model so that it corrects both errors in colloquial style sentences effectively, while preprocessing algorithms have limitations because they correct each error separately. Using Eojeol transition pattern dictionary and statistical data such as n-gram and Jaso transition probabilities, it minimizes the usage of dictionaries and produces the corrected candidates effectively. In experiments we did not get satisfactory results at current stage, we noticed that the proposed methodology has the utility by analyzing the errors. So we expect that the preprocessor will function as an effective error corrector for general colloquial style sentence by doing more improvements.
