- Title
A PROBABILISTIC MODEL FOR SPELLING CORRECTION.
- Authors
Sasu, Lucian
- Abstract
Spelling correctors are widely encountered in computer software applications and they provide the most plausible replacements for words that are presumably incorrect. The paper proposes a spelling correction method starting from the Damerau-Levenshtein edit distance and using Bayesian decision theory. The resulted algorithm is tested on a bag of words from the New York Times news articles.
