The proposed project aimed to develop spelling and grammar correction tools for the Estonian language. The main challenge was the scarcity of available error correction data required for model training and testing. To address this, the researchers annotated more correction data, utilized transfer-learning by retraining machine learning models from other tasks, compared their developed method with alternatives like large language models, and created automatic evaluation metrics to assess the accuracy and yield of corrections by error category.
Low GrooveSquid.com (original content) Low Difficulty Summary
The project aimed to create spelling and grammar correction tools for Estonian. The main problem was that there wasn’t much data available for training the models. To fix this, they made more data, used machine learning models from other tasks, compared their work with other methods, and created a way to measure how well each method works.
