This paper presents an innovative approach to refining large-scale language models (LLMs) for grammatical error correction (GEC). Building on the concept of curriculum learning, the authors propose LLM-based curriculum learning, which leverages the strengths of LLMs in semantic comprehension and discriminative power. The method involves selecting varying levels of curriculums from easy to hard, iteratively training and refining pre-trained T5 and LLaMA series models using this approach. The paper demonstrates a significant performance boost over baseline models and conventional curriculum learning methodologies through rigorous testing across diverse benchmark assessments in English GEC, including the CoNLL14 test, BEA19 test, and BEA19 development sets.

This research helps large language models get better at correcting grammar mistakes. The team developed a new way to teach these models by creating a series of learning exercises that get progressively harder. They used this approach with two types of pre-trained models and tested them on many different English grammar correction tasks. The results show that their method can improve performance significantly, making it a useful tool for improving language understanding.
