Effect of Language and Error Models on Efficiency of Finite-State Spell-Checking and Correction
We inspect the viability of finite-state spellchecking and contextless correction of nonword errors in three languages with a large degree of morphological variety. Overviewing previous work, we conduct large-scale tests involving three languages — English, Finnish and Greenlandic — and a variety of...

We inspect the viability of finite-state spellchecking and contextless correction of nonword errors in three languages with a large degree of morphological variety. Overviewing previous work, we conduct large-scale tests involving three languages — English, Finnish and Greenlandic — and a variety of error models and algorithms, including proposed improvements of our own.
