Correcting Errors in Digital Lexicographic Resources Using a Dictionary Manipulation Language

We describe a paradigm for combining manual and automatic error correction of noisy structured lexicographic data. Modifications to the structure and underlying text of the lexicographic data are expressed in a simple, interpreted programming language. Dictionary Manipulation Language (DML) commands...
