Spellchecking for Children in Web Search: a Natural Language Interface Case-study

2021-04-01 · EACL (HCINLP) 2021 4 · Casey Kennington, Jerry Alan Fails, Katherine Landau Wright, Maria Soledad Pera

Given the more widespread nature of natural language interfaces, it is increasingly important to understand who are accessing those interfaces, and how those interfaces are being used. In this paper, we explore spellchecking in the context of web search with children as the target audience. In particular, via a literature review we show that, while widely used, popular search tools are ill-designed for children. We then use spellcheckers as a case study to highlight the need for an interdisciplinary approach that brings together natural language processing, education, human-computer interaction to address a known information retrieval problem: query misspelling. We conclude that it is imperative that those for whom the interfaces are designed have a voice in the design process.

LeSpell - A Multi-Lingual Benchmark Corpus of Spelling Errors to Develop Spellchecking Methods for Learner Language

2022-06-01 · LREC 2022 6 · Marie Bexte, Ronja Laarmann-Quante, Andrea Horbach, Torsten Zesch

Spellchecking text written by language learners is especially challenging because errors made by learners differ both quantitatively and qualitatively from errors made by already proficient learners. We introduce LeSpell…
