Automatically generated spelling correction corpus for Czech (Czesl-SEC-AG) is a corpus containg text with automatically generated spelling errors. To create spelling errors, a character error model containing probabilities of character substitution, insertion, deletion and probabilities of swaping two adjacent characters is used. Besides these probabilities, also the probabilities of changing character casing are considered. The original clean text on which the spelling errors were generated is PDT3.0 (http://hdl.handle.net/11858/00-097C-0000-0023-1AAF-3). The original train/dev/test sentence split of PDT3.0 corpus is preserved in this dataset.
Besides the data with artificial spelling errors, we also publish texts from which the character error model was created. These are the original manual transcript of an audiobook Švejk and its corrected version performed by authors of Korektor (http://ufal.mff.cuni.cz/korektor). These data are similarly to CzeSL Grammatical Error Correction Dataset (CzeSL-GEC: http://hdl.handle.net/11234/1-2143) processed into four sets based on error difficulty present.
Corpus of texts in 12 languages. For each language, we provide one training, one development and one testing set acquired from Wikipedia articles. Moreover, each language dataset contains (substantially larger) training set collected from (general) Web texts. All sets, except for Wikipedia and Web training sets that can contain similar sentences, are disjoint. Data are segmented into sentences which are further word tokenized.
All data in the corpus contain diacritics. To strip diacritics from them, use Python script diacritization_stripping.py contained within attached stripping_diacritics.zip. This script has two modes. We generally recommend using method called uninames, which for some languages behaves better.
The code for training recurrent neural-network based model for diacritics restoration is located at https://github.com/arahusky/diacritics_restoration.
