To Err is human? How typographical and orthographical errors affect perceptions of online reviewers

Typographical and Orthographical Spelling Error Correction

This paper focuses on selection techniques for best correction of misspelt words at the lexical level. Spelling errors are introduced by either cognitive or typographical mistakes. A robust spelling correction algorithm is needed to cover both cognitive and typographical errors. For the most effective spelling correction system, various strategies are considered in this paper: ranking heuristic...

Triphone Analysis: A Combined Method For The Correction Of Orthographical And Typographical Errors

Most existing systems for the correction of word level errors are oriented toward either typographical or orthographical errors. Triphone analysis is a new correction strategy which combines phonemic transcription with trigram analysis. It corrects both kinds of errors (also in combination) and is superior for orthographical errors.

We argue for the importance of human error as a significant and oft-overlooked factor in system dependability, and contend that human behavior must be considered in both dependability benchmarks and high-dependability system designs. We support our claims with data illustrating that human-induced failures consistently account for half of all outages, and show that human error accompanies even t...

Natural language contains disfluencies and errors. Do listeners simply discard information that was clearly produced in error, or can erroneous material persist to affect subsequent processing? Two experiments explored this question using a structural priming paradigm. Speakers described dative-eliciting pictures after hearing prime sentences that either were disfluent but with a consistent dat...
