Speech recognition errors are inevitable in a speech dialog system. This paper presents an error handling method based on correction grammars which recognize the correction utterances which follow a recognition error. Correction grammars are dynamically created from existing grammars and a set of correction templates. We also describe a prototype dialog system which incorporates this error hand...

This study aimed at investigating the effects of grammatical error correction on EFL learners’ accuracy. Twenty-two male and female senior students were chosen randomly to respond to a questionnaire investigating their beliefs about immediate grammatical error correction.  Actually, the study was conducted in order to answer this question: what is the effect of grammatical error feedback on stu...

In order to calculate the error probability of a code it is necessary to know the distribution of the coset leaders. The enumeration of cosets of the first order Reed Muller code has been studied (i) by Berlekamp and Welch (1972) by associating with each coset a class of Boolean functions, and (ii) by Sloane and Dick (1971) by associating with each coset a class of single-error-correcting codes...

MOTIVATION Second-generation sequencing technologies produce a massive amount of short reads in a single experiment. However, sequencing errors can cause major problems when using this approach for de novo sequencing applications. Moreover, existing error correction methods have been designed and optimized for shotgun sequencing. Therefore, there is an urgent need for the design of fast and acc...

As we stride toward the exascale era, due to increasing complexity of supercomputers, hard and soft errors are causing more and more problems in high-performance scientific and engineering computation. In order to improve reliability (increase the mean time to failure) of computing systems, a lot of efforts have been devoted to developing techniques to forecast, prevent, and recover from errors...

Due to the lack of parallel data in current grammatical error correction (GEC) task, models based on sequence framework cannot be adequately trained obtain higher performance. We propose two synthesis methods which can control rate and ratio types synthetic data. The first approach is corrupt each word monolingual corpus with a fixed probability, including replacement, insertion deletion. Anoth...
