An Automated Error Detection System for Indian Language Using Statistical Approach

Grammatical error detection system also called grammar checker or syntactic analyzer is one of the advance tool for natural language processing. This tool plays an important role in proof reading and for development of many other natural language processing applications like machine translation, summarization, question answering system etc. In this research article, we proposed a framework for detection of grammatical error using statistical approach. Further in statistical approach, we used N-gram approach for detection of the grammatical errors. Corpus used for generation of n-grams is taken from Indian Languages Corpora Initiative. This corpus is annotated by using morphological analyzer followed by part of speech tagger. Bi-gram, tri-gram and quad gram of part of speech tags are generated by using the annotated corpus. On testing the proposed algorithm on self-generated test data for Punjabi language, Overall accuracy was 100 percent, recall was 87.2, and the f-measure was 93.16,according to us.
