BirdiD / Spelling-corrector-Pulaar

In this notebook, we will implement an auto-correct system using pulaar language. Pulaar is spoken by million people across about 20 countries in West and Central Africa. This notebook is inspired by Peter Norvig who first created auto-correct in 2007 and Deeplearning.ai NLP specialization I took last year. Below the original article of Peter Norvig.

Superb ! Could you please add an example ? How could this be used to improve speech2text transcription ?

Hello @flutter-painter. Thanks for your message. Will add an example asap.

Yep, I definitely think that spelling corrector is something that could be used to improve speech2text transcription. The spellchecking system in this repo is a basic one that uses minimum edit distance between words to correct them and does not actually take into account the context of the word in the sentence. But this is a good start. We can for instance for a given language build a vocabulary of words and use minimum edit distance to detect misspelled words and correct them
