Enhancing Grammatical Error Correction Systems with Explanations
Not on the map. Why?
Abstract (arXiv)
Grammatical error correction systems improve written communication by detecting and correcting language mistakes. To help language learners better understand why the GEC system makes a certain correction, the causes of errors (evidence words) and the corresponding error types are two key factors. To enhance GEC systems with explanations, we introduce EXPECT, a large dataset annotated with evidence words and grammatical error types. We propose several baselines and analysis to understand this task. Furthermore, human evaluation verifies our explainable GEC system's explanations can assist second-language learners in determining whether to accept a correction suggestion and in understanding the associated grammar rule.
