Automatic spelling correction in scientific and scholarly text
Joseph J. Pollock,Antonio Zamora +1 more
TL;DR: The SPEEDCOP program as discussed by the authors was developed as part of the Spelling Error Detection Project (Spelling Error. Detection/ ©1984ACM0001-0782/84/0400-0358 75¢ Correction Project).
Journal ArticleDOI
The use of trigram analysis for spelling error detection
TL;DR: The trigram analysis technique developed determined the error site within a misspelling accurately, but did not distinguish effectively between different error types or between valid words and misspellings.

Collection and characterization of spelling errors in scientific and scholarly text
Joseph J. Pollock,Antonio Zamora +1 more
TL;DR: The SPEEDCOP (SPEIIing Error Detection correction Project) project recently completed at Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS) extracted over 50,000 misspellings from approximately 25,000,000 words of text from seven scientific and scholarly databases and showed that the expected incidence of misspelling is 0.2%, that 90–95% of spelling errors have only a single mistake, and that substitution is homogeneous while transposition is heterogeneous.
Journal ArticleDOI
Spelling error detection and correction by computer: some notes and a bibliography
TL;DR: Both the power of small computers and the routine production of machine‐readable text have increased enormously over the last decade to the point where automatic spelling error detection/correction has become not only feasible but highly desirable.
