Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

In this work, an unsupervised statistical method for automatic correction of preposition errors using the Google n-gram data set is presented and compared to the state-of-the-art. We use the Google n-gram data set in a back-off fashion that increases the performance of the method. The method works automatically, does not require any human-annotated knowledge resources (e.g., ontologies) and can be applied to English language texts, including non-native (L2) ones in which preposition errors are known to be numerous. The method can be applied to other languages for which Google n-grams are available.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
