I am going to do some investigation to improve machine translation when it is applied to texts corrupted by misspellings of any sort (non-word, real-word errors).
In this preliminary phase I am collecting information about the spelling correction task and other applications and tasks which involves spelling correction.
In particular, I am interested in - surveys about the task - statistics about the most common misspellings in texts of different languages and different genres - public available software for spelling correction - available corpora of noisy texts - any further resources which is possibly useful for my topic
Thanks!
