WORD-TAG-BASED LANGUAGE SYSTEM FOR SENTENCE ACCEPTABILITY JUDGMENT - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240119239 titled 'WORD-TAG-BASED LANGUAGE SYSTEM FOR SENTENCE ACCEPTABILITY JUDGMENT

Simplified Explanation

Methods and systems for sentence acceptability judgment involve obtaining a word frequency distribution for a predetermined textual data set. A replacement rate is determined based on this distribution, and words with a frequency lower than the replacement rate are replaced with corresponding tags in the training data set. Language models are then trained with the revised text, and the best performing model is selected to rate the acceptability of candidate sentences.

  • Word frequency distribution obtained for a textual data set
  • Replacement rate determined based on word frequency distribution
  • Words with frequency lower than replacement rate replaced with tags in training data set
  • Language models trained with revised text
  • Best performing model selected to rate acceptability of sentences

Potential Applications

This technology could be applied in:

  • Automated essay grading systems
  • Natural language processing tools for improving sentence structure

Problems Solved

This technology helps in:

  • Enhancing the accuracy of language models
  • Improving the quality of automated text evaluation systems

Benefits

The benefits of this technology include:

  • Streamlining the process of sentence acceptability judgment
  • Enhancing the performance of language models

Potential Commercial Applications

Potential commercial applications of this technology include:

  • Educational technology companies
  • Text analysis software developers

Possible Prior Art

One possible prior art for this technology could be:

  • Existing language modeling techniques used in natural language processing systems

Unanswered Questions

How does this technology compare to existing automated essay grading systems?

This technology focuses on sentence acceptability judgment, which is a specific aspect of essay grading. It may offer more precise evaluation of individual sentences, but its overall impact on essay grading systems is unclear.

What are the limitations of using word frequency distribution for sentence acceptability judgment?

While word frequency distribution can provide valuable insights, it may not capture the nuances of language usage and context. The technology's effectiveness in handling complex sentence structures and diverse writing styles remains to be seen.


Original Abstract Submitted

methods and systems for sentence acceptability judgment. a word frequency distribution for a predetermined textual data set is obtained. a replacement rate is determined based on an obtained word frequency distribution for a predetermined textual data set and every occurrence of a word having a frequency lower than the replacement rate is replaced in text of a training data set with a corresponding tag to generate revised text of the training data set (the training data set comprising at least a portion of the predetermined textual data set). a plurality of language models are trained with the revised text and a best performing trained language model of the plurality of trained language models is selected. an acceptability of each sentence of a plurality of candidate sentences is rated using the selected trained language model and a best sentence of the plurality of candidate sentences is selected based on the ratings.
