Comparative study of models trained on synthetic data for Ukrainian grammatical error correction
Maksym Bondarenko, Artem Yushko, Andrii Shportko, Andrii Fedorych
The task of Grammatical Error Correction (GEC) has been extensively studied for the English language. However, its application to low-resource languages, such as Ukrainian, remains an open challenge. In this paper, we develop sequence tagging and neural machine translation models for the Ukrainian language as well as a set of algorithmic correction rules to augment those systems. We also develop synthetic data generation techniques for the Ukrainian language to create high-quality human-like errors. Finally, we determine the best combination of synthetically generated data to augment the existing UA-GEC corpus and achieve the state-of-the-art results of 0.663 F0. 5 score on the newly established UA-GEC benchmark. The code and trained models will be made publicly available on GitHub and HuggingFace.
