• Abstract: Data sparsity is a well-known problem for grammatical error correction (GEC). Generating synthetic training data is one widely proposed solution to this problem, and has allowed models to achieve state-of-the-art (SOTA) performance in recent years. However, these methods often generate unrealistic errors, or aim to generate sentences with only one error. We propose a learning based two stage method for synthetic data generation for GEC that relaxes this constraint on sentences containing only one error. Errors are generated in accordance with sentence merit. We show that a GEC model trained on our synthetically generated corpus outperforms models trained on synthetic data from prior work.

  Over-correction is a critical problem in Chinese grammatical error correction (CGEC) task. Recent work using model ensemble methods can effectively mitigate over-correction and improve the precision of the GEC system. We propose the LM-Combiner, a rewriting model that can directly modify the over-correction of GEC system outputs without a model ensemble.

We propose *Synthesis Step by Step* (**S3**), a data synthesis framework that shrinks this distribution gap. Our approach improves the performance of a small model by reducing the gap between the synthetic dataset and the real data.

  Grammatical Error Correction (GEC) is a task of detecting and correcting grammatical errors in sentences. We propose a syntax-guided GEC model (SG-GEC) which adopts the graph attention mechanism to utilize the syntactic knowledge of dependency trees. We evaluate our model on public benchmarks of GEC task and it achieves competitive results.

Our approach is particularly effective in adapting a GEC system, trained on mixed native and non-native English, to a native English test set.
