Hascheck - The Croatian Academic Spelling Checker

The Croatian Academic Spelling Checker, or Hascheck, is a telematic service embedded in E-mail. The user send his/her text to an address and waits for an automatic reply in the form of a Hascheck report. As a program, Hascheck is a learning semiautomaton. First, it evaluates un recognised strings from a text in a fuzzy manner: some of them are extremely peculiar, others are very or moderately peculiar, and the rest are almost non-peculiar, i.e.m almost certainly words. Then, less peculiar strings are processed by a tagger. Last, after a minor human intervention, a collection of words to be learned is obtained. In this paper we describe in short the string classifying algorithm and its selectivity. We also describe the tagging algorithm and its eficiency. Experience gained during four years of service operation, accomplished with two analytic functions describing the learning process, are also presented. Finally, we discuss project costs and benefits.
