Application of Grammar Error Detection Method for English Composition Based on Machine Learning

Abstract

With the development of grammar-checking technology and algorithms, the grammar-checking system has been widely used in various fields. This paper designs and implements a grammar-checking system for English composition. The grammar-checking system adopts a multimodule design. The grammar-checking system is composed of a multilayer rule error-correcting module and a machine learning error-correcting module. This study aims to build a machine learning algorithm model that can detect English grammar errors by analysing and comparing different algorithm models currently applied in the field of education and then apply the trained model to the English composition grammar detection system. The results show that the system can save a lot of time and labor cost of manual marking, liberate teachers from heavy and repeated evaluation activities, and put more time and energy on teaching. At the same time, it can provide learners with more objective and timely feedback so that learners can intuitively and clearly know that they are prone to make grammatical mistakes in the process of English learning. It plays a certain assisting and guiding role in English learners' autonomous learning.
