A Programmatic Note: on two Types of Intertextuality

Reviel Netz (2005)

Revue d'histoire des mathématiques

Similarity:

The note addresses briefly some reactions to a previous article “”. In particular it looks at the question: if indeed any text must depend on previous texts, what makes the dependency of commentary and commentary-like text so special to justify my emphasis on this form of writing ? A suggestion is developed, trying to define Deuteronomic texts through their precise semiotics of intertextuality: in general, it is argued, intertextuality may be paradigmatic (= allusion) or syntagmatic...

Correcting spelling errors by modelling their causes

Sebastian Deorowicz, Marcin Ciura (2005)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

This paper accounts for a new technique of correcting isolated words in typed texts. A language-dependent set of string substitutions reflects the surface form of errors that result from vocabulary incompetence, misspellings, or mistypings. Candidate corrections are formed by applying the substitutions to text words absent from the computer lexicon. A minimal acyclic deterministic finite automaton storing the lexicon allows quick rejection of nonsense corrections, while costs associated...
