Challenge: Existing studies present tokens, examples, and hints for corrections, but do not directly explain the reasons in natural language.
Approach: They propose a method called controlled generation with Prompt Insertion that uses Large Language Models to explain the reasons for corrections in natural language.
Outcome: The proposed method can explain the reasons for corrections in natural language by guiding the LLMs to generate explanations for all correction points.

GEE! Grammar Error Explanation with Large Language Models (2024.findings-naacl)

Copied to clipboard

Challenge: Existing grammatical error correction tools do not provide natural language explanations of errors . a system needs to provide one-sentence explanations for each grammamatical errors in a pair of erroneous and corrected sentences.
Approach: They propose a grammar error explanation task that uses one-sentence explanations for each grammatical error in a pair of erroneous and corrected sentences.
Outcome: The proposed pipeline identifies grammar errors in German, Chinese, and English . human evaluation reveals that 93.9% of German errors, 96.4% of Chinese errors, and 92.20% of English errors are correctly detected and explained.
