Challenge: Existing Grammatical Error Correction (GEC) methods overlook the assessment of sentence-level syntax and semantics in the corrected sentence.
Approach: They propose a correction acceptance discrimination task to assess sentence-level syntax and semantics in corrected sentences and a pipeline method to remove invalid corrections.
Outcome: The proposed method improves F0.5 score by 1.01% over 13 GEC systems in the BEA-2019 test set.
