Primary sources

Computer linguistics: CL intro

Genetic Algorithms: An introduction to genetic algorithms

Linguistics: Dissertation partly about interferences. Has a nice error classification, error taxonomy, borrowing, tranfer etc etc. Seems like a nice intro to "What exists"

CL/ML resources

Text classification

Natural language classification with Python:Book, especially learning to classify text

With machine learning:

• with tensorflow and generally nns: [1]
• Machine Learning, NLP: Text Classification using scikit-learn, python and NLTK
• Working with scikit and text data

Error Detection

error detection using local word bigram and trigram + some others Automatic error analysis of machine translation output -- more about possible errors and ways to classify them

Somewhat similar problems being solved

Cross-cultural Deception Detection. It uses unigrams + LIWC (which is more psychological and less relevant)

• Deception detection -- has examples of extracted features which I might use
• [2] -- lie detector
• Linguistic Cues to Deception Assessed by Computer Programs: A Meta-Analysis -- also ideas of possible features that might be interesting to look into.

Think about sentiment detection etc

Most of those things are solved via Bag of Words which won't be enough for me, I think

Linguistics

Typical errors

Russian

• Similar-sounding and semantically non-identical words + idioms
• Grammar. Articles, connecting verbs, future tenss, negative sentences, commas etc etc -- really nice.

German

• list of sentences
• also examples, hard to generalize
• examples, a bit better ones?
• German reflexive verbs list which could be used to see differences between English and German reflexive verbs.

Indian

• Wikipedia - Indian English I thing this could be done just statistically?

Italian

??? try italian or french, depending on what works better?

Random

Natural Language Annotation for Machine Learning ebook, seems to cover quite a lot

downloads and demos -- datasets for CL lying detection -- generally interesting

Classification-as-a-service with free examples. Gender, MBTI, etc etc etc, pretty nice
