Training

You need a corpus:

  • XX-corpus.txt: A clean (orthographically correct) corpus in the language

You need two wordlists:

  • XX-clean.txt: A file with a list of known clean words
  • XX-prettyclean.txt: A file with a list of probably clean words (can be empty)
Process

First do 'make', you might want to edit the makefile to change your paths.

Then, put the source files (corpus, wordlists) where sf.pl can find them, and run:

$ cat cv-training.crp | perl sf.pl -t -l cv
Reading the clean dictionary...
Clean dictionary processed...
Reading the "pretty clean" dictionary...
"Pretty clean" dictionary processed...
Reading the training text...
Training texts processed (1143 words)...
Computing final probabilities...
Dumping plain text hashes to disk...

Then:

$ perl sf.pl -m -l cv
Reading in plain text hashes...
Saving storable hashes to disk...

Now you should be able to use the program.

Usage
$ cat testing/cv-source.txt  | perl sf.pl -r -d . -l cv
Evaluation

You can use apertium-eval-translator to evaluate the quality of the restoration:

$ apertium-eval-translator -t testing/cv-test.txt -r testing/cv-reference.txt 
Test file: 'testing/cv-test.txt'
Reference file 'testing/cv-reference.txt'
