Character-based Surprisal as a Model of Reading Difficulty in the Presence of Errors

2019-05-17

Abstract excerpt

<p>Intuitively, human readers cope easily with errors in text; typos, misspelling, word substitutions, etc. do not unduly disrupt natural reading. Previous work indicates that letter transpositions result in increased reading times, but it is unclear if this effect generalizes to more natural errors. In this paper, we report an eye-tracking study that compares two error types (letter transpositions and naturally o...
