Abstract
A method for organizing and processing feature based data structures that can be used in linguistic spell checking and auto-correction, comprising: splitting an original dictionary into sub-dictionaries based on different values of a common feature such as high frequency words; receiving an input text that contains errors; determining a sub-dictionary selection feature from the input human-readable text; selecting the sub-dictionary based on the determined sub-dictionary selection feature; executing a first matching in the selected sub-dictionary, wherein a match is found if a similarity between the characters, words, or phrases in proximity of the errors in the input text and a character, word, or phrase in the sub-dictionary is above a threshold; if a unique match is found, the result is returned as an output to correct the errors; otherwise, executing a second matching with a raised threshold, and repeating the second matching until a unique match is found.
