Abstract
In a method of forming a target error model to facilitate correcting or suggesting corrections to misspelled input text related to a target data collection, a source query log containing user queries to at least one source data collection is provided. Next, target relational data is generated based on the source query log including corrective substring suggestions that relate to the target data collection and corresponding misspelled substrings extracted from the source query log. A target error model is then built using the target relational data. The target error model includes target statistical occurrence data for the substrings of the target relational data derived from the source query log. Finally, the target error model is stored on a computer readable medium. Additional embodiments of the invention are directed to a system configured to implement the method.
