Hi, I've recently been looking into Spellchecking in solr, and was struck by how limited the usefulness of the tool was.
Like most corpora , ours contains lots of different spelling mistakes for the same word, so the 'spellcheck.onlyMorePopular' is not really that useful unless you click on it numerous times. I was thinking that since most of the time people spell words correctly why was there no other frequency parameter that could enter into the score? i.e. something like: spell_score ~ edit_dist * freq I'm sure others have come across this issue and was wonding what steps/algorithms they have used to overcome these limitations? Cheers, Dan
