Contrastive Analysis with Predictive Power: Typology Driven Estimation of Grammatical Error Distributions in ESL

This work examines the impact of crosslinguistic transfer on grammatical errors in English as Second Language (ESL) texts. Using a computational framework that formalizes the theory of Contrastive Analysis (CA), we demonstrate that language specific error distributions in ESL writing can be predicte...
