Purpose: Wordvice AI Proofreader is a recently developed web-based artificial intelligence-driven text processor that provides real-time automated proofreading and editing of user-input text. It aims to compare its accuracy and effectiveness to expert proofreading by human editors and two other popular proofreading applications—automated writing analysis tools of Google Docs, and Microsoft Word. Because this tool was primarily designed for use by academic authors to proofread their manuscript drafts, the comparison of this tool’s efficacy to other tools was intended to establish the usefulness of this particular field for these authors.Methods: We performed a comparative analysis of proofreading completed by the Wordvice AI Proofreader, by experienced human academic editors, and by two other popular proofreading applications. The number of errors accurately reported and the overall usefulness of the vocabulary suggestions was measured using a General Language Evaluation Understanding metric and open dataset comparisons.Results: In the majority of texts analyzed, the Wordvice AI Proofreader achieved performance levels at or near that of the human editors, identifying similar errors and offering comparable suggestions in the majority of sample passages. The Wordvice AI Proofreader also had higher performance and greater consistency than that of the other two proofreading applications evaluated.Conclusion: We found that the overall functionality of the Wordvice artificial intelligence proofreading tool is comparable to that of a human proofreader and equal or superior to that of two other programs with built-in automated writing evaluation proofreaders used by tens of millions of users: Google Docs and Microsoft Word.

将 Wordvice AI Proofreader 的准确性和有效性与两个自动编辑工具和人工编辑器进行比较

用途:Wordvice AI Proofreader 是最近开发的基于网络的人工智能驱动的文本处理器,可对用户输入的文本进行实时自动校对和编辑。它旨在将其准确性和有效性与人工编辑的专家校对和其他两种流行的校对应用程序(Google Docs 的自动写作分析工具和 Microsoft Word)进行比较。因为这个工具主要是为学术作者设计的,用来校对他们的手稿,所以比较这个工具与其他工具的功效是为了确定这个特定领域对这些作者的有用性。方法:我们对完成的校对进行了比较分析由 Wordvice AI Proofreader、经验丰富的人类学术编辑以及其他两个流行的校对应用程序提供。使用通用语言评估理解指标和开放数据集比较来衡量准确报告的错误数量和词汇建议的整体有用性。结果:在分析的大多数文本中,Wordvice AI 校对器的性能水平达到或接近人工编辑,在大多数示例段落中识别类似的错误并提供可比较的建议。Wordvice AI Proofreader 也比其他两个被评估的校对应用程序具有更高的性能和更高的一致性。结论:
