Hi Laszlo,

Glad those links are helpful. It could be useful to factor out some common
punctuation, etc. rules that work across languages. I wouldn't move LightProof
to a library until it gets to 50K lines :-)  

Increasingly people realize AI is useless without data, so we can hope more
useful open datasets like Imagenet will become popular. Grammar is a
complicated problem, but that is what deep learning works best at. The
challenge today is that lots of people are building NL research toolkits, and
aren't trying to package up NL processing and great suggestions into one
component.

An online service could be a cool hackathon project, but it's a privacy,
performance, etc. challenge. We need to make the free desktop smart to stay
relevant. Inference should be able to run on low-end CPUs. A modern processor
can do 30 Imagenet inferences per second. I don't know what that translates
into grammar checking, but it is probably more than enough.  There are people
exploring ways to compress models, like Squeezenet:

The nice thing about the Link Grammar checker is that it seems to have an easy
API already. Do you think that could be an easy hack given the AbiWord wrapper
code and LightProof? It's not deep learning, but it should be a good way to
explore the possibilities of integrating a good engine.
