<section><p>Simple automaton-based spellchecker.
<p>
Candidates are presented directly from the term dictionary, based on
Levenshtein distance. This is an alternative to <a class="xref" href="Lucene.Net.Search.Spell.SpellChecker.html">SpellChecker</a>
if you are using an edit-distance-like metric such as Levenshtein
or <a class="xref" href="Lucene.Net.Search.Spell.JaroWinklerDistance.html">JaroWinklerDistance</a>.
</p>
<p>
A practical benefit of this spellchecker is that it requires no additional
datastructures (neither in RAM nor on disk) to do its work.</p>

<section><p>Damerau-Levenshtein (optimal string alignment) implemented in a consistent
way as Lucene&apos;s FuzzyTermsEnum with the transpositions option enabled.</p>
<p>Notes:
<ul><li> This metric treats full unicode codepoints as characters</li><li> This metric scales raw edit distances into a floating point score
based upon the shortest of the two terms</li><li> Transpositions of two adjacent codepoints are treated as primitive
edits.</li><li> Edits are applied in parallel: for example, &quot;ab&quot; and &quot;bca&quot; have
distance 3.</li></ul></p>
<p>NOTE: this class is not particularly efficient. It is only intended
for merging results from multiple DirectSpellCheckers.</p>

<h4><a class="xref" href="Lucene.Net.Search.Spell.NGramDistance.html">NGramDistance</a></h4>
<section><p>N-Gram version of edit distance based on paper by Grzegorz Kondrak,
&quot;N-gram similarity and distance&quot;. Proceedings of the Twelfth International
Conference on String Processing and Information Retrieval (SPIRE 2005), pp. 115-126,
Buenos Aires, Argentina, November 2005.
<a href="http://www.cs.ualberta.ca/~kondrak/papers/spire05.pdf">http://www.cs.ualberta.ca/~kondrak/papers/spire05.pdf</a></p>
<p>This implementation uses the position-based optimization to compute partial
matches of n-gram sub-strings and adds a null-character prefix of size n-1
so that the first character is contained in the same number of n-grams as
a middle character. Null-character prefix matches are discounted so that
strings with no matching characters will return a distance of 0.</p>

// To index a file containing words:
spellchecker.IndexDictionary(new PlainTextDictionary(new FileInfo(&quot;myfile.txt&quot;)));
