An educational tool for young students that helps with writing essays

• At primary levels of education in Vietnam, students are introduced to 5 categories of essays:

  • Argumentative - Nghị luận
  • Expressive - Biểu cảm
  • Descriptive - Miêu tả
  • Narrative - Tự sự
  • Expository - Thuyết minh

• New students usually find it hard to write the required category (E.g. Students describe too much in an expressive essay).

• This AI assistant includes a Fine-tuned SequenceClassificationPhoBERT model for classifying categories of input essay and a self written SpellCorrect algorithm for spell-checking and alternative-suggesting.

• For more information about this project, you can go to my slides or you can see more in my streamlit app. VNcoreNLP has updated a new python wrapper and the app in this repo are currently outdated

• You can also find the model used in this App on Huggingface
