Lucene-Spell-Checker

A Lucene 8.0.0 API based java application that, given a word from the user, scans an english dictionary and guesses the correct spell of the word

Four string distances supported:

  • Jaro-Winkler (default)
  • Levenshtein
  • Damerau–Levenshtein (aka LuceneLevenshteinDistance)
  • n-gram (with the default value n = 2)

It takes some time to execute the first time due to the creation of the index from the dictionary. After that, the execution time depends on your specs.

Examples
