Abstract:
The semantic information of mathematical expressions plays an important role in information retrieval and similarity calculation. However, a large number of presentational expressions in the presentation MathML format contained in electronic scientific documents do not reflect semantic information. It is a shortcut to extract semantic information using the rule mapping method to convert presentational expressions in presentation MathML format into semantic expressions in the content MathML format. However, the conversion result is prone to semantic errors because the expressions in the two formats do not have exact correspondences in grammatical structures and markups. In this study, a Bayesian error correction algorithm is proposed to correct the semantic errors in the conversion results of mathematical expressions based on the rule mapping method. In this study, the expressions in presentation MathML and content MathML in the NTCIR data set are used as the training set to optimize the parameters of the Bayesian model. The expressions in presentation MathML in the documents collected by the laboratory from the CNKI website are used as the test set to test the error correction results. The experimental results show that the average $ {F_1} $ value is 0.239 with the rule mapping method, and the average $ {F_1} $ value is 0.881 with the Bayesian error correction method, with the average error correction rate is 0.853.

Types of Errors: Detection and Minimization
Absolute error in a measurement is the numerical difference from the true or central value. Relative error is the ratio between absolute error and the true or central value, expressed as a percentage.
Errors can be classified by source, magnitude, and sign. There are three types of errors: systematic, random, and gross.

Accuracy and Errors in Hypothesis Testing
In hypothesis testing, the probability of making a Type I error, denoted as α, is commonly set at 0.05. This significance level indicates a 5%...
