The present invention relates to a candidate word evaluation method and apparatus, a
computer device and a storage medium, which are applied to the field of
data processing. The method comprises: whendetecting a wrong word, acquiring a plurality of candidate words corresponding to the wrong word; determining similarity between each candidate word and the wrong word, wherein the similarity is obtained according to a longest common subsequence and / or a longest common
substring between each candidate word and the wrong word; respectively replacing the wrong word with each candidate word to obtain a candidate
sentence, and determining an evaluation probability of the corresponding candidate word according to the candidate
sentence, wherein the evaluation probability is obtained according to alocale probability of the candidate word in the candidate
sentence and a locale probability of the adjacent words of the candidate word; acquiring error information of the wrong word with respect toeach candidate word; and determining an evaluation
score corresponding to each candidate word according to the similarity, the evaluation probability, and the error information. According to embodiments of the present invention, the problem of low reliability of the candidate word evaluation is solved, and the reliability of the candidate word
evaluation result can be improved in a facilitated manner.
