= Czaccent

== Description
The `czaccent` system adds diacritics into Czech text without diacritics; it uses statistical evaluation of all possible variants. The working data was trained on a very large Czech corpus. The system can be used as a command line tool or a web service. It is also available as API; see [https://nlp.fi.muni.cz/languageservices/#diacritics].

More information about the system can be found in RYCHLÝ, Pavel. !CzAccent - Simple Tool for Restoring Accents in Czech Texts. In Aleš Horák, Pavel Rychlý (eds.). 6th Workshop on Recent Advances in Slavonic Natural Language Processing. Brno: Tribun EU, 2012. s. 15-22. ISBN 978-80-263-0313-8.

== How to use the tool
You can insert text up to tens of kB into the input field. If the conversion doesn't work for longer texts, the problem is in your browser or on the way to the server (firewall, proxy).

The data from the form can be saved in two ways: by default, to improve the service, we save the entered plain text (and no other data related to the query) as test data. If you choose the 'Neukládat text' option, we only save the IP address of the request so that we know how often this service is requested. If necessary, you can request that your data be deleted by emailing the contact below. You must specify the text or IP address in the request, as we cannot identify them otherwise.
