Abstract

Abstract Although Czech rule-based tools for automatic punctuation insertion rely on extensive grammar and achieve respectable precision, the pre-trained Transformers outperform rule-based systems in precision and recall (Machura et al. 2022). The Czech pre-trained RoBERTa model achieves excellent results, yet a certain level of phenomena is ignored, and the model partially makes errors. This paper aims to investigate whether it is possible to retrain the RoBERTa language model to increase the number of sentence commas the model correctly detects. We have chosen a very specific and narrow type of sentence comma, namely the sentence comma delimiting vocative phrases, which is clearly defined in the grammar and is very often omitted by writers. The chosen approaches were further tested and evaluated on different types of texts.
