“Performance Evaluation for Text Processing of Noisy Inputs,” Proceedings of the 20th Annual ACM Symposium on Applied Computing (Document Engineering Track), March 2005, Santa Fe, NM, pp. 759-763.


Abstract
We investigate the problem of evaluating the performance of text processing algorithms on inputs that contain errors as a result of optical character recognition. A new hierarchical paradigm is proposed based on approximate string matching, allowing each stage in the processing pipeline to be tested, the error effects analyzed, and possible solutions suggested.
