Abstract

Over the last 15 years, the Information Science Research Institute (ISRI) at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV) has conducted information access research in the presence of OCR errors. Our research has focused on issues associated with the construction of large document databases. In this paper, we will highlight our findings and detail our current activities.
