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.
