A Word & Character N-Gram based Arabic OCR Error Simulation model [PDF]

open access: yesINTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF COMPUTERS & TECHNOLOGY, 2014
This paper provides a new model aimed to enhanceArabic OCR degraded text retrieval effectiveness. The proposed model based onsimulating the Arabic OCR recognition mistakesbased on both, word based and Character N-Gram approaches. Then we expand the user search query using the expected OCR errors. The resulting search query expanded gives high precision
