Applications of Approximate Word Matching in Information Retrieval . Using the alternate representations of the affiliation string is helpful, but it does not allow fine control over the types of errors allowed. We have performed experiments on a small subset of the collection using this new approach. We have performed experiments on a small subset of the collection using this new approach. Preliminary experiments using the full collection show promise to reduce the number of clusters further without introducing further error.
More extensive experiments are forthcoming.
