Searching the ICDAR 2001 Articles
A basic full-text search capability is provided in a platform
independent way through JSS, the JavaScript Search Engine.
Because it is 100% JavaScript, JSS requires no software
installation, and runs on just about any platform.
JSS is compatible with Netscape 6 (Windows and Linux/Unix), on IE 5.x (Windows),
and on Netscape 4.7x (Linux/Unix only). It works, but is extremely (and
inexplicably) slow on the Windows version of Netscape 4.7x.
Using JSS
Type one or several words in the search string above.
The list of articles that contain all the words in the list
will be displayed.
If a pair of words is separated by the keyword "OR",
the list of articles that contains either of the
two words will be displayed.
Example:
bottou OR haffner
JSS information and credits
A few notes for the technically inclined:
- The accuracy of the search is subject to errors
of the Optical Character Recognition process.
- Search words are folded to lowercase and stemmed
(e.g. final "s", "ing", and "ed" are removed).
- Short words with 3 letters or less that are not capitalized in
the original text are not indexed.
- JSS uses an inverted word list encoded and compressed
as strings of ISO-Latin characters in the JavaScript source
code.
JSS was written by Yann LeCun and Florin Nicsa.
