• Downloading software and datasets for the above-said survey. Also available on this page.
• A catalog of links on information retrieval and machine learning.

• FAQ on approximate search techniques:
• A review important articles devoted to information retrieval and fuzzy string searching.
• Implementations of approximate search (fuzzy search) algorithms including agrep algorithms and algorithms to compute Levenshtein distance (C++, Transact SQL).
