7 Conclusion
</SectionTitle>
    <Paragraph position="0"> To our knowledge, this paper is the first to show a successful attempt of using the collective knowledge stored in search query logs for the spelling correction task. We presented a technique to mine this extremely informative but very noisy resource that actually exploits the errors made by people as a way to do effective query spelling correction. A direction that we plan to investigate is the adaptation of such a technique to the general purpose spelling correction, by using statistics from both query-logs and large office document collections.</Paragraph>
