- Abstract
- Desribes stemming algorithms - programs that relate morphologically similar indexing and search terms. Stemming is used to improve retrieval effectiveness and to reduce the size of indexing files. Several approaches to stemming are describes - table lookup, affix removal, successor variety, and n-gram. empirical studies of stemming are summarized. The Porter stemmer is described in detail, and a full implementation in C is presented
