Overview

|
|
word stem.

Unit tests for the Porter stemmer
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
>>> from nltk.stem.porter import *
|
|
|
|
Create a new Porter stemmer.
|
|
|
|
>>> stemmer = PorterStemmer()
|
|
|
|
Test the stemmer on various pluralised words.
|
|
|
|
>>> plurals = ['caresses', 'flies', 'dies', 'mules', 'denied',
|
|
... 'died', 'agreed', 'owned', 'humbled', 'sized',
|
|
... 'meeting', 'stating', 'siezing', 'itemization',
|
|
... 'sensational', 'traditional', 'reference', 'colonizer',
|
|
... 'plotted']
|
|
|
|
>>> singles = [stemmer.stem(plural) for plural in plurals]
|
|
|
|
>>> print(' '.join(singles)) # doctest: +NORMALIZE_WHITESPACE
|
|
caress fli die mule deni die agre own humbl size meet
|
|

Unit tests for Snowball stemmer
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
>>> from nltk.stem.snowball import SnowballStemmer
|
|
|
|
See which languages are supported.
|
|
|
|
>>> print(" ".join(SnowballStemmer.languages))
|
|
arabic danish dutch english finnish french german hungarian italian
|
|
norwegian porter portuguese romanian russian spanish swedish
|
|
|
|
Create a new instance of a language specific subclass.
|
|
|
|
>>> stemmer = SnowballStemmer("english")
|
|
|
|
Stem a word.
|
|
|
|
>>> print(stemmer.stem("running"))
|
|
run
|
|
|
|
Decide not to stem stopwords.
|
|
|
|
>>> stemmer2 = SnowballStemmer("english", ignore_stopwords=True)
|
|
>>> print(stemmer.stem("having"))
|
|
have
|
|
>>> print(stemmer2.stem("having"))
|
|
having
|
|
|
|
The 'english' stemmer is better than the original 'porter' stemmer.
|
|
|
|
>>> print(SnowballStemmer("english").stem("generously"))
|
|
generous
|
|
>>> print(SnowballStemmer("porter").stem("generously"))
|
|
gener
|
|
|
