Description:

stemmer

stemmer #
This package implements a stemming algorithm in Dart.
Currently, it supports PorterStemmer and
SnowballStemmer. It is a port of the exceptional
Python NLTK library.
About #
This package allows for stemming of words. This process reduces a word to their base form. In many
cases, the word will not even be recognisable. Where, for example, running would be stemmed to
run, which is still a valid word, yet agreed would be stemmed to agre.
Example #
PorterStemmer #
import 'package:stemmer/stemmer.dart';

PorterStemmer stemmer = PorterStemmer();
stemmer.stem('running'); // outputs: run
copied to clipboard
SnowballStemmer #
import 'package:stemmer/stemmer.dart';

SnowballStemmer stemmer = SnowballStemmer();
stemmer.stem('running'); // outputs: run
copied to clipboard
Case sentitive stemming #
The default behaviour is to always return lowercase stemmed words. However, if you wish you can keep
the original casing.
import 'package:stemmer/stemmer.dart';

SnowballStemmer stemmer = PorterStemmer();
stemmer.stem('Running'); // outputs: Run
