loformation Retrieval - using Porter Stemming Algorithm

Stemming is a process of removing or transforming endings (suffixes) when they are found on a word; inflectional endings (-s, -ing, -ed, etc) and derivational endings (-ion, - ative, -ity, -ment, -less, etc) and prefixes (un-, in-, etc). The rationale for using stemming is that similar words usua...
