"Stemming is the process of reducing inflection in words to their root forms such as mapping a group of words to the same stem even if the stem itself is not a valid word in the Language." Later in this tutorial, you will go through some of the significant uses of Stemming and Lemmatization in applications. For example, searching for fish on Google will also result in fishes, fishing as fish is the stem of both words. Stemming and Lemmatization are widely used in tagging systems, indexing, SEOs, Web search results, and information retrieval. Stemming is different to Lemmatization in the approach it uses to produce root forms of words and the word produced.
Stemming and Lemmatization helps us to achieve the root forms (sometimes called synonyms in search context) of inflected (derived) words. Let's look at a few examples,Ībove examples must have helped you understand the concept of normalization of text, although normalization of text is not restricted to only written document but to speech as well. As you have read the definition of inflection with respect to grammar, you can understand that an inflected word(s) will have a common root form. The degree of inflection may be higher or lower in a language. An inflection expresses one or more grammatical categories with a prefix, suffix or infix, or another internal modification such as a vowel change" "In grammar, inflection is the modification of a word to express different grammatical categories such as tense, case, voice, aspect, person, number, gender, and mood. When a language contains words that are derived from another word as their use in the speech changes is called Inflected Language.
Languages we speak and write are made up of several words often derived from one another. In this tutorial you will learn about Stemming and Lemmatization in a practical approach covering the background, some famous algorithms, applications of Stemming and Lemmatization, and how to stem and lemmatize words, sentences and documents using the Python nltk package which is the Natural Language Tool Kit package provided by Python for Natural Language Processing tasks. Stemming and Lemmatization have been studied, and algorithms have been developed in Computer Science since the 1960's. Stemming and Lemmatization are Text Normalization (or sometimes called Word Normalization) techniques in the field of Natural Language Processing that are used to prepare text, words, and documents for further processing.
