    Stemming

    +

    Stemming is a process which transforms inflected words into + their most basic form. For exemple, flooring, + floors, floored would probably all be transformed + to floor by a stemmer for the English language.

    + +

    In many search engines, the stemming process occurs during + indexing. The index will only contain the stemmed form of words, + with exceptions for terms which are detected as being probably + proper nouns (ie: capitalized). At query time, the terms entered + by the user are stemmed, then matched against the index.

    + +

    This process results into a smaller index, but it has the + grave inconvenient of irrevocably losing information during + indexing.

    + +

    Recoll works in a different way. No stemming is performed at + query time, so that all information gets into the index. The + resulting index is bigger, but most people probably don't care + much about this nowadays, because they have a 100Gb disk 95% + full of binary data which does not get indexed.

    +

    At the end of an indexing pass, Recoll builds one or several + stemming dictionaries, where all word stems are listed in + correspondence to the list of their derivatives.

    + +

    At query time, by default, user-entered terms are stemmed, + then matched against the stem database, and the query is + expanded to include all derivatives. This will yield search + results analogous to those obtained by a classical engine. + The benefits of this approach is that stem expansion can be + controlled instantly at query time in several ways: +
