Snowball Stemming: defining Regions
问题 I'm trying to understand the snoball stemming algorithmus. The algorithmus is using two regions R1 and R2 that are definied as follows: R1 is the region after the first non-vowel following a vowel, or is the null region at the end of the word if there is no such non-vowel. R2 is the region after the first non-vowel following a vowel in R1, or is the null region at the end of the word if there is no such non-vowel. http://snowball.tartarus.org/texts/r1r2.html Examples are b e a u t i f u l |<-
