Stemming algorithms

PyStemmer provides access to efficient algorithms for calculating a
"stemmed" form of a word.  This is a form with most of the common
morphological endings removed; hopefully representing a common
linguistic base form.  This is most useful in building search engines
and information retrieval software; for example, a search with stemming
enabled should be able to find a document containing "cycling" given the
query "cycles".

PyStemmer provides algorithms for several (mainly European) languages,
by wrapping the libstemmer library from the Snowball project in a Python
module.

It also provides access to the classic Porter stemming algorithm for
English: although this has been superseded by an improved algorithm, the
original algorithm may be of interest to information retrieval
researchers wishing to reproduce results of earlier experiments.
