GreekStemmer

A simple Greek stemmer algorithm.

This algorithm is based on this paper from George Ntais.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'greek_stemmer'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install greek_stemmer

Usage

In order to use this stemmer you should normalize input. Normalization means two things for this algorithm: detone and upcase.

  require 'greek_stemmer'

  GreekStemmer.stem("ΠΟΣΟΤΗΤΑ") # => "ΠΟΣΟΤΗΤ"
