Lingua::Stem::Fr(3pm)					User Contributed Perl Documentation				     Lingua::Stem::Fr(3pm)

NAME

       Lingua::Stem::Fr - Perl French Stemming

SYNOPSIS

	   use Lingua::Stem::Fr;

	   my $stems = Lingua::Stem::Fr::stem({ -words => $word_list_reference,
						-locale => 'fr',
						-exceptions => $exceptions_hash,
					     });

	   my $stem = Lingua::Stem::Fr::stem_word( $word );

DESCRIPTION

       This module use the a modified version of the Porter Stemming Algorithm to return a stemmed words.

       The algorithm is implemented as described in:

       http://snowball.tartarus.org/french/stemmer.html

       with some improvement.

       The code is carefully crafted to work in conjunction with the Lingua::Stem module by Benjamin Franz.  This french version is based too, on
       the work of Aldo Calpini (Italian Version)

METHODS

       o   stem({ -words => @words, -locale => 'fr', -exceptions => \%exceptions }); Stems a list of passed words. Returns an anonymous list
	   reference to the stemmed words.

	   Example:

	       my $stemmed_words = Lingua::Stem::Fr::stem({ -words => @words,
							    -locale => 'fr',
							    -exceptions => \%exceptions,
							 });

       o   stem_word( $word );

	   Stems a single word and returns the stem directly.

	   Example:

	       my $stem = Lingua::Stem::Fr::stem_word( $word );

       o   stem_caching({ -level => 0|1|2 });

	   Sets the level of stem caching.

	   '0' means 'no caching'. This is the default level.

	   '1' means 'cache per run'. This caches stemming results during a single
	       call to 'stem'.

	   '2' means 'cache indefinitely'. This caches stemming results until
	       either the process exits or the 'clear_stem_cache' method is called.

       o   clear_stem_cache;

	   Clears the cache of stemmed words

NAME

       Lingua::Stem::It - Porter's stemming algorithm for Italian

SYNOPSIS

	   use Lingua::Stem::It;
	   my $stems = Lingua::Stem::It::stem({ -words => $word_list_reference,
						-locale => 'it',
						-exceptions => $exceptions_hash,
					     });

	   my $stem = Lingua::Stem::It::stem_word( $word );

DESCRIPTION

       This module applies the Porter Stemming Algorithm to its parameters, returning the stemmed words.

       The algorithm is implemented exactly (I hope :-) as described in:

	   http://snowball.tartarus.org/algorithms/italian/stemmer.html

       The code is carefully crafted to work in conjunction with the Lingua::Stem module by Benjamin Franz, from which I've also borrowed some
       functionalities (caching and exception list).

METHODS

       stem({ -words => @words, -locale => 'it', -exceptions => \%exceptions });
	   Stems a list of passed words. Returns an anonymous list reference to the stemmed words.

	   Example:

	     my $stemmed_words = Lingua::Stem::It::stem({ -words => @words,
							  -locale => 'it',
							  -exceptions => \%exceptions,
				     });

       stem_word( $word );
	   Stems a single word and returns the stem directly.

	   Example:

	     my $stem = Lingua::Stem::It::stem_word( $word );

       stem_caching({ -level => 0|1|2 });
	   Sets the level of stem caching.

	   '0' means 'no caching'. This is the default level.

	   '1' means 'cache per run'. This caches stemming results during a single
	       call to 'stem'.

	   '2' means 'cache indefinitely'. This caches stemming results until
	       either the process exits or the 'clear_stem_cache' method is called.

       clear_stem_cache;
	   Clears the cache of stemmed words

   EXPORT
       None by default.
