Popis: |
We propose a novel stemming algorithm that is both robust and accurate compared to state-of-the-art solutions, yet addresses several of the problems that current stemmers face in the Dutch language. The main issue is that most current stemmers cannot handle 3rd person singular forms of verbs and many irregular words and conjugations, unless a (nearly) brute-force approach is used. Our algorithm combines a new tagging module with a stemmer that uses tag-specific sets of rigid rules: the Bag & Tag'em (BT) algorithm. The tagging module is developed and evaluated using three algorithms: Multinomial Logistic Regression (MLR), Neural Network (NN) and Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGB). The stemming module's performance is compared with that of current state-of-the-art stemming algorithms for the Dutch Language. Even though there is still room for improvement, the new BT algorithm performs well in the sense that it is more accurate than the current stemmers and faster than brute-force-like algorithms.
