is it possible to take a stemmed token from as index and run some sort of
reverse porter stemming to get a logical word, the problem is that porter
stemming is very aggressive, for example: people is indexed as peopl , so
basically my quesion is
if i have peoples , people, both indexed as peopl, is there a way to go from
peopl -> people (retrieving the root word would be fine)
Interesting question... I assume this is so you can do something like
retrieve the top terms for a field and have it more readable by an
end-user?
I don't think there is a way built into Lucene, but you could get
mostly there by keeping a reverse mapping yourself. Run a dictionary
of common words through the stemmer and keep track of what word
generated the stemmed word.
