All of your examples stem to ковров:

   assertAnalyzesTo(a, Коврова Коврову Ковровом Коврове,
  new String[] { ковров, ковров, ковров, ковров });
}

Are you sure you enabled this at *both* index and query time?

2010/7/27 Oleg Burlaca o...@burlaca.com

 Hello,

 I'm using SnowballPorterFilterFactory with language=Russian.
 The stemming works ok except people names, geographical places.
 Here are some examples:

 searching for Ковров should also find Коврова, Коврову, Ковровом, Коврове.

 Are there other stemming plugins for the russian language that can handle
 this?
 If not, what are the options. A simple solution may be to use the wildcard
 queries in Standard mode instead of the DisMaxQueryHandler:
 Ковров*

 but I'd like to avoid it.

 Thanks.

another look, your problem is ковров itself... its mapped to ковр

a workaround might be to use the protected words functionality to
keep ковров and any other problematic people/geo names as-is.

separately, in trunk there is an alternative russian stemmer
(RussianLightStemFilterFactory), which might give you less problems on
average, but I noticed it has this same problem with the example you gave.

Re: Russian stemmer

2010-07-27 Thread Oleg Burlaca
Yes, I'm sure I've enabled SnowballPorterFilterFactory both at Index and
Query time, because the search works ok,
except names and geo locations.

I've noticed that searching by
Коврова

also shows documents that contain Коврову, Коврове

Search by Ковров, 7 results:
http://www.sova-center.ru/search/?q=%D0%BA%D0%BE%D0%B2%D1%80%D0%BE%D0%B2

Search by Коврова, 26 results:
http://www.sova-center.ru/search/?lg=1q=%D0%BA%D0%BE%D0%B2%D1%80%D0%BE%D0%B2%D0%B0

Adding such words in stopwords.txt will be a tedious task, as there are 7
millions russian names :)

Kind Regards,
Oleg Burlaca

Well, here is one idea of a more general solution.
The problem with protected words is you must have a complete list.

One idea would be to add a filter that protects any words from stemming that
match a regular expression:
In english maybe someone wants to avoid any capitalized words to reduce
trouble: [A-Z].*
in your case then some pattern like [A-Я].*ов might prevent problems.

Thanks Robert for all your help,

The idea of ы[A-Z].* stopwords is ideal for the english language,
although in russian nouns are inflected: Борис, Борису, Бориса, Борисом

I'll try the RussianLightStemFilterFactory (the article in the PDF mentioned

right, but your problem is this is the current output:

Коврову - Ковров
Ковровом - Ковров
Коврове - Ковров

so, if Ковров was simply left alone, all your forms would match...

I have studied some Russian. I kind of got the picture from the texts that all 
the exceptions had already been 'found', and were listed in the book. 

I do know that languages are living, changing organisms, but Russian has got to 
be more regular than English I would think, even WITH all six cases and 3 
genders.
