Hello, I am just posting this question out here since this might be a common problem and some of you might have good pointers.
Is there algorithms/api built into lucene that would help de pluralize words while indexing and/or while searching the index? Are there analyzers that do this already? There is tons of academic work on going in this area and I was wondering the best way to solve this problem. We have ideas and heuristics ourseleves, but would love input from the community here since this might be a common problem. Any pointers/ideas on this? Thank you, Mufaddal. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.
