Tag Cloud Viewer With Stemming
Posted by admin on May 31 2010 04:22:42pmThis flow is similar to the "Tag Cloud Viewer" flow, but adds the components necessary to perform stemming. This flow will display a tag cloud for a url that points to a text document. For pdf, the text is extracted from the pdf file and
a tag cloud is created for words. For html, the html tags are removed
and then a tag cloud is created for the words.
This flow applies stemming to the words to create a dictionary of terms used, then reverse stems to the shortest word with the same mapping for the tag cloud visualization. So "run", "runs", "running" would map to "run" and the word used in the tag cloud visualization would be "run". If the word "run" did not exist, then the shortest word that exists in the dictionary created would be used, in this case "runs".
