To study the performance of stemming algorithm on Malay words beginning with the letter "S" / Rohana Jantan

This thesis concerns the study of Malay stemming algorithm for the word beginning with the letter "S". This algorithm is used in the Malay language document that is used is the Quran translated document. A Malay stemming algorithm known as RulesApplication-Order (RAO) is applied in the exp...

In the experiments dictionaries of Malay root words and combination of morphological rules also used. The performance of the Malay stemming algorithm is evaluated by applying to the "S" word by removing different combination of prefixes.
