https://peertube.debian.social/videos/watch/18f23671-3095-4065-b3b7-95deb2242429 by Olly Betts At: DebConf25 https://debconf25.debconf.org/talks/193-stemming-with-snowball/ Search is pervasive in the modern world, but for many human languages an effective search feature benefits significantly from stemming. Snowball provides stemming for 30 human languages, and can generate code for 9 programming languages, with further programming languages supported via bindings to the generated C code. It's widely used behind the scenes, including by Lucene, PostreSQL and Xapian. If you've used the search features on the Debian website, lists or wiki you've likely used Snowball. I'll give an introduction to Snowball covering what it can do for you, what it can't do for you, and what you might be able to do for Snowball if you're interested. https://snowballstem.org/ Room: Petit amphi Scheduled start: 2025-07-14 14:00:00+02:00 Sat, 29 Aug 2026 07:53:02 GMT https://validator.w3.org/feed/docs/rss2.html PeerTube - https://peertube.debian.social https://peertube.debian.social/client/assets/images/icons/icon-96x96.png https://peertube.debian.social/videos/watch/18f23671-3095-4065-b3b7-95deb2242429 All rights reserved, unless otherwise specified in the terms specified at https://peertube.debian.social/about and potential licenses granted by each content's rightholder.
