Hi,
I think for most implementations you need to tokenize your text into a 1-gram
vector prior to stemming/lemmatization, but you can always call " ".join or so
if you'd like to get the results back as a string.
>>> sentence = 'Stemming is funnier than a bummer says the sushi loving
>>> computer scientist'
>>> from nltk.stem.porter import PorterStemmer
>>> porter = PorterStemmer()
>>> porter.stem(sentence)
'Stemming is funnier than a bummer says the sushi loving computer scientist'
The example above doesn't work, you'd need to tokenize first:
>>> tokenizer_porter = lambda text: [porter.stem(word) for word in text.split()]
>>> tokenizer_porter(sentence)
['Stem', 'is', 'funnier', 'than', 'a', 'bummer', 'say', 'the', 'sushi', 'love',
'comput', 'scientist']
And you stem/lemmatize a sentence like so
>>> sentence_porter = lambda text: ' '.join([porter.stem(word) for word in
>>> text.split()])
>>> sentence_porter(sentence)
'Stem is funnier than a bummer say the sushi love comput scientist'
To use the custom tokenizer in a pipeline:
>>> CountVectorizer(binary=False,
stop_words=stop_words,
ngram_range=(1,1),
preprocessor=lambda text: re.sub('[^a-zA-Z]', ' ', text.lower()),
tokenizer=tokenizer_porter)
If I remember correctly, the "processing" order is
preprocessor -> tokenizer -> ngram_range
Thus, you could also pass the "sentence_porter" to the preprocessor and let the
`tokenizer & ngram_range` do the rest. But that would be computationally more
inefficient.
Best,
Sebastian
