Résumé
We present a stemming algorithm that does not only remove the endings of words, but also separates prefixes and suffixes from the remaining stem. The output of this algorithm creates more precise concept signatures for indexing and classifying documents. The algorithm has been successfully tested with prefix and suffix lists for medical terms.
