PYTHON PROGRAM RELATED TO INFORMATION RETRIEVAL AND WEB SEARCH

 

Problem 1 [30 points]. Write a (Python) program that preprocesses a 

collection of documents using the recommendations given in the

Text Operations lecture. The input to the program will be a directory

containing a list of text files. Use the files from assignment #3 as

test data as well as 10 documents (manually) collected from news.yahoo.com .

The yahoo documents must be converted to text before using them.



Remove the following during the preprocessing:

- digits

- punctuation

- stop words (use the generic list available at ...ir-websearch/papers/english.stopwords.txt)

- urls and other html-like strings

- uppercases

- morphological variations
Above mentioned assignment 3# file is also attached and by running this code in anaconda spider you can see the output
