Program 14.3 (1980): 130-137. with some optional deviations that can be turned on or off with the `mode` argument to the constructor. Martin Porter, the algorithm's inventor, maintains a web page about the algorithm at http://www.tartarus.org/~martin/PorterStemmer/ which includes another Python implementation and other implementations in many languages.
