Özet
In this paper, we introduce a new lexicon free, probabilistic stemmer to be used in a developing Turkish Information Retrieval system. It has a linear computational complexity and its test success ratio is 95.8%. The main contribution of this paper is to give a thorough description of a probabilistic perspective for stemming which can also be generalized to apply to other agglutinative languages like Finnish, Hungarian, Estonian and Czech.
