Abstract
Many researches and inventions have been madein the field of linguistics and technology. Even so, theintegration between linguistics and technology is not alwaysreliable to all language. Every language is unique in itslinguistic nature and rules. In this paper, a lemmatizationtechnique in Bahasa (Indonesian language) is presented. Ithas achieved good precision by using The IndonesianDictionary and a set of rules to remove affixes. Thelemmatization technique is developed based on the previousalgorithm, Indonesian stemmer. Both Indonesian stemmingand lemmatization method have the same characteristicsbut a little bit different in its implementation. The way toreach its own goal/purpose is defined as a core differenceand therefore possible to modify. The result shows that thealgorithm achieved roughly 98% precision on a collectionconsisting 57,261 valid words with 7,839 unique valid wordsgathered from Kompas.com, an Indonesian online newsarticle.
