Details

From Onix Text Retrieval Toolkit API Reference: "This stopword list was built by Gerard Salton and Chris Buckley for the experimental SMART information retrieval system at Cornell University. This stopword list is generally considered to be on the larger side and so when it is used, some implementations edit it so that it is better suited for a given domain and audience while others use this stopword list as it stands."
