Hello! I'm quite new to rapidminer and now I'm doing a text mining project for my class's homework.

I want to know how to use Filter Stopwords (Dictionary), because I couldn't find any tutorial about it. I choose to use this operator because my language (Indonesian) didn't support by rapidminer.

I've read some other questions about Filter Stopwords (Dictionary) in this forum, but I don't really understand because they use the XML script. Honestly, I don't know anything about XML :catfrustrated:

Do I need XML text to use Filter Stopwords (DIctionary)? Or I just can use it by import the plain text (which has stopwords list) to rapidminer?

I need your help. Thank you!

    Hi. How do we exclude some of the stop words used by RapidMiner? I am happy with the current list but need to exclude only one or two words.
    Thanks

    The easiest way would be to just create your own Stopword list (based on the RapidMiner list and removing the ones you don't want) and then use the Filter Stopword (Dictionary) operator.  There is no way to selectively use the lists for the other stopwords operators.

    Hello everyone. This might be a stupid question, but where do you find this plain text file for the Filter Stopwords (Dictionary) operator? The parameters section for this operator is empty. Where do I find it or how can I import it? Thanks!
