58 * The Optimizer class is a Trie that will be reduced (have empty rows removed).
60 * This is the result of allowing a joining of rows when there is no collision
61 * between non-<tt>null</tt> values in the rows. Information loss, resulting in
62 * the stemmer not being able to recognize words (as in Optimizer), is
63 * curtailed, allowing the stemmer to recognize words for which the original
64 * trie was built. Use of this class allows the stemmer to be self-teaching.
66 public class Optimizer2 extends Optimizer {
68 * Constructor for the Optimizer2 object.
