Reader-Aware Multi-Document Summarization: An Enhanced Model and The First Dataset
نویسندگان
چکیده
We investigate the problem of readeraware multi-document summarization (RA-MDS) and introduce a new dataset for this problem. To tackle RA-MDS, we extend a variational auto-encodes (VAEs) based MDS framework by jointly considering news documents and reader comments. To conduct evaluation for summarization performance, we prepare a new dataset. We describe the methods for data collection, aspect annotation, and summary writing as well as scrutinizing by experts. Experimental results show that reader comments can improve the summarization performance, which also demonstrates the usefulness of the proposed dataset. The annotated dataset for RA-MDS is available online1.

Reader-Aware Multi-Document Summarization via Sparse Coding
We propose a new MDS paradigm called readeraware multi-document summarization (RA-MDS). Specifically, a set of reader comments associated with the news reports are also collected. The generated summaries from the reports for the event should be salient according to not only the reports but also the reader comments. To tackle this RAMDS problem, we propose a sparse-coding-based method that is ab...
متن کاملA survey on Automatic Text Summarization
Text summarization endeavors to produce a summary version of a text, while maintaining the original ideas. The textual content on the web, in particular, is growing at an exponential rate. The ability to decipher through such massive amount of data, in order to extract the useful information, is a major undertaking and requires an automatic mechanism to aid with the extant repository of informa...
متن کاملRevisiting the Centroid-based Method: A Strong Baseline for Multi-Document Summarization
The centroid-based model for extractive document summarization is a simple and fast baseline that ranks sentences based on their similarity to a centroid vector. In this paper, we apply this ranking to possible summaries instead of sentences and use a simple greedy algorithm to find the best summary. Furthermore, we show possibilities to scale up to larger input document collections by selectin...
متن کاملEXTRACTION-BASED TEXT SUMMARIZATION USING FUZZY ANALYSIS
Due to the explosive growth of the world-wide web, automatictext summarization has become an essential tool for web users. In this paperwe present a novel approach for creating text summaries. Using fuzzy logicand word-net, our model extracts the most relevant sentences from an originaldocument. The approach utilizes fuzzy measures and inference on theextracted textual information from the docu...
متن کاملSignificance of Sentence Ordering in Multi Document Summarization
Multi-document summarization represents the information in a concise and comprehensive manner. In this paper we discuss the significance of ordering of sentences in multi document summarization. We show experimental results on DUC2002 dataset. These results show the ordering of summaries before and, improvement in this, after applying sentence ordering. For this purpose we used a term frequency...
