Task-Focused Summarization Of Email
نویسندگان
چکیده
We describe SmartMail, a prototype system for automatically identifying action items (tasks) in email messages. SmartMail presents the user with a task-focused summary of a message. The summary consists of a list of action items extracted from the message. The user can add these action items to their “to do” list.

Beyond SumBasic: Task-focused summarization with sentence simplification and lexical expansion
In recent years, there has been increased interest in topic-focused multi-document summarization. In this task, automatic summaries are produced in response to a specific information request, or topic, stated by the user. The system we have designed to accomplish this task comprises four main components: a generic extractive summarization system, a topic-focusing component, sentence simplificat...
متن کاملFocused Meeting Summarization via Unsupervised Relation Extraction
We present a novel unsupervised framework for focused meeting summarization that views the problem as an instance of relation extraction. We adapt an existing in-domain relation learner (Chen et al., 2011) by exploiting a set of task-specific constraints and features. We evaluate the approach on a decision summarization task and show that it outperforms unsupervised utterance-level extractive s...
متن کاملAffinity-Preserving Random Walk for Multi-Document Summarization
Multi-document summarization provides users with a short text that summarizes the information in a set of related documents. This paper introduces affinitypreserving random walk to the summarization task, which preserves the affinity relations of sentences by an absorbing random walk model. Meanwhile, we put forward adjustable affinity-preserving random walk to enforce the diversity constraint ...
متن کاملSentence Position revisited: A robust light-weight Update Summarization baseline Algorithm
In this paper, we describe a sentence position based summarizer that is built based on a sentence position policy, created from the evaluation testbed of recent summarization tasks at Document Understanding Conferences (DUC). We show that the summarizer thus built is able to outperform most systems participating in task focused summarization evaluations at Text Analysis Conferences (TAC) 2008. ...
متن کاملPolyU's Experimentation with Guided Summarization
In addition to the familiar tasks of update summarization and automatic summary evaluation, the TAC 2010 summarization track includes a new task: guided summarization. It is designed to “encourage a deeper linguistic (semantic) analysis of the source documents” in order to generate a summary guided by a given set of aspects. The new task is an upgrade of query-focused summarization in that an a...
