چکیده

We present a comparative study of lexical chain-based summarisation techniques. The aim of this paper is to highlight the effect of lexical chain scoring metrics and sentence extraction techniques on summary generation. We present our own lexical chain-based summarisation system and compare it to other chain-based summarisation systems. We also compare the chain scoring and extraction techniques of our system to those of several other baseline systems, including a random summarizer and one based on tf.idf statistics. We use a task-orientated summarisation evaluation scheme that determines summary quality based on TDT story link detection performance.

Bag of Senses Versus Bag of Words: Comparing Semantic and Lexical Approaches on Sentence Extraction

Sentence extraction is a valuable technique for automatic summarization. This paper presents LIC2M’s first participation in TAC evaluation campaign (update summarization task). We describe two main extractive approaches for summarization. The semantic strategy makes use of a bag-of-senses to calculate sense concentration on each sentence. In the lexical strategy, source text sentences are ranke...

Relevance of Cluster size in MMR based Summarizer : A Report

ion of documents by humans is complex to model as is any other information processing by humans. The abstracts differ from person to person, and usually vary in the style, language and detail. The process of abstraction is complex to be formulated mathematically or logically [14]. In the last decade some systems have been developed that generate abstractions using the latest natural language pr...

Towards multi-lingual summarization: A comparative analysis of sentence extraction methods on English and Hebrew corpora

The trend toward the growing multilinguality of the Internet requires text summarization techniques that work equally well in multiple languages. Only some of the automated summarization methods proposed in the literature, however, can be defined as “languageindependent”, as they are not based on any morphological analysis of the summarized text. In this paper, we perform an in-depth comparativ...
