چکیده

In this paper we present a method for re-using the human judgements on summary quality provided by the DUC contest. The score to be awarded to automatic summaries is calculated as a function of the scores assigned manually to the most similar summaries for the same document. This approach enhances the standard n-gram based evaluation of automatic summarization systems by establishing similarities between extractive (vs. abstractive) summaries and by taking advantage of the big quantity of evaluated summaries available from the DUC contest. The utility of this method is exemplified by the improvements achieved on a headline production system.
