Extractive Summarization Methods - Subtitles and Method Combinations

In some previous work, we have presented a software tool for experimenting with well known methods for text summarization. The methods offered are belonging to the extractive summarization direction. These methods do not understand the meaning in order to condense the text but simply extract a subset of the original sentences which are the most (promising as being) relevant for expressing shortly the text meaning. However, in order to pay attention to the whole idea (a workbench for testing available extractive summarization), we have avoided to concentrate to some potential improvements or we have made some simplification assumptions of the existing extractive summarization methods. Here, we remove the simplifications and also examine some improvements to the existing methods, in order to achieve better summarizations.
