A Grounded Theory Approach to Expert Summarizing
1 report on an empirical approach to expert summarizing, emphasizing the qualitative modeling methods that shaped the system. In the framework of model-based knowledge engineering, the empirical grounded theory of summarizing is subsequently transferred to a small simulation system called SimSum (Simulation of Summarizing). SimSum shows that an empirical design of summarizing system is feasible...
متن کاملSimSum: an empirically founded simulation of summarizing
SimSum (Simulation of Summarizing) simulates 20 real-world working steps of expert summarizers. It presents an empirically founded cognitive model of summarizing and demonstrates that human summarization strategies can be simulated. The cognitive model operationalizes the discourse processing model developed by Kintsch and van Dijk (1983). Knowledge engineering followed the KADS approach, empir...
متن کامل1 Human - style WWW summarization 4 - 2 - 2000
Of course, setting up a summarization model that ensures smooth integration with human thinking is a relatively long process. Fig. 1 shows where the researchers are located in such a research strategy: An empirical model describing the intellectual strategies of human expert summarizers has been elaborated and published (most comprehensively in Endres-Niggemeyer 1998). The empirical model has b...
متن کاملTwo-stage cognitive modeling for human-style summarizing
In this paper I follow the development of a qualitative model of expert summarizing. It is founded on 54 working processes of six expert abstractors / indexers from Germany and the United States. The empirical summarization model has given rise to a computer simulation, the SimSum (Simulation of Summarizing) system. It demonstrates how human summarizers work and that human summarization strateg...
متن کاملDiverse types of review studies based on their approach to retrieving and summarizing original findings
Background: We are living in an era in which different branches of science are growing very rapidly. Therefore, retrieving and summarizing all new valid findings on a specific subject is one of the most important priorities of scientists. The aim of the present article is to categorize different review studies within the health domain based on their approach to retrieving and summarizing ...
