SIMFINDER: A Flexible Clustering Tool for Summarization
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a statistical similarity measuring and clustering tool, SIMFINDER, that organizes small pieces of text from one or multiple documents into tight clusters. By placing highly related text units in the same cluster, SIMFINDER enables a subsequent content selection/generation component to reduce each cluster to a single sentence, either by extraction or by reformulation. We report on improvements in the similarity and clustering components of SIMFINDER, including a quantitative evaluation, and establish the generality of the approach by interfacing SIMFINDER to two very different summarization systems.

متن کاملMDSWriter: Annotation Tool for Creating High-Quality Multi-Document Summarization Corpora
In this paper, we present MDSWriter, a novel open-source annotation tool for creating multi-document summarization corpora. A major innovation of our tool is that we divide the complex summarization task into multiple steps which enables us to efficiently guide the annotators, to store all their intermediate results, and to record user–system interaction data. This allows for evaluating the ind...

Due to the explosive growth of the world-wide web, automatictext summarization has become an essential tool for web users. In this paperwe present a novel approach for creating text summaries. Using fuzzy logicand word-net, our model extracts the most relevant sentences from an originaldocument. The approach utilizes fuzzy measures and inference on theextracted textual information from the docu...
متن کاملFuzzy Clustering for Topic Analysis and Summarization of Document Collections
Large document collections, such as those delivered by Internet search engines, are difficult and time-consuming for users to read and analyse. The detection of common and distinctive topics within a document set, together with the generation of multi-document summaries, can greatly ease the burden of information management. We show how this can be achieved with a clustering algorithm based on ...
متن کاملChoosing the Best Hierarchical Clustering Technique Based on Principal Components Analysis for Suspended Sediment Load Estimation
1- INTRODUCTION The assessment of watershed sediment load is necessary for controling soil erosion and reducing the potential of sediment production. Different estimates of sediment amounts along with the lack of long-term measurements limits the accessibility to reliable data series of erosion rate and sediment yield. Therefore, the observed data of suspended sediment load could be used to ...
