Automatic Text Summarisation

Keywords: summary, latent semantic analysis, summarisation, summarization, summary evaluation, sentence compression, paraphrasing, news, social media,
Description: As the Internet is growing exponentially, huge amount of information is available online. The information overload problem can be curtailed by automatic summarisation. Currently studied topics are: language-independent summarisation (LSA, LDA) of news, social media and scientific papers; summarisation evaluation in multiple languages; opinion and comparative summarisation; using coreference for summarisation; and summary generation (sentence compression and paraphrasing).
Status: In progress
