Tone Biased MMR Text Summarization
share
Text summarization is an interesting area for researchers to develop new techniques to provide human like summaries for vast amounts of information. Summarization techniques tend to focus on providing accurate representation of content, and often the tone of the content is ignored. Tone of the content sets a baseline for how a reader perceives the content. As such being able to generate summary with tone that is appropriate for the reader is important. In our work we implement Maximal Marginal Relevance [MMR] based multi-document text summarization and propose a naïve model to change tone of the summarization by setting a bias to specific set of words and restricting other words in the summarization output. This bias towards a specified set of words produces a summary whose tone is same as tone of specified words.
