  • Publication number: 20170161372
    Abstract: The disclosed invention performs a set of operations on an email to analyze the text and generate a coherent summary. Email summaries are generated by applying a coherence layer after a ranking process. Analyzing how sentences relate to each other via discourse markers and other linguistic devices aids in enhancing coherence of the email summaries. Output summaries are more coherent and easier to understand because they mimic the flow of ideas contained in the original message instead of merely being a collection of extracted sentences. Tasks may also be extracted from the text of the email to assist users in keeping track of tasks that they receive via email.

  • Publication number: 20160335234
    Abstract: Systems and methods for summarizing online articles for consumption on a user device are disclosed herein. The system extracts the main body of an article's text from the HTML code of an online article. The system may then classify the extracted article into one of several different categories and removes duplicate articles. The system breaks down the article into its component sentences, and each sentence is classified into one of three categories: (1) potential candidate sentences that may be included in the generated summary; (2) weakly rejected sentences that will not be included in the summary but may be used to generate the summary; and (3) strongly rejected sentences that are not included in the summary. Finally, the system applies a document summarizer to generate quickly readable article summaries, for viewing on the user device, using relevant sentences from the article while maintaining the coherence of the article.
