Abstract: Embodiments may provide automated summarization of documents, such as scientific documents by using a prior distribution on logical sections learnt from a corpus of human authored summaries. For example, a method of document summarization may comprise receiving, at the computer system, a document and segmenting the document into a plurality of sentences, identifying, at the computer system, sections in the document and aligning each sentence in the document to a section logical role, and summarizing, at the computer system, the document using a probability distribution.

Abstract: A system for generating a multi-modal summary of a digital document, comprising a processor adapted for: extracting from the document a plurality of graphical elements; generating a set of textual descriptions, each generated for one of the graphical elements and associated therewith; selecting, from the set of textual descriptions and a set of text fragments extracted from the document, a set of representative elements having a highest score computed by applying thereto a score function, where a set of representative elements' score is indicative of a degree by which the set of representative elements represents the document; for each representative element of the set of representative elements, where the element is a textual description of a graphical element of the plurality of graphical elements, replacing the element with the graphical element associated therewith; and generating, using the set of representative elements, another document comprising a multi-modal summary of the document.

Abstract: Automated keyphrase extraction from a digital text document. A pool of candidate keyphrases of the digital text document is created. A cross-entropy method is then employed to compute a set of output keyphrases out of the pool of candidate keyphrases, by iteratively optimizing an objective function that is configured to cause the set of output keyphrases to be descriptive of one or more main topics discussed in the digital text document. The set of output keyphrases may be used for at least one of: text summarization, text categorization, opinion mining, and document indexing.

Abstract: A system for generating a summary of a text document is disclosed. In some examples, the system includes a processor configured to generate an initial summary of an original document. The initial summary includes a selection of extracted sentences copied from the original document. For each extracted sentence of the initial summary, the processor processes the extracted sentence to generate an abstracted sentence, and generates vector representations of the extracted sentence, the abstracted sentence, the original document, and the current summary. The vector representations are then input to a decision network to compute an editing decision. The editing decision is selected from a group of possible decisions that includes a decision to add the extracted sentence and a decision to add the abstracted sentence. The processor also updates the current summary based on the editing decision.
